Abstract:
The electronic structures and Rashba effect of two-dimensional polar tetragonal perovskites TlSnX3 (X = Cl, Br, I) are investigated by first-principles density functional theory, and intrinsic Rashba effects are found around the Γ point. In particular, TlSnI3 has the largest Rashba constant of 1.072 eV Å-1. Additionally, TlSnBr3 and TlSnI3 respond strongly to the applied electric field, and the electric field responsivity of TlSnI3 can reach 0.790 e Å2. Therefore, due to the large Rashba constants and strong electric field responses, these 2D polar perovskites are promising semiconductor materials with short channel lengths. The nano-scale short spin coherence length can keep the spin coherence of spin FETs, which is superior to the traditional 3D micron spin FETs, and will show a broad application prospect in the Rashba semiconductor field.

Crystal field theory (CFT) is applicable to molecules in geometries other than octahedral. In octahedral complexes, the lobes of the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals point directly at the ligands. For tetrahedral complexes, the d orbitals remain in place, but with only four ligands located between the axes. None of the orbitals points directly at the tetrahedral ligands. However, the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals (along the Cartesian axes) overlap with the ligands less than the dxy,...

The central atom need not be NMR-active because its electrons are affected by the electron polarization of the spin-active atoms. However, spin information is transmitted less effectively than in one-bond coupling, and 2J values are usually weaker than 1J values. The energy of...
