Based on the first principles of the GGA method, the magnetic and optical properties of intrinsic SnS2, Fe, Cr mono-doped SnS2 and (Fe, Cr) co-doped SnS2 are studied. The results...
The two-dimensional heterostructures with type-II band alignment and super-high carrier mobility offer an updated perspective for photovoltaic devices. Here, based on the first-principles calculation, a novel vertical NGyne/GaSe heterostructure with an intrinsic type-II band alignment, super-high carrier mobility (104 cm2V-1s-1), and strong visible to ultraviolet light absorption (104~105 cm-1) is constructed. We investigate the electronic structure and the interfacial properties of the NGyne/GaSe heterostructure under electric field and strain. The band offsets and band gap of the NGyne/GaSe heterostructure can be regulated under applied vertical electric field and strain efficiently. Further study reveals that the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the NGyne/GaSe heterostructure is vastly improved under a negative electric field and reaches up to 25.09%. Meanwhile, near-free electron states are induced under a large applied electric field, leading to the NGyne/GaSe heterostructure transform from semiconductors to metal. Our results indicate that the NGyne/GaSe heterostructure will have extremely potential in optoelectronic devices, especially solar cells.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
