    Functional Carbon and Silicon Monolayers in Biphenylene Network
    (Amer Chemical Soc, 2022) Gorkan, Taylan; Callioglu, Safak; Demirci, Salih; Aktuerk, Ethem; Ciraci, Salim
    We investigated the effects of vacancy, void, substitutional impurity, isolated adsorption of selected adatoms, and their patterned coverage on the physical and chemical properties of metallic carbon and silicon monolayers in a biphenylene network. These monolayers can acquire diverse electronic and magnetic properties to become more functional depending on the repeating symmetry, size of the point defects, and on the type of adsorbed adatoms. While a carbon monovacancy attains a local magnetic moment, its void can display closed edge states with interesting physical effects. Adsorbed light-transition or rare-earth metal atoms attribute magnetism to these monolayers. The opening of a gap in the metallic density of states, which depends on the pattern and density of adsorbed hydrogen, oxygen, and carbon adatoms, can be used as the band gap engineering of these two-dimensional materials. The energy barriers against the passage of oxygen atoms through the centers of hexagon and octagon rings are investigated, and the coating of the active surfaces with carbon monolayers is exploited as a means of protection against oxidation. We showed that the repulsive forces exerting even at distant separations between two parallel, hydrogenated carbon monolayers in a biphenylene network can lead to the superlow friction features in their sliding motion. All these results obtained from the calculations using the density functional theory herald critical applications.

    Hydrogenated Carbon Monolayer in Biphenylene Network Offers a Potential Paradigm for Nanoelectronic Devices
    (Amer Chemical Soc, 2022) Demirci, Salih; Gorkan, Taylan; Callioglu, Safak; Ozcelik, V. Ongun; Barth, Johannes, V; Aktuerk, Ethem; Ciraci, Salim
    A metallic carbon monolayer in the biphenylene network (specified as C ohs) becomes an insulator upon hydrogenation (specified as CH ohs). Patterned dehydrogenation of this CH ohs can offer a variety of intriguing functionalities. Composite structures constituted by alternating stripes of C and CH ohs with different repeat periodicity and chirality display topological properties and can form heterostructures with a tunable band-lineup or Schottky barrier height. Alternating arrangements of these stripes of finite size enable one to also construct double barrier resonant tunneling structures and 2D, lateral nanocapacitors with high gravimetric capacitance for an efficient energy storage device. By controlled removal of H atom from a specific site or dehydrogenation of an extended zone, one can achieve antidoping or construct OD quantum structures like antidots, antirings/loops, and supercrystals, the energy level spacing of which can be controlled with their geometry and size for optoelectronic applications. Conversely, all these device functions can be acquired also by controlled hydrogenation of a bare C ohs monolayer. Since all these processes are applied to a monolayer, the commensurability of electronically different materials is assured. These features pertain not only to CH ohs but also to fully hydrogenated Si ohs.
