    Dimensionality Effects in Anisotropic Single Layers TiSe5 and TiTe5: a Comparative Study of 2D Sheets and 1D Nanochains
    (IOP Publishing Ltd, 2026) Can Dogan, Kadir; Kutay Tamdogan, Omer; Bozkurt, Yagmur; Cetin, Zebih; Yagmurcukardes, Mehmet
    In this study, we present a comprehensive first-principles investigation of the structural, vibrational, and electronic properties of titanium pentachalcogenide structures in both two-dimensional (2D) and one-dimensional (1D) nanochain (NC) forms. Total energy and geometry optimizations reveal that the 2D TiX5 (X = Se, Te) structures exhibit in-plane anisotropy arising from the trigonal prismatic TiX3 units interconnected via the chalcogenide chains. Phonon band dispersions and elastic tensor elements confirm the dynamical and mechanical stability of the 2D layers, respectively. Electronically, while TiTe5 is a metal, TiSe5 possesses direct band gap semiconducting behavior. In addition, free-standing 1D NC counterparts, which are sub-units of the 2D structures, are investigated by means of their stability. Three stable 1D NCs, namely TiTe5-NC, TiSe7-NC, and TiTe7-NC, are found to be composed of edge-sharing TiX6-like units with either five- or seven-fold coordination. The dynamically stable 1D NCs are shown to be semiconductors with relatively larger band gaps as compared to 2D layers. Predicted Raman spectra reveal clear signatures of vibrational mode evaluations as a result of quantum confinement from the 2D layer to the 1D NC. Moreover, finite-temperature ab-initio quantum molecular dynamics simulations at 300 K confirm the thermal stability of both the 2D TiX5 layers and 1D NC derivatives, showing that the Ti-based systems retain their structural integrity under ambient conditions and are feasible candidates for experimental synthesis. Our findings highlight the formation of stable semiconducting 1D NCs of Ti-pentachalcogenides from their 2D counterparts.

    Novel Single Layers of Holey Crystalline Strcutures of Hf8s12 With Diverse Magnetic States
    (Elsevier, 2025) Kutlu, Tayfun; Ercem, Onur; Yagmurcukardes, Mehmet; Sahin, Hasan
    Motivated by recent experiments revealing the synthesizability of novel M 8 X 12 (where M=transition metal and X=S, Se, or Te) type holey structure transition metal chalcogenide crystals such as W8Se12, the structural, electronic and vibrational properties of the single layer Hf8S12 are investigated. Density functional theory (DFT) based total energy optimizations and dynamic stability analysis show that hafnium disulfide crystals with the known 1T phase are stabilized in the holey crystal structure represented by the chemical formula Hf8S12. While 1T-HfS2 crystals are nonmagnetic, holey Hf8S12 material exhibits 4 different magnetic states along with the ferromagnetic ground state. All these magnetic states display indirect or quasi-indirect narrow bandgap semiconducting behavior. Moreover, it is shown that the in-plane stiffness and Poisson ratio values of each possible magnetic phase of Hf8S12 has a distinctive angle dependency against applied strain. Its stable crystal structure and the magnetic diversity show that Hf8S12 can bean important candidate for magneto-mechanical applications.
