Abstract:
Two-dimensional (2D) materials with negative Poisson's ratios (NPRs) hold tremendous potential in diverse electronic devices. However, most 2D auxetic materials exhibit small out-of-plane NPRs and materials with bi-directional NPRs are rare. In this work, the SiS 2 monolayer and its derivatives MX 2 (M = Si, Ge, Sn and X = S, Se, Te) are systematically studied via first-principles simulation. We demonstrate that a SiS 2 monolayer possesses a remarkable out-of-plane NPR with a value of −1.09 and an in-plane NPR (−0.13). Furthermore, a higher out-of-plane NPR (−1.79) can be achieved in a SnS 2 monolayer by element substitution. Remarkably, SiS 2 and its derivative MX 2 monolayers exhibit excellent light harvesting over the ultraviolet and visible range, and the corresponding electronic properties show robustness against strains. Our results confirm that MX 2 monolayers provide an ideal platform to explore auxeticity in two-dimensional limits.
