    Thickness-Dependent Piezoelecticity of Black Arsenic From Few-Layer To Monolayer
    (Elsevier, 2023) Akgenç Hanedar, Berna; Ersan, Fatih; Altalhi, Tariq; Yağmurcukardeş, Mehmet; Yakobson, Boris
    Ultra-thin forms of black phosphorus (b-P) have been widely investigated due to its unique properties arising from the in-plane anisotropy in its crystal structure. Recently, two-dimensional (2D) forms of black arsenic (b-As) have also been added to the 2D family. In this study, the thickness-dependent structural, electronic, and piezoelectric properties of layered b-As are investigated by means of ab-initio calculations. The structural optimizations confirm the van der Waals type layered structure for both these structures. In addition, increasing the thickness is shown to result in the decreasing of the band gap arising from the confinement of electrons in the layers. In contrast to the case of b-P, it is revealed that a transition from indirect-to-direct band gap behavior can be found in b-As which can be important for optically identifying the single-layer structure. Moreover, the piezoelectric properties are investigated as a function of the number of layers. It is shown that while a single-layer of b-As does not exhibit piezoelectric features, even in the case of bilayer structures the piezoelectricity is created. Our results revealed the strong in-plane anisotropy in piezoelectric coefficients for the three-layer and thicker structures. We have shown that the out-of-plane piezoelectric properties can be achieved by non-centrosymmetric features in the out-of-plane direction in thicker structures of b-As.

    Identification of a Magnetic Phase Via a Raman Spectrum in Single-Layer Mnse: an Ab Initio Study
    (Elsevier, 2022) Yayak, Yankı Öncü; Şahin, Hasan; Yağmurcukardeş, Mehmet
    Motivated by the recent experimental realization of single-layer two-dimensional MnSe [ACS Nano2021, 15, 13794-13802], structural, magnetic, elastic, vibrational, and electronic properties of single-layer MnSe are investigated by using density functional theory-based calculations. Among four different magnetic phases, namely, ferromagnetic (FM) and Nẽel-, zigzag-, and stripy-antiferromagnetic (AFM) phases, the Nẽel-AFM structure is found to be the energetically most favorable phase. Structural optimizations show the formation of in-plane anisotropy within the structures of zigzag- and stripy-AFM phases in single-layer MnSe. For the dynamically stable four magnetic phases, predicted Raman spectra reveal that each phase exhibits distinctive vibrational features and can be distinguished from each other. In addition, the elastic constants indicate the mechanical stability of each magnetic phase in single-layer MnSe and reveal the soft nature of each phase. Moreover, electronic band dispersion calculations show the indirect band gap semiconducting nature with varying electronic band gap energies for all magnetic phases. Furthermore, the atomic orbital-based density of states reveals the existence of out-of-plane orbitals dominating the top valence states in zigzag- and stripy-AFM phases, giving rise to the localized states. The stability of different magnetic phases and their distinct vibrational and electronic properties make single-layer MnSe a promising candidate for nanoelectronic and spintronic applications.
