Through first-principles calculations we study the electronic structures and optical properties of two-dimensional (2D) Sn[Formula: see text]Ti(Zr)[Formula: see text]S2 alloys. The results indicate that the band gap value of Sn[Formula: see text]Ti(Zr)[Formula: see text]S2 alloys is decreased continuously when Ti(Zr) concentration is increased, which is very beneficial to optoelectronic devices applications. Moreover, the static dielectric constant is increased when the Ti(Zr) concentration is increased in the 2D Sn[Formula: see text]Ti(Zr)[Formula: see text]S2 alloys. In addition, we also calculate the imaginary part [Formula: see text] dispersion of Sn[Formula: see text]Ti(Zr)[Formula: see text]S2 alloys along the plane with different Ti(Zr) concentrations. The threshold energy values decrease with increasing Ti(Zr) concentrations in the Sn[Formula: see text]Ti(Zr)[Formula: see text]S2 ternary alloys. Moreover, the calculations of formation energy also indicate that these 2D alloys can be fabricated under some experimental conditions. These results suggest that Ti(Zr) substituting Sn atom is an efficient way to tune the band gap and optical properties of 2D SnS2 nanosheets.

We investigate the geometry and electronic structures of α-Al2O3:VO + AlX systems based on first-principles calculations where VO represents one oxygen vacancy and AlX stands for IIIA atoms (B, Ga, In, and Tl) substituting of one Al atom. It is found that all the aluminates maintain the hexagonal symmetry as the pure α-Al2O3 structure and the lattice parameters a, b, and c are expanded with the increase of the IIIA atoms radius. The electronic property analysis indicates that the band gaps are considerably reduced and the reductions are also related to the radius of doping atoms. But unlike the situation of transition metal doped α-Al2O3 the decreases of the band gap are not due to the spreading of d states, but are mainly owing to the ns states at the bottom of the conduction band.
