研究目的
To explore new functional 2D materials with high carrier mobility, moderate bandgap, and excellent open-air stability, specifically focusing on 18 monolayer metal oxides.
研究成果
The 18 monolayer metal oxides are energetically favorable and exhibit superior properties such as high oxidation resistance, wide bandgaps (1.22–6.48 eV), high carrier mobilities (up to 8540 cm2 V?1 s?1), and significant ultraviolet absorption. They are promising for applications in electronic devices, photodetectors, and photocatalysis, with potential for future experimental realization and integration into optoelectronic systems.
研究不足
The study is theoretical and relies on computational models, which may not fully capture experimental conditions. Some monolayers are predicted to be metastable, and the accuracy depends on the functional used (e.g., HSE06 may still have limitations). Experimental synthesis and validation are not performed, and the calculations assume ideal conditions without defects or environmental factors.
1：Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study employs first-principles calculations based on density functional theory (DFT) using the Vienna ab initio simulation package (VASP) with the HSE06 hybrid functional for accurate electronic structure and optical property calculations. Particle-swarm optimization (PSO) is used to predict stable monolayer structures for some oxides.
2：Sample Selection and Data Sources:
18 monolayer metal oxides (e.g., ZrO?, HfO?, InO) are selected, with structures derived from bulk counterparts or predicted via PSO. Data sources include computational models and existing literature on bulk materials.
