Abstract
As an important metal phosphides material, 2D tin phosphides (SnPx 0 < x ≤ 3) have been theoretically predicted to have intriguing physicochemical properties and potential applications in electronics, optoelectronics, and energy fields. However, the synthesis of high-quality 2D SnP single crystal has not been reported due to the lack of efficiency and reliable growth method. Here, a facile atmospheric pressure chemical vapor deposition (APCVD) method is developed to realize the growth of high-quality 2D SnP nanosheets, by employing tin (Sn) foil as both liquid metal substrates and reaction precursor. Temperature-dependent and angle-resolved polarization Raman spectra observed Raman peaks located at 142.6, 303.3, and 444.2 cm-1 are concluded to belong to A1g mode, which are consistent with the theoretical calculation results. Moreover, the field-effect transistor (FET) devices based on SnP nanosheets show a typical n-type characteristic with an on/off ratio of 103 at 200 K. SnP nanosheets also demonstrate excellent photoresponse performance under the illumination of 473, 532, and 639 nm lasers, which can be tuned by Vgs , Vds , and light power density. It is believed that these findings can provide the first-hand experimental information for the future study of 2D SnP nanosheets.

[PMID: 33871928 DOI: 10.1002/cphc.202100055] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2021] [Revised: 04/14/2021] [Indexed: 11/07/2022]
Abstract
Based on first-principles calculations, a novel family of two-dimensional (2D) IV-V compounds, XC6 (X=N, P, As and Sb), is proposed. These compounds exhibit excellent stability, as determined from the cohesive energies, phonon dispersion analysis, ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations, and mechanical properties. In this type of structure, the carbon atom is sp2 hybridized, whereas the X (N, P, As and Sb) atom is nonplanar sp3 hybridized with one 2pz orbital filled with lone pair electrons. NC6 , PC6 , AsC6 and SbC6 monolayers are intrinsic indirect semiconductors with wide bandgaps of 2.02, 2.36, 2.77, and 2.85 eV (based on HSE06 calculations), respectively. After applying mechanical strain, PC6 , AsC6 and SbC6 monolayers can be transformed from indirect to direct semiconductors. The appropriate bandgaps and well-located band edge positions make XC6 monolayers potential materials for photocatalytic water splitting. XC6 family members also have high absorption coefficients (∼105 cm-1 ) in the ultraviolet region and higher electron mobilities (∼103 cm2 V-1 s-1 ) than many known 2D semiconductors.
