Using density functional theory calculations, the structural, electronic and magnetic properties of a black phosphorene/TlS heterostructure (BP/TlS) and the BP/TlS intercalated with transition metal atoms (TMs) have been detailed investigated. It is demonstrated that the BP/TlS is a type-I van der Waals (vdW) heterostructure with an indirect band gap of approximately 0.79 eV. The BP/TlS experiences a transition from type-I to type-II when various strains are applied. In addition, the BP/TlS intercalated with TMs (TM-BP/TlS) exhibits various kinds of meaningful electronic and magnetic properties. Several TM-BP/TlS systems are still non-magnetic ground states and six TM-BP/TlS (Ti-, V-, Cr-, Mn-, Fe-, Tc-) systems are ferromagnetic. Interestingly, three TM-BP/TlS (V-, Cr-, Mn-) systems display half-metallic character. The Fe-BP/TlS and Tc-BP/TlS are dilute magnetic semiconductors (DMSs), while TM-BP/TlS (Mo-, Pd-, Ni-) systems are semiconductors. The other TM-BP/TlS systems become metals. These results may open a new avenue for application of the BP/TlS in future spintronic and electronic devices.
利用密度泛函理论计算,对黑磷烯/TlS异质结构(BP/TlS)以及插入过渡金属原子(TMs)的BP/TlS的结构、电子和磁性进行了详细研究。结果表明,BP/TlS是一种I型范德华(vdW)异质结构,间接带隙约为0.79 eV。施加各种应变时,BP/TlS会经历从I型到II型的转变。此外,插入TMs的BP/TlS(TM-BP/TlS)表现出各种有意义的电子和磁性。几个TM-BP/TlS系统仍为非磁性基态,六个TM-BP/TlS(Ti-、V-、Cr-、Mn-、Fe-、Tc-)系统为铁磁性。有趣的是,三个TM-BP/TlS(V-、Cr-、Mn-)系统表现出半金属特性。Fe-BP/TlS和Tc-BP/TlS是稀磁半导体(DMSs),而TM-BP/TlS(Mo-、Pd-、Ni-)系统是半导体。其他TM-BP/TlS系统变成金属。这些结果可能为BP/TlS在未来自旋电子和电子器件中的应用开辟一条新途径。
