چکیده

جذب تک لایه h-BN بر روی نانولایه WS2 در چارچوب نظریه تابع چگالی و با استفاده از کد محاسباتی کوانتوم اسپرسو بررسی شده است. محاسبات با تابع های تبادلی-همبستگی شامل LDA،GGA و با استفاده از دو رهیافت نیمه‌تجربی و ابتدا به ساکن با به کارگیری تابع‌های DFT-D2، vdW-DF2و vdW-DF2B86R صورت گرفته تا کارایی تابع‌های مختلف برای پیش‌بینی انرژی جذب، مکانیسم جذب و فاصله جذب بین دو لایه h-BN و WS2 بررسی شوند. به منظور اعمال برهم‌کنش واندروالس تصصیح نیروی پراکندگی دور برد در دو رهیافت نیمه‌تجربی و ابتدا به ساکن بررسی شده است و به نظر می‌رسد که تقریب vdW-DF2B86R مناسب‌ترین تابع باشد. هر دو رهیافت ابتدا به ساکن و نیمه‌تجربی جذب فیزیکی بدون انتقال بار خالص بین دو صفحه h-BN و WS2 را پیش‌بینی می‌کنند. همچنین خواص الکترونی، ساختاری و چگالی حالت‌ها برای ترکیب نامتجانس WS2/h-BN بررسی شده است. نتایج نشان می‌دهد که سامانۀ مرکب ساختاری با گاف مستقیم در نقطه K دارد که از نقطه نظر تجربی نیز مورد تایید می‌باشد

چکیده [English]

The adsorption of h-BN monolayer on WS2 nano sheet was studied in the framework of density functional theory using Quantum ESPRESSO package. First-principle calculations with different exchange-correlation functionals including LDA, GGA, semi-empirical and ab-initio van der Waals in the forms of DFT-D2, vdW-DF2B86R and vdW-DF2 have been performed to evaluate the performance of different functionals in describing bonding mechanism, adsorption energy and interlayer distance of WS2 monolayer on h-BN layer. In order to include the van der Waals (vdW) interactions in our calculations, we used the DFT-D2 and vdW methods and found the vdW-DF2B86R seems to be the most qualified approach. Both vdW and semi-empirical methods predict a physical adsorption with no net charge transfer between the WS2 layer and the corresponding substrates. In addition, we investigated the electronic and structural properties and density of states of WS2 and h-BN heterolayers by vdW-DF2B86R functional. Based on our calculations, WS2/h-BN heterostructure show a direct band gap at the K-point, which has been experimentally observed.
