Abstract

The structural and electronic properties of the 1T-SnS2/MoTe2 heterostructure were investigated based on density functional theory and Berry curvature calculations. Considering the strong spin–orbit coupling and space inversion asymmetry, large Rashba spin splitting of electronic bands appeared in this hybrid system. The Rashba coupling parameter αR in 1T-SnS2/MoTe2 reached 0.383 eV Å. Importantly, αR can be effectively tuned by biaxial strain. Moreover, our first-principles calculations show that the 1T-SnS2/MoTe2 heterostructure possesses a high carrier mobility of 5038.46 cm2 V−1 s−1. The Berry curvature and spin splitting were opposite at the K and K′ valleys. Hence, the valleys and spins were simultaneously locked and polarized, and the valley and spin Hall effects simultaneously occurred.

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.
