研究目的
Investigating the possibility of freestanding Xene monolayers behaving as excitonic insulators by reducing an external electric field below a critical value.
研究成果
The study predicts a phase transition in freestanding Xene monolayers to an excitonic insulator phase at specific electric fields, highlighting the tunability of this phase and its sensitivity to the dielectric environment. The coexistence of semiconducting and excitonic insulator phases in a single monolayer could have implications for nanodevice design.
研究不足
The study is theoretical and lacks experimental validation. The sensitivity of the excitonic insulator phase to the dielectric environment may limit practical applications.
