Abstract:2D Janus monolayers and van der Waals heterostructures (vdWHs) exhibit fascinating physical properties because of the destruction of symmetry. The interface‐dependent electronic and optical properties of vdWHs constructed by Janus Ga2STe and Al2STe are explored. The results reveal that all interfaces vdWHs exhibit staggered (type‐II) band alignment. Specifically, the S/Te and Te/Te interfaces vdWHs are indirect bandgap semiconductors, while the S/S and Te/S interfaces vdWHs are direct bandgap semiconductors. T… Show more
“…2D aluminum-based materials have attracted significant interest due to their unique physico-chemical properties and wide range of potential applications. 40 Their exceptional electrical, optical, mechanical, and thermal properties, as well as their high surface-tovolume ratio, make these materials very versatile and have many possible applications in fields as diverse as electronics, optoelectronics, and energy storage. [41][42][43] The application of two-dimensional aluminum-based materials has the potential to yield manufacturing processes that are environmentally sustainable and economically efficient.…”
