We have investigated the effect of uniform plane strain on the electronic properties of monolayer 1T-TiS2using first-principles calculations. With the appropriate tensile strain, the material properties can be transformed from a semimetal to a direct band gap semiconductor.

Graphene-like borocarbonitride (g-BC6N) has a direct-band gap of 1.833 eV, high carrier mobility comparable to that of black phosphorene and a pair of inequivalent valleys with opposite Berry curvatures in K and K′ points.

This paper constructs a new type of two-dimensional graphene-like Janus GaInSTe monolayer and systematically investigates its structural and electronic properties as well as the effect of external electric field using first-principles calculations. In the ground state, Janus GaInSTe monolayer is dynamically stable with no imaginary frequencies in its phonon spectrum and possesses a direct band gap semiconductor. The band gap of Janus GaInSTe monolayer can be tuned by applying an electric field, which leads the different transitions from semiconductor to metal, and from indirect to direct band gap. These findings show a great potential application of Janus GaInSTe material for designing next-generation devices.

AbstractElectronic properties of the n-doping--insulator--p-doping--insulator structures in ultra thin strained [001] Si - Ge superlattice have been studied theoretically. The Ge - layer is used as one of the insulating region. The Al and As atoms are treated as impurities. The superlattice ((Si)10 -(Ge)2) exhibits an indirect gap in reciprocal space and the staggered band alignment in real space. With doping, the samples show a direct band gap and staggered band alignment. The acceptor state is associated with the Al-Si bonding state, while the donor state is derived from the As s-like state. The separation of the charge carriers in the real space can be obtained.
