Abstract
The quantum transport properties of defective two-dimensional (2D) GeP semiconductor nanodevice consisting of typical point defects, such as antisite defect, substitutional defect, and Schottky defect, have been studied by using density functional theory combined with non-equilibrium Green’s function calculation. The antisite defect has indistinctive influences on electron transport. However, both substitutional and Schottky defect have introduced promising defect state at the Fermi level, indicating the possibility of improvement on the carrier transport. Our quantitative quantum transport calculations of I–V
b behavior have revealed that the electrical characters are enhanced. Moreover, the P atom vacancy could induce significant negative differential resistance phenomenon, and the physical mechanism is unveiled by detailed analysis. The transfer characteristic properties could be prominently improved by substitutional defect and vacancy defect. Most importantly, we have proposed a computational design of GeP-based electronic device with improved electrical performance by introducing vacancy defect. Our findings could be helpful to the practical application of novel 2D GeP semiconductor nanodevice in future.
