## Abstract

We investigate on the plasmons of monolayer MoS2 in the presence of spin-orbit interactions (SOIs) under the random phase approximation. The theoretical study shows that two new and novel plasmonic modes can be achieved via inter spin sub-band transitions around the Fermi level duo to the SOIs. The plasmon modes are optic-like, which are very different from the plasmon modes reported recently in monolayer MoS2, and the other two-dimensional systems. The frequency of such plasmons increases with the increasing of the electron density or the spin polarizability, and decreases with the increasing of the wave vectors q. Our results exhibit some interesting features which can be utilized to the plasmonic and terahertz devices based on monolayer MoS2.
