First-Principles Studies of Strain-Adjustable Janus WSSe Monolayer/g-GeC Monolayer Heterojunctions: Implications for Photoelectric and Switching Devices

“…This unique structure can lead to many novel applications and properties. 41,42 First, they can achieve multiple functions by modulating the difference in properties between the two sides. For example, in optical applications, the optical properties of various aspects of Janus materials can be tuned and tailored for use in light control, optical sensing, and photoelectric conversion.…”

“…The special feature of Janus materials lies in their asymmetric and nonhomogeneous structure; i.e., the two sides of the material have different properties and functions. This unique structure can lead to many novel applications and properties. , First, they can achieve multiple functions by modulating the difference in properties between the two sides. For example, in optical applications, the optical properties of various aspects of Janus materials can be tuned and tailored for use in light control, optical sensing, and photoelectric conversion. − In electronics, Janus materials can be used for controlled electron transport, enabling efficient electronic devices and circuits. − Second, the asymmetric structure of 2D Janus materials can be used in multiple functions.…”
