Query: Tuning the electronic properties of hydrogen passivated C3N nanoribbons
  through van der Waals stacking   The two-dimensional (2D) C3N has emerged as a material with promising
applications in high performance device owing to its intrinsic bandgap and
tunable electronic properties. Although there are several reports about the
bandgap tuning of C3N via stacking or forming nanoribbon, bandgap modulation of
bilayer C3N nanoribbons (C3NNRs) with various edge structures is still far from
well understood. Here, based on extensive first-principles calculations, we
demonstrated the effective bandgap engineering of C3N by cutting it into
hydrogen passivated C3NNRs and stacking them into bilayer heterostructures. It
was found that armchair (AC) C3NNRs with three types of edge structures are all
semiconductors, while only zigzag (ZZ) C3NNRs with edges composed of both C and
N atoms (ZZ-CN/CN) are semiconductors. The bandgaps of all semiconducting
C3NNRs are larger than that of C3N nanosheet. More interestingly, AC-C3NNRs
with CN/CN edges (AC-CN/CN) possess direct bandgap while ZZ-CN/CN have indirect
bandgap. Compared with the monolayer C3NNR, the bandgaps of bilayer C3NNRs can
be greatly modulated via different stacking orders and edge structures, varying
from 0.43 eV for ZZ-CN/CN with AB'-stacking to 0.04 eV for AC-CN/CN with
AA-stacking. Particularly, transition from direct to indirect bandgap was
observed in the bilayer AC-CN/CN heterostructure with AA'-stacking, and the
indirect-to-direct transition was found in the bilayer ZZ-CN/CN with
AB-stacking. This work provides insights into the effective bandgap engineering
of C3N and offers a new opportunity for its applications in nano-electronics
and optoelectronic devices.
