RESUMO
Based on density functional theory, we have systematically investigated the geometric, magnetic, and electronic properties of fluorographene with three types of vacancy defects. With uneven sublattice, the partial defect structures are significantly spin-polarized and present midgap electronic states. The magnetic moment is mainly contributed by the adjacent C atoms of vacancy defects. Furthermore, the strain dependence of the bandgap is analyzed and shows a linear trend with applied strain. This defect-induced tunable narrow bandgap material has great potential in electronic devices and spintronics applications.
RESUMO
In the present work, we report the structural properties of the two dimensional (2D) few-layered Ti3C2(OH)2/Ti3C2F2 hybrid MXene synthesized via the HF acid etching method. Various characterizations were exploited to demonstrate the 2D layered structural properties of the hybrid MXene membranes. The density functional theory (DFT) simulation indicated the hybrid MXene possessed the small enough band gap, which could benefit the nonlinear optical applications in the infrared region. By the conventional open-aperture Z-scan technique, typical nonlinear saturable features were measured. Consequently, the hybrid MXene membranes exhibited the excellent saturable absorption properties at 1 and 1.3â µm. As a saturable absorber, passively Q-switched Nd:YVO4 lasers with the prepared hybrid MXene membranes were realized at 1 and 1.3â µm, respectively, producing the stable Q-switching pulse train with a shortest duration of 130â ns.
