Article Citation - WoS: 24Citation - Scopus: 24Defect Tolerant and Dimension Dependent Ferromagnetism in Mnse2(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2019) Eren, İsmail; İyikanat, Fadıl; Şahin, HasanBy performing density functional theory-based calculations, we investigate the structural, vibrational, electronic and magnetic properties of 2D monolayers, nanoribbons and quantum dots of MnSe2. Vibrational spectrum analysis reveals the dynamical stability of not only ferromagnetic but also antiferromagnetic phases of single layer MnSe2 crystal structures. Electronically, calculations show that 1T-MnSe2 is a ferromagnetic structure displaying metallic behavior. It is also found that the structure preserves its dynamical stability and metallic behavior even under the presence of high density Se vacancies. Moreover, it was predicted that, differing from the 2D MnSe2, metal-metal interaction driven reconstructions result in ferromagnetic-to-antiferromagnetic crossover in the ground state of nanoribbons and quantum dots. With its robust ferromagnetic metallic character in the 2D ultra-thin limit and dimension-dependent magnetic properties, MnSe2 is an important candidate for spintronic device applications.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 8Hydrogenation-driven phase transition in single-layer TiSe2(IOP Publishing Ltd., 2017) İyikanat, Fadıl; Kandemir, Ali; Özaydın, H. Duygu; Senger, Ramazan Tuğrul; Şahin, HasanFirst-principles calculations based on density-functional theory are used to investigate the effects of hydrogenation on the structural, vibrational, thermal and electronic properties of the charge density wave (CDW) phase of single-layer TiSe2. It is found that hydrogenation of single-layer TiSe2 is possible through adsorption of a H atom on each Se site. Our total energy and phonon calculations reveal that a structural phase transition occurs from the CDW phase to the T d phase upon full hydrogenation. Fully hydrogenated TiSe2 presents a direct gap semiconducting behavior with a band gap of 119 meV. Full hydrogenation also leads to a significant decrease in the heat capacity of single-layer TiSe2.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 7Stable Ultra-Thin Cdte Crystal: a Robust Direct Gap Semiconductor(IOP Publishing Ltd., 2017) İyikanat, Fadıl; Akbalı, Barış; Kang, J.; Senger, Ramazan Tuğrul; Selamet, Yusuf; Şahin, HasanEmploying density functional theory based calculations, we investigate structural, vibrational and strain-dependent electronic properties of an ultra-thin CdTe crystal structure that can be derived from its bulk counterpart. It is found that this ultra-thin crystal has an 8-atom primitive unit cell with considerable surface reconstructions. Dynamic stability of the structure is predicted based on its calculated vibrational spectrum. Electronic band structure calculations reveal that both electrons and holes in single layer CdTe possess anisotropic in-plane masses and mobilities. Moreover, we show that the ultra-thin CdTe has some interesting electromechanical features, such as strain-dependent anisotropic variation of the band gap value, and its rapid increase under perpendicular compression. The direct band gap semiconducting nature of the ultra-thin CdTe crystal remains unchanged under all types of applied strain. With a robust and moderate direct band gap, single-layer CdTe is a promising material for nanoscale strain dependent device applications.Article Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 10Stability, Electronic and Phononic Properties of Ss and 1t Structures of Sitex (x = 1, 2) and Their Vertical Heterostructures(IOP Publishing Ltd., 2017) Kandemir, Ali; İyikanat, Fadıl; Şahin, HasanBy performing first-principles calculations, we predict a novel, stable single layer phase of silicon ditelluride, 1T-SiTe2, and its possible vertical heterostructures with single layer β-SiTe. Structural optimization and phonon calculations reveal that 1T-SiTe2 structure has a dynamically stable ground state. Further analysis of the vibrational spectrum at the - point shows that single layer 1T-SiTe2 has characteristic phonon modes at 80, 149, 191 and 294 cm-1. Electronic-band structure demonstrates that 1T-SiTe2 phase exhibits a nonmagnetic metallic ground state with a negligible intrinsic spinorbit splitting. Moreover, it is shown that similar structural parameters of 1T-SiTe2 and existing β-SiTe phases allows construction of 1T-β heterostructures with a negligible lattice mismatch. In this regard, it is found that two energetically favorable stacking orders, namely AA and ATB, have distinctive shear and layer breathing phonon modes. It is important to note that the combination of semiconducting β-SiTe and metallic 1T-SiTe2 building blocks forms ultra-thin Schottky barriers that can be used in nanoscale optoelectronic device technologies.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 2?-Silicene as Oxidation-Resistant Ultra-Thin Coating Material(Beilstein-Institut Zur Forderung der Chemischen Wissenschaften, 2017) Kandemir, Ali; İyikanat, Fadıl; Bacaksız, Cihan; Şahin, HasanBy performing density functional theory (DFT)-based calculations, the performance of a-silicene as oxidation-resistant coating on Ag(111) surface is investigated. First of all, it is shown that the Ag(111) surface is quite reactive against O atoms and O2 molecules. It is known that when single-layer silicene is formed on the Ag(111) surface, the 3 × 3-reconstructed phase, a-silicene, is the ground state. Our investigation reveals that as a coating layer, a-silicene (i) strongly absorbs single O atoms and (ii) absorbs O2 molecules by breaking the strong O-O bond. (iii) Even the hollow sites, which are found to be most favorable penetration path for oxygens, serves as high-energy oxidation barrier, and (iv) α-silicene becomes more protective and less permeable in the presence of absorbed O atom. It appears that single-layer silicene is a quite promising material for ultra-thin oxidation-protective coating applications.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Adsorption and Diffusion Characteristics of Lithium on Hydrogenated ?- and Ss-Silicene(Beilstein-Institut Zur Forderung der Chemischen Wissenschaften, 2017) İyikanat, Fadıl; Kandemir, Ali; Bacaksız, Cihan; Şahin, HasanUsing first-principles density functional theory calculations, we investigate adsorption properties and the diffusion mechanism of a Li atom on hydrogenated single-layer α- and β-silicene on a Ag(111) surface. It is found that a Li atom binds strongly on the surfaces of both α- and β-silicene, and it forms an ionic bond through the transfer of charge from the adsorbed atom to the surface. The binding energies of a Li atom on these surfaces are very similar. However, the diffusion barrier of a Li atom on H-α-Si is much higher than that on H-β-Si. The energy surface calculations show that a Li atom does not prefer to bind in the vicinity of the hydrogenated upper-Si atoms. Strong interaction between Li atoms and hydrogenated silicene phases and low diffusion barriers show that α- and β-silicene are promising platforms for Li-storage applications.Article Citation - WoS: 14Citation - Scopus: 14Quantum-Transport Characteristics of a P–n Junction on Single-Layer Tis3(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2016) İyikanat, Fadıl; Senger, Ramazan Tuğrul; Peeters, François M.; Şahin, HasanBy using density functional theory and non-equilibrium Green′s function-based methods, we investigated the electronic and transport properties of a TiS3 monolayer p–n junction. We constructed a lateral p–n junction on a TiS3 monolayer using Li and F adatoms. An applied bias voltage caused significant variability in the electronic and transport properties of the TiS3 p–n junction. In addition, the spin-dependent current–voltage characteristics of the constructed TiS3 p–n junction were analyzed. Important device characteristics were found, such as negative differential resistance and rectifying diode behaviors for spin-polarized currents in the TiS3 p–n junction. These prominent conduction properties of the TiS3 p–n junction offer remarkable opportunities for the design of nanoelectronic devices based on a recently synthesized single-layered material.
