Abstract:Since the diode is one of the common electronic components in modern semiconductor electronics, realizing diodes with superior and controllable rectifying behaviors based on two-dimensional materials is important for next-generation electronics. Herein, gate-tunable in-plane (IP) and out-of-plane (OP) heterojunction diodes composed of the semiconductive WGe 2 N 4 and metallic TaSi 2 N 4 are reported based on first-principles calculations. The interfacial properties and rectifying characteristics of the IP and … Show more
