Article Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 9Toward Optimized Charge Transport in Multilayer Reduced Graphene Oxides(American Chemical Society, 2022) Çınar, Mustafa Neşet; Antidormi, Aleandro; Nguyen, Viet-Hung; Kovtun, Alessandro; Lara-Avila, Samuel; Liscio, Andrea; Charlier, Jean-Christophe; Roche, Stephan; Sevinçli, HaldunIn the context of graphene-based composite applications, a complete understanding of charge conduction in multilayer reduced graphene oxides (rGO) is highly desirable. However, these rGO compounds are characterized by multiple and different sources of disorder depending on the chemical method used for their synthesis. Most importantly, the precise role of interlayer interaction in promoting or jeopardizing electronic flow remains unclear. Here, thanks to the development of a multiscale computational approach combining first-principles calculations with large-scale transport simulations, the transport scaling laws in multilayer rGO are unraveled, explaining why diffusion worsens with increasing film thickness. In contrast, contacted films are found to exhibit an opposite trend when the mean free path becomes shorter than the channel length, since conduction becomes predominantly driven by interlayer hopping. These predictions are favorably compared with experimental data and open a road toward the optimization of graphene-based composites with improved electrical conduction.Article Citation - WoS: 32Citation - Scopus: 33Ballistic Thermoelectric Transport Properties of Two-Dimensional Group Iii-Vi Monolayers(American Physical Society, 2021) Çınar, Mustafa Neşet; Özbal Sargın, Gözde; Sevim, Koray; Özdamar, Burak; Kurt, Gizem; Sevinçli, HaldunBallistic transport and thermoelectric properties of group III-VI compounds (XY: X = B, Al, Ga, In, Tl; Y = O, S, Se, Te, Po) are investigated based on first-principles calculations and Landauer formalism. This large family is composed of 25 compounds which stands out with their unique electronic band structures. Mexican hat shaped valence band, which exhibits quartic energy-momentum relation gives rise to a sharp peak in the density of states as well as a steplike electronic transmission spectrum near the valence band edge. The intriguing electronic band structure and transport properties motivate us to explore thermoelectric properties of group III-VI monolayers. We find that, in addition to the stepwise transmission at the band edge, flat bands, valley degeneracy, and band degeneracy are the factors that enhance thermoelectric efficiencies. For heavier compounds, better thermoelectric efficiencies are possible for both n-type and p-type carriers.Article Citation - WoS: 134Citation - Scopus: 137Structural, Vibrational, and Electronic Properties of Single-Layer Hexagonal Crystals of Group Iv and V Elements(American Physical Society, 2018) Özdamar, Burak; Özbal, Gözde; Çınar, Mustafa Neşet; Sevim, Koray; Kurt, Gizem; Kaya, Birnur; Sevinçli, HaldunUsing first-principles density functional theory calculations, we investigate a family of stable two-dimensional crystals with chemical formula A2B2, where A and B belong to groups IV and V, respectively (A=C, Si, Ge, Sn, Pb; B=N, P, As, Sb, Bi). Two structural symmetries of hexagonal lattices P6m2 and P3m1 are shown to be dynamically stable, named as α- and β -phases correspondingly. Both phases have similar cohesive energies, and the α phase is found to be energetically favorable for structures except CP, CAs, CSb, and CBi, for which the β phase is favored. The effects of spin-orbit coupling and Hartree-Fock corrections to exchange correlation are included to elucidate the electronic structures. All structures are semiconductors except CBi and PbN, which have metallic character. SiBi, GeBi, and SnBi have direct band gaps, whereas the remaining semiconductor structures have indirect band gaps. All structures have quartic dispersion in their valence bands, some of which make the valence band maximum and resemble a mexican-hat shape. SnAs and PbAs have purely quartic valence band edges, i.e., E-αk4, a property reported for the first time. The predicted materials are candidates for a variety of applications. Owing to their wide band gaps, CP, SiN, SiP, SiAs, GeN, GeP can find their applications in optoelectronics. The relative band positions qualify a number of the structures as suitable for water splitting, where CN and SiAs are favorable at all pH values. Structures with quartic band edges are expected to be efficient for thermoelectric applications.
