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: 36Citation - Scopus: 34Raman Fingerprint of Stacking Order in Hfs2-Ca(oh)(2) Heterobilayer(American Physical Society, 2019) Yağmurcukardeş, Mehmet; Özen, Sercan; İyikanat, Fadıl; Peeters, François M.; Şahin, HasanUsing density functional theory-based first-principles calculations, we investigate the stacking order dependence of the electronic and vibrational properties of HfS2-Ca(OH)(2) heterobilayer structures. It is shown that while the different stacking types exhibit similar electronic and optical properties, they are distinguishable from each other in terms of their vibrational properties. Our findings on the vibrational properties are the following: (i) from the interlayer shear (SM) and layer breathing (LBM) modes we are able to deduce the AB' stacking order, (ii) in addition, the AB' stacking type can also be identified via the phonon softening of E-g(I) and A(g)(III) modes which harden in the other two stacking types, and (iii) importantly, the ultrahigh frequency regime possesses distinctive properties from which we can distinguish between all stacking types. Moreover, the differences in optical and vibrational properties of various stacking types are driven by two physical effects, induced biaxial strain on the layers and the layer-layer interaction. Our results reveal that with both the phonon frequencies and corresponding activities, the Raman spectrum possesses distinctive properties for monitoring the stacking type in novel vertical heterostructures constructed by alkaline-earth-metal hydroxides.Article Citation - WoS: 25Citation - Scopus: 30Thinning Cspb2br5 Perovskite Down To Monolayers: Cs-Dependent Stability(American Physical Society, 2017) İyikanat, Fadıl; Sarı, Emre; Şahin, HasanUsing first-principles density functional theory calculations, we systematically investigate the structural, electronic, and vibrational properties of bulk and potential single-layer structures of perovskitelike CsPb2Br5 crystal. It is found that while Cs atoms have no effect on the electronic structure, their presence is essential for the formation of stable CsPb2Br5 crystals. The calculated vibrational spectra of the crystal reveal that not only the bulk form but also the single-layer forms of CsPb2Br5 are dynamically stable. Predicted single-layer forms can exhibit either semiconducting or metallic character. Moreover, the modification of the structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of single-layer CsPb2Br5 upon formation of vacancy defects is investigated. It is found that the formation of Br vacancy (i) has the lowest formation energy, (ii) significantly changes the electronic structure, and (iii) leads to ferromagnetic ground state in the single-layer CsPb2Br5. However, the formation of Pb and Cs vacancies leads to p-type doping of the single-layer structure. Results reported herein reveal that the single-layer CsPb2Br5 crystal is a novel stable perovskite with enhanced functionality and a promising candidate for nanodevice applications.Article Citation - WoS: 35Citation - Scopus: 33Portlandite Crystal: Bulk, Bilayer, and Monolayer Structures(American Physical Society, 2015) Aierken, Y.; Şahin, Hasan; İyikanat, Fadıl; Horzum, Şeyda; Süslü, A.; Chen, B.; Senger, Ramazan Tugrul; Tongay, S.; Peeters, François M.Ca(OH)2 crystals, well known as portlandite, are grown in layered form, and we found that they can be exfoliated on different substrates. We performed first principles calculations to investigate the structural, electronic, vibrational, and mechanical properties of bulk, bilayer, and monolayer structures of this material. Different from other lamellar structures such as graphite and transition-metal dichalcogenides, intralayer bonding in Ca(OH)2 is mainly ionic, while the interlayer interaction remains a weak dispersion-type force. Unlike well-known transition-metal dichalcogenides that exhibit an indirect-to-direct band gap crossover when going from bulk to a single layer, Ca(OH)2 is a direct band gap semiconductor independent of the number layers. The in-plane Young's modulus and the in-plane shear modulus of monolayer Ca(OH)2 are predicted to be quite low while the in-plane Poisson ratio is larger in comparison to those in the monolayer of ionic crystal BN. We measured the Raman spectrum of bulk Ca(OH)2 and identified the high-frequency OH stretching mode A1g at 3620cm-1. In this study, bilayer and monolayer portlandite [Ca(OH)2] are predicted to be stable and their characteristics are analyzed in detail. Our results can guide further research on ultrathin hydroxites.
