Article Citation - WoS: 30Citation - Scopus: 29Stacking-Dependent Excitonic Properties of Bilayer Blue Phosphorene(American Physical Society, 2019) İyikanat, Fadıl; Torun, Engin; Senger, Ramazan Tuğrul; Şahin, HasanAb initio calculations in the framework of many-body perturbation theory (MBPT) are performed to calculate the electronic and optical properties of monolayer and bilayer blue phosphorene with different stacking configurations. It is found that the stacking configuration of bilayer blue phosphorene strongly affects the electronic band gap of the material. By solving the Bethe-Salpeter equation (BSE) on top of the G(0)W(0) calculation, the binding energies, spectral positions, and band decomposition of excitons of monolayer and bilayer configurations are investigated. The most prominent two excitonic peaks of bilayers are examined in detail. Our calculations show that different stacking configurations lead to distinct interlayer interaction characteristics which lead to substantial change in the optical spectrum of bilayer blue phosphorene. Mostly intralayer and mixed interlayer excitons with quite high binding energies are obtained in bilayer blue phosphorene. Our results show that excitonic properties of ultrathin materials play an important role in tuning and improving the optoelectronic performance of two-dimensional materials.Article Citation - WoS: 18Citation - Scopus: 18Ab Initio and Semiempirical Modeling of Excitons and Trions in Monolayer Tis3(American Physical Society, 2018) Torun, Engin; Şahin, Hasan; Chaves, A.; Wirtz, Ludger; Peeters, François M.We explore the electronic and the optical properties of monolayer TiS3, which shows in-plane anisotropy and is composed of a chain-like structure along one of the lattice directions. Together with its robust direct band gap, which changes very slightly with stacking order and with the thickness of the sample, the anisotropic physical properties of TiS3 make the material very attractive for various device applications. In this study, we present a detailed investigation on the effect of the crystal anisotropy on the excitons and the trions of the TiS3 monolayer. We use many-body perturbation theory to calculate the absorption spectrum of anisotropic TiS3 monolayer by solving the Bethe-Salpeter equation. In parallel, we implement and use a Wannier-Mott model for the excitons that takes into account the anisotropic effective masses and Coulomb screening, which are obtained from ab initio calculations. This model is then extended for the investigation of trion states of monolayer TiS3. Our calculations indicate that the absorption spectrum of monolayer TiS3 drastically depends on the polarization of the incoming light, which excites different excitons with distinct binding energies. In addition, the binding energies of positively and the negatively charged trions are observed to be distinct and they exhibit an anisotropic probability density distribution.Article Citation - WoS: 45Citation - Scopus: 45Mg(OH)2-WS2 van der Waals heterobilayer: Electric field tunable band-gap crossover(American Physical Society, 2016) Yağmurcukardeş, Mehmet; Torun, Engin; Senger, Ramazan Tuğrul; Peeters, François M.; Şahin, HasanMagnesium hydroxide [Mg(OH)2] has a layered brucitelike structure in its bulk form and was recently isolated as a new member of two-dimensional monolayer materials. We investigated the electronic and optical properties of monolayer crystals of Mg(OH)2 and WS2 and their possible heterobilayer structure by means of first-principles calculations. It was found that both monolayers of Mg(OH)2 and WS2 are direct-gap semiconductors and these two monolayers form a typical van der Waals heterostructure with a weak interlayer interaction and a type-II band alignment with a staggered gap that spatially separates electrons and holes. We also showed that an out-of-plane electric field induces a transition from a staggered to a straddling-type heterojunction. Moreover, by solving the Bethe-Salpeter equation on top of single-shot G0W0 calculations, we show that the low-energy spectrum of the heterobilayer is dominated by the intralyer excitons of the WS2 monolayer. Because of the staggered interfacial gap and the field-tunable energy-band structure, the Mg(OH)2-WS2 heterobilayer can become an important candidate for various optoelectronic device applications in nanoscale.Article Citation - WoS: 40Citation - Scopus: 40Nitrogenated, Phosphorated and Arsenicated Monolayer Holey Graphenes(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2015) Yağmurcukardeş, Mehmet; Horzum, Şeyda; Torun, Engin; Peeters, François M.; Senger, Ramazan TuğrulMotivated by a recent experiment that reported the synthesis of a new 2D material nitrogenated holey graphene (C2N) [Mahmood et al., Nat. Commun., 2015, 6, 6486], the electronic, magnetic, and mechanical properties of nitrogenated (C2N), phosphorated (C2P) and arsenicated (C2As) monolayer holey graphene structures are investigated using first-principles calculations. Our total energy calculations indicate that, similar to the C2N monolayer, the formation of the other two holey structures are also energetically feasible. Calculated cohesive energies for each monolayer show a decreasing trend going from the C2N to C2As structure. Remarkably, all the holey monolayers considered are direct band gap semiconductors. Regarding the mechanical properties (in-plane stiffness and Poisson ratio), we find that C2N has the highest in-plane stiffness and the largest Poisson ratio among the three monolayers. In addition, our calculations reveal that for the C2N, C2P and C2As monolayers, creation of N and P defects changes the semiconducting behavior to a metallic ground state while the inclusion of double H impurities in all holey structures results in magnetic ground states. As an alternative to the experimentally synthesized C2N, C2P and C2As are mechanically stable and flexible semiconductors which are important for potential applications in optoelectronics.
