الوصف: | Symmetry breaking generally induce exotic physical properties, particularly for low-dimensional materials. Herein we demonstrate that symmetry breaking induces a giant Stark effect in 2D Janus materials using group IV-V monolayers with a four-atom-layer structure as a model system, which are constructed by Ge and As element substitution of symmetrical SnSb monolayer. A linear giant Stark effect is found in Janus semiconductor monolayers, as verified by the band gap variation up to 134 meV of Sn2SbAs monolayer, which is 30 times larger than that of SnSb monolayer (4 meV) when the applied electric field is increased from -0.30 to 0.30 V/{\AA}. By considering the induced electronic field, we propose a generalized and effective formula that efficiently determines the band gap variation owing to Stark effect. The calculated results from proposed formula are well agreement with those from DFT-HSE06 functional. The giant Stark effect is originated from the large spatial separation of centers of the conduction band minimum and valence band maximum states of Janus structure due to its intrinsic potential gradient. The wide-range tuning of band gap under electronic field shows potential applications of 2D Janus materials in optoelectronic devices. Comment: 10 pages, 5 figures |
