Developing two-dimensional layered materials is important for nanoscale device applications. FeOX (X = F, Cl, Br, I) is a series of promising two-dimensional semiconductors with antiferromagnetism, anisotropic optical properties, and large carrier mobility, making them compelling materials for next-generation nanoscale photovoltaic devices.
Developing two-dimensional layered materials is highly desirable for nanoscale device applications. Antiferromagnetic materials have attracted considerable attention through their absence of production of parasitic stray fields, ultrafast dynamics, and the generation of large magnetotransport effects. Here, based on first-principles calculations, we demonstrate a series of promising two-dimensional semiconductors in the family of iron oxyhalides FeOX (X = F, Cl, Br, I) with antiferromagnetism, anisotropic optical properties and large carrier mobility. Combined with appropriate gaps, this renders FeOX monolayers with high ab-sorption coefficient up to 3.90 x 105cm 1 in the visible region. In addition, due to their large band dis-persion, FeOX monolayers are also found to harbor considerably high carrier mobilities, especially for FeOBr (6.84 x 103cm2V 1s 1), suggesting their enormous potential for optoelectronic fields. All of these discoveries make these FeOX monolayers compelling materials for next-generation nanoscale photovoltaic device.(c) 2023 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
