Recent advances of novel ultrathin two-dimensional silicon carbides from a theoretical perspective
Abstract
Compared to graphene with semimetallic features, two-dimensional (2D) silicon carbide (Si–C) materials constitute another highly promising family for opto-electronic applications owing to their intrinsic electronic gaps.
