Abstract

Density functional theory based methods are used to investigate the interlayer sliding energy landscape (ISEL), binding energy and interlayer spacing between h-BNC2/graphene (I), h-BNC2/h-BN (II) and h-BNC2/h-BNC2 (III) bilayer structures for three, six and fourteen different stacking patterns, respectively. Our results show that, in the studied cases, increasing the atomic variety of the ingredient monolayers leads to an ISEL corrugation increase as well. For the studied bilayers the ISEL is obtained by means of the registry index. For sufficiently large flakes of h-BNC2 on graphene sheets with the largest incommensurability and the least monolayer anisotropy, a robust superlubricity occurs regardless of the relative interlayer orientation. On the other hand, for the h-BNC2/h-BNC2 bilayer exhibiting the least incommensurability and the most monolayer anisotropy, the occurrence of robust superlubricity depends on the relative interlayer orientation.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
