Dialkali-Metal Monochalcogenide Semiconductors with High Mobility and Tunable Magnetism.
Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters 2018 November 7
The discovery of archetypal two-dimensional (2D) materials provides enormous opportunities in both fundamental breakthroughs and device applications, as evident by the research booming in graphene, transition-metal chalcogenides, and black phosphorous. Here, we report a new, large family of semiconducting dialkali-metal monochalcogenides (DMMCs) with an inherent A2 X monolayer (ML) structure, in which two alkali sub-MLs form hexagonal close packing and sandwich the triangular chalcogen atomic plane. Such unique lattice leads to extraordinary physical properties, such as good dynamical and thermal stability, visible to near-infrared energy gap, and high electron mobility. Most strikingly, DMMC MLs host extended van Hove singularities near the valence band (VB) edge, readily accessible by moderate hole doping within 1.0×1013 cm-2 . Upon critical doping, DMMC MLs undergo spontaneous ferromagnetic transition when the top VBs become fully spin-polarized by strong exchange interactions. Such 2D gate tunable magnetism are promising for exploring novel device concepts in spintronics, electronics and optoelectronics.
