Article Citation - WoS: 110Citation - Scopus: 109Structural, Electronic and Phononic Properties of Ptse2: From Monolayer To Bulk(IOP Publishing Ltd., 2018) Kandemir, Ali; Akbalı, Barış; Kahraman, Z.; Badalov, S. V.; Özcan, Mehmet; İyikanat, Fadıl; Şahin, HasanThe layer dependent structural, electronic and vibrational properties of the 1T phase of two dimensional (2D) platinum diselenide are investigated by means of state-of-the-art first-principles calculations. The main findings of the study are: (i) monolayer platinum diselenide has a dynamically stable 2D octahedral structure with 1.66 eV indirect band gap, (ii) the semiconducting nature of 1T-PtSe2 monolayers remains unaffected even at high biaxial strains, (iii) top-to-top (AA) arrangement is found to be energetically the most favorable stacking of 1T-PtSe2 layers, (iv) the lattice constant (layer-layer distance) increases (decreases) with increasing number of layers, (v) while monolayer and bilayer 1T-PtSe2 are indirect semiconductors, bulk and few-layered 1T-PtSe2 are metals, (vi) Raman intensity and peak positions of the A1g and Eg modes are found to be highly dependent on the layer thickness of the material, hence; the number of layers of the material can be determined via Raman measurements.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 8Hydrogenation-driven phase transition in single-layer TiSe2(IOP Publishing Ltd., 2017) İyikanat, Fadıl; Kandemir, Ali; Özaydın, H. Duygu; Senger, Ramazan Tuğrul; Şahin, HasanFirst-principles calculations based on density-functional theory are used to investigate the effects of hydrogenation on the structural, vibrational, thermal and electronic properties of the charge density wave (CDW) phase of single-layer TiSe2. It is found that hydrogenation of single-layer TiSe2 is possible through adsorption of a H atom on each Se site. Our total energy and phonon calculations reveal that a structural phase transition occurs from the CDW phase to the T d phase upon full hydrogenation. Fully hydrogenated TiSe2 presents a direct gap semiconducting behavior with a band gap of 119 meV. Full hydrogenation also leads to a significant decrease in the heat capacity of single-layer TiSe2.Article Citation - WoS: 31Citation - Scopus: 31Hydrogen-Induced Structural Transition in Single Layer Res2(IOP Publishing Ltd., 2017) Yağmurcukardeş, Mehmet; Bacaksız, Cihan; Senger, Ramazan Tuğrul; Şahin, HasanBy performing density functional theory-based calculations, we investigate how structural, electronic and mechanical properties of single layer ReS2 can be tuned upon hydrogenation of its surfaces. It is found that a stable, fully hydrogenated structure can be obtained by formation of strong S-H bonds. The optimized atomic structure of ReS2H2 is considerably different than that of the monolayer ReS2 which has a distorted-1T phase. By performing phonon dispersion calculations, we also predict that the Re2-dimerized 1T structure (called 1TRe2) of the ReS2H2 is dynamically stable. Unlike the bare ReS2 the 1TRe2–ReS2H2 structure which is formed by breaking the Re4 clusters into separated Re2 dimers, is an indirect-gap semiconductor. Furthermore, mechanical properties of the 1TRe2 phase in terms of elastic constants, in-plane stiffness (C) and Poisson ratio (ν) are investigated. It is found that full hydrogenation not only enhances the flexibility of the single layer ReS2 crystal but also increases anisotropy of the elastic constantsArticle Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 10Stability, Electronic and Phononic Properties of Ss and 1t Structures of Sitex (x = 1, 2) and Their Vertical Heterostructures(IOP Publishing Ltd., 2017) Kandemir, Ali; İyikanat, Fadıl; Şahin, HasanBy performing first-principles calculations, we predict a novel, stable single layer phase of silicon ditelluride, 1T-SiTe2, and its possible vertical heterostructures with single layer β-SiTe. Structural optimization and phonon calculations reveal that 1T-SiTe2 structure has a dynamically stable ground state. Further analysis of the vibrational spectrum at the - point shows that single layer 1T-SiTe2 has characteristic phonon modes at 80, 149, 191 and 294 cm-1. Electronic-band structure demonstrates that 1T-SiTe2 phase exhibits a nonmagnetic metallic ground state with a negligible intrinsic spinorbit splitting. Moreover, it is shown that similar structural parameters of 1T-SiTe2 and existing β-SiTe phases allows construction of 1T-β heterostructures with a negligible lattice mismatch. In this regard, it is found that two energetically favorable stacking orders, namely AA and ATB, have distinctive shear and layer breathing phonon modes. It is important to note that the combination of semiconducting β-SiTe and metallic 1T-SiTe2 building blocks forms ultra-thin Schottky barriers that can be used in nanoscale optoelectronic device technologies.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Structural Changes in a Schiff Base Molecular Assembly Initiated by Scanning Tunneling Microscopy Tip(IOP Publishing Ltd., 2016) Tomak, Aysel; Bacaksız, Cihan; Mendirek, Gizem; Şahin, Hasan; Hür, Deniz; Görgün, Kamuran; Senger, Ramazan Tuğrul; Birer, Özgür; Peeters, François M.; Zareie, Hadi M.We report the controlled self-organization and switching of newly designed Schiff base (E)-4-((4-(phenylethynyl) benzylidene) amino) benzenethiol (EPBB) molecules on a Au (111) surface at room temperature. Scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy (STM/STS) were used to image and analyze the conformational changes of the EPBB molecules. The conformational change of the molecules was induced by using the STM tip while increasing the tunneling current. The switching of a domain or island of molecules was shown to be induced by the STM tip during scanning. Unambiguous fingerprints of the switching mechanism were observed via STM/STS measurements. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering was employed, to control and identify quantitatively the switching mechanism of molecules in a monolayer. Density functional theory calculations were also performed in order to understand the microscopic details of the switching mechanism. These calculations revealed that the molecular switching behavior stemmed from the strong interaction of the EPBB molecules with the STM tip. Our approach to controlling intermolecular mechanics provides a path towards the bottom-up assembly of more sophisticated molecular machines.
