摘要
The exceptionally low deformation potential is proposed as the key determinant for the high carrier mobility in alpha-phosphorene. This is related to its unique corrugated two-dimensional structure. Herein, we present a systematic first-principles density functional theory study on ten alpha-phosphorene isostructures by calculating the three key parameters of the carrier mobility. An electron mobility in the armchair direction with a value comparable to alpha-phosphorene is found in alpha-PAs, alpha-PCH, and alpha-AsCH, due to the structure-caused low deformation potential. The highest carrier mobility is predicted in alpha-graphane because of a two-orders-of-magnitude smaller deformation potential than the other isostructures. The low deformation potential can be correlated to the separation of charge carriers from neighbouring unit cells. This study highlights a feasible route to generating high mobility materials through deformation potential engineering.
