Abstract. The single crystals of In x MoSe 2 (0 ≤ x ≤ 1) and Re-doped MoSe 2 viz. MoRe 0.005 Se 1.995 , MoRe 0.001 Se 1.999 and Mo 0.995 Re 0.005 Se 2 have been grown by a direct vapour transport technique (DVT) in the laboratory. Structural characterization of these crystals was made using the XRD method. The particle size for a number of reflections has been calculated using the Scherrer formula. There are considerable variations appearing in deformation (α) and growth (β) fault probabilities in In x MoSe 2 (0 ≤ x ≤ 1) and Re-doped MoSe 2 single crystals due to their off-stoichiometry, which possesses the stacking fault in the single crystal.
