    High-Throughput Analysis of Tetragonal Transition Metal Xenes
    (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2022) Šabani, Denis; Milošević, Milorad V.; Yorulmaz, Uğur; Yağmurcukardeş, Mehmet; Sevik, Cem
    We report a high-throughput first-principles characterization of the structural, mechanical, electronic, and vibrational properties of tetragonal single-layer transition metal Xenes (t-TMXs). Our calculations revealed 22 dynamically, mechanically and chemically stable structures among the 96 possible free-standing layers present in the t-TMX family. As a fingerprint for their structural identification, we identified four characteristic Raman active phonon modes, namely three in-plane and one out-of-plane optical branches, with various intensities and frequencies depending on the material in question. Spin-polarized electronic calculations demonstrated that anti-ferromagnetic (AFM) metals, ferromagnetic (FM) metals, AFM semiconductors, and non-magnetic semiconductor materials exist within this family, evidencing the potential of t-TMXs for further use in multifunctional heterostructures.

    Topological Engineering of Terahertz Light Using Electrically Tunable Exceptional Point Singularities
    (American Association for the Advancement of Science, 2022) Ergöktaş, M. Said; Soleymani, Sina; Kakenov, Nurbek; Wang, Kaiyuan; Smith, Thomas B.; Bakan, Gökhan; Balcı, Sinan; Principi, Alessandro; Novoselov, Kostya S.; Özdemir, Şahin K.; Kocabaş, Çoşkun
    The topological structure associated with the branch point singularity around an exceptional point (EP) can provide tools for controlling the propagation of light. Through use of graphene-based devices, we demonstrate the emergence of EPs in an electrically controlled interaction between light and a collection of organic molecules in the terahertz regime at room temperature. We show that the intensity and phase of terahertz pulses can be controlled by a gate voltage, which drives the device across the EP. Our electrically tunable system allows reconstruction of the Riemann surface associated with the complex energy landscape and provides topological control of light by tuning the loss imbalance and frequency detuning of interacting modes. Our approach provides a platform for developing topological optoelectronics and studying the manifestations of EP physics in light-matter interactions.

    Hg(ii)-Mediated Intramolecular Cyclization of Alkynyl Hydrazones: Towards a New Reaction-Based Sensing Approach for Hg(ii) Ions
    (Wiley, 2022) Tütüncü, Büşra Buse; Cebeci, Miray; Emrullahoğlu, Mustafa
    Drawing upon an intramolecular cyclization/annulation reaction sequence mediated by Hg2+ ions, a BODIPY-based fluorescent probe decorated with an alkynyl hydrazone motif responds rapidly and selectively to Hg2+ ions, with a detection limit of 29 nM and a fluorescence turn-on ratio of 15-fold. With the addition of Hg2+ ions, the BODIPY-based alkynyl hydrazone transforms into a pyrazole ring to mediate a turn-on emission response clearly observable to the naked eye under visible light excitation.

    Interface-Dependent Phononic and Optical Properties of Geo/Moso Heterostructures
    (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2022) Yağmurcukardeş, Mehmet; Sözen, Yiğit; Başkurt, Mehmet; Peeters, François M.; Şahin, Hasan
    The interface-dependent electronic, vibrational, piezoelectric, and optical properties of van der Waals heterobilayers, formed by buckled GeO (b-GeO) and Janus MoSO structures, are investigated by means of first-principles calculations. The electronic band dispersions show that O/Ge and S/O interface formations result in a type-II band alignment with direct and indirect band gaps, respectively. In contrast, O/O and S/Ge interfaces give rise to the formation of a type-I band alignment with an indirect band gap. By considering the Bethe-Salpeter equation (BSE) on top of G0W0 approximation, it is shown that different interfaces can be distinguished from each other by means of the optical absorption spectra as a consequence of the band alignments. Additionally, the low-and high-frequency regimes of the Raman spectra are also different for each interface type. The alignment of the individual dipoles, which is interface-dependent, either weakens or strengthens the net dipole of the heterobilayers and results in tunable piezoelectric coefficients. The results indicate that the possible heterobilayers of b-GeO/MoSO asymmetric structures possess various electronic, optical, and piezoelectric properties arising from the different interface formations and can be distinguished by means of various spectroscopic techniques.
