context_page_description: Molybdenum diselenide is an inorganic compound of molybdenum and selenium. Its structure is similar to that of MoS
  ₂. Compounds of this category are known as transition metal dichalcogenides, abbreviated TMDCs. These compounds, as the name suggests, are made up of a transition metals and elements of group 16 on the periodic table of the elements. Compared to MoS
  ₂, MoSe
  ₂ exhibits higher electrical conductivity.
