Using density functional theory with the generalized gradient approximation and effective screening medium method, we investigated the geometric and piezoelectric properties of MoS2 nanoribbons under uniaxial strain in terms of their edge shapes. The strain ranged from 6% compressive to 6% tensile. Ribbons with zigzag and armchair edges are stiffer than those with chiral edges under compressive strain. Substantial edge reconstruction occurs at the chiral edges where S atomic sites are dominant under 6% compressive strain. Relative piezoelectric polarity between edges decreases and increases under compressive and tensile strains, respectively, when a ribbon possesses the zigzag edges, indicating possible application to piezoelectric devices. Polarity across a ribbon with armchair and chiral edges is insensitive to uniaxial strain except when there is edge reconstruction under a large compressive strain. The electronic structure of a ribbon slightly depends on uniaxial strain.

单轴应变下 MoS2 纳米带的几何结构和压电极化
使用密度泛函理论和广义梯度近似和有效筛选介质方法,我们研究了 MoS 2的几何和压电特性纳米带在单轴应变下的边缘形状。应变范围从 6% 压缩到 6% 拉伸。在压缩应变下,具有锯齿形和扶手椅边缘的色带比具有手性边缘的色带更硬。在 6% 压缩应变下 S 原子位点占主导地位的手性边缘处发生了大量的边缘重建。当条带具有锯齿形边缘时,边缘之间的相对压电极性分别在压缩应变和拉伸应变下减少和增加,表明可能应用于压电器件。具有扶手椅和手性边缘的带上的极性对单轴应变不敏感,除非在大压缩应变下进行边缘重建。带的电子结构略微取决于单轴应变。
