Abstract:The electronic and the optical properties of metallic nitride (MN) monolayers are studied using a DFT formalism. In most of these monolayers, the electron density of the metallic atoms is much higher than that of the nitride atoms, and ionic, covalent, and metallic bonds are found in M-N bonds, resulting in fascinating electronic and optical properties. The optical band gap is varied from almost 0.0 to 3.0 eV for the MN monolayers depending on the bond type between the metallic and the nitride atoms, as well a… Show more
