Arpit Bhardwaj, Phanish Suryanarayana

摘要:

从第一性原理出发,研究了Janus过渡金属二硫属化物(TMD)纳米管的机电响应。特别是,考虑到扶手椅和锯齿形变体的27个选择Janus TMD纳米管,我们确定带隙和电荷载流子的有效质量的变化时,轴向和扭转变形,使用密度泛函理论(DFT)。我们观察到,金属纳米管保持不受影响,而在半导体纳米管的带隙线性和二次轴向和剪切应变,分别减少,导致半导体-金属过渡。此外,我们还发现随着应变的增加,空穴和电子的有效质量分别不断减小和增加,从而导致n型-p型半导体的转变.我们表明,这种行为是轨道的再杂化的结果,而不是原子之间的电荷转移。总的来说,机械变形形成了一个强大的工具,用于定制半导体Janus TMD纳米管的电子响应。

英文摘要:

We study the electromechanical response of Janus transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) nanotubes from first principles. In particular, considering both armchair and zigzag variants of twenty-seven select Janus TMD nanotubes, we determine the change in bandgap and charge carriers' effective mass upon axial and torsional deformations using density functional theory (DFT). We observe that metallic nanotubes remain unaffected, whereas the bandgap in semiconducting nanotubes decreases linearly and quadratically with axial and shear strains, respectively, leading to semiconductor--metal transitions. In addition, we find that there is a continuous decrease and increase in the effective mass of holes and electrons with strains, respectively, leading to n-type--p-type semiconductor transitions. We show that this behavior is a consequence of the rehybridization of orbitals, rather than charge transfer between the atoms. Overall, mechanical deformations form a powerful tool for tailoring the electronic response of semiconducting Janus TMD nanotubes.
