The lattice mismatch between a monolayer of MoS2 and its Au(111) substrate induces a moiré superstructure. The local variation of the registry between sulfur and gold atoms at the interface leads to a periodic pattern of strongly and weakly interacting regions. In consequence, also the electronic bands show a spatial variation.
We use scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy (STM/STS), x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and x-ray standing wave (XSW) for a determination of the atomic structure and the resulting electronic properties. The experimental results are corroborated by density functional theory (DFT). We deduce the structure of the supercell with high precision, identify the fraction of interfacial atoms that are strongly interacting, and analyze the variation of the electronic structure in dependence of the location within the moiré cell and the nature of the band.
