Ferromagnetic and half-metallic phase transition by doping in a one-dimensional narrow-bandgap W₆PCl₁₇ semiconductor

Abstract

Based on the first-principles calculations, we predict a one-dimensional (1D) semiconductor with cluster-type structure, namely phosphorus-centered tungsten chloride W6PCl17. The corresponding single-chain system can be prepared from its bulk counterpart...

Novel ternary Zintl phosphide halides Ba3P5X (X = Cl, Br) with 1D helical phosphorus chains: synthesis, crystal and electronic structure

“…16–20 Recently discovered pnictide halides and pnictohalides, such as A 2 As 7 X (A = Ba, Sr, Eu; X = Cl, Br, I) or W 6 PCl 17 , are considered unique low-dimensional semiconductors with promising tunability that may lead to the discovery of promising electronic and spintronic materials. 20,21…”
