The edge-related mechanical properties of fluorographene nanoribbons are investigated by means of first-principles calculations. It is found that for the four selected types of ribbons, edge energy quickly reaches a plateau when the width of ribbons exceeds 10 Å and then slowly increases at a rather small rate. Compressive and tensile edge stresses are found in ribbons with armchair and zigzag edges, respectively. The edge stresses are width dependent and also evidently smaller than those of graphene nanoribbons. This is understood to be due to the thickness effect of the two-dimensional (2D) layer structure of fluorographene. The in-plane stiffness and residual strains are also obtained for the selected fluorographene nanoribbons. The calculated in-plane stiffness gradually decreases as the ribbon width increases and approaches the counterpart of bulky fluorographene. Tensile and compressive residual strains led to armchair- and zigzag-edged fluorographene nanoribbons due to their different edge stresses, and both of them approach vanishing as the width increases since a larger width is equivalent to a larger stretch stiffness.

AbstractUtilizing a two-dimensional material in an electronic device as channel layer inevitably involves the formation of contacts with metallic electrodes. As these contacts can dramatically affect the behavior of the device, we study the electronic properties of monolayer Janus MoSSe in contact with different metallic electrodes by first-principles calculations, focusing on the differences in the characteristics of contacts with the two sides of MoSSe. In particular, we demonstrate that the Fermi level pinning is different for the two sides of MoSSe, with the magnitude resembling that of MoS2 or MoSe2, while both sides can form Ohmic contacts with common electrode materials without any further adaptation, which is an outstanding advantage over MoS2 and MoSe2.
