Exploring potential two-dimensional monolayers with large photogalvanic effect (PGE) has been of great importance for developing self-powered optoelectronic devices. In this paper, we systematically investigate the generation of PGE photocurrent in chalcogen-based Janus XYZ monolayers (X/Y/Z = S, Se, Te; X ≠ Y ≠ Z) based on non-equilibrium Green's function formalism with density functional theory. The optimized Janus SSeTe, SeSTe, and TeSeS monolayers in the rectangular phase are shown stable and, respectively, possess 1.54, 1.49, and 1.74 eV indirect bandgaps. Illuminated by linearly polarized light, the PGE photocurrent without bias voltage can be collected in both armchair and zigzag directions. Unlike common Janus 2D materials with C3v symmetry, the photocurrent peak values of Janus XYZ monolayers do not come up with certain polarization angles, while the relations can be fitted by Iph = α sin(2θ) + β cos(2θ) + γ at each photon energy. Meanwhile, the maximum photoresponses of Janus SSeTe, SeSTe, and TeSeS monolayers are 2.02, 3.33, and 4.42 a20/photon, respectively. The relatively large PGE photocurrents and complicated polarization relations result from the lower symmetry of Janus XYZ monolayers. Moreover, the specific polarization angles for maximum photoresponses at each photon energy and the ratio between two transport directions are demonstrated, reflecting the anisotropy. Our results theoretically predict a potential Janus monolayer family for self-powered optoelectronic applications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
