Abstract
CaOFeS is a semiconducting oxysulfide with polar layered triangular structure. Here a comprehensive theoretical study has been performed to reveal its physical properties, including magnetism, electronic structure, phase transition, magnetodielectric effect, as well as optical absorption. Our calculations confirm the Ising-like G-type antiferromagnetic ground state driven by the next-nearest neighbor exchanges, which breaks the trigonal symmetry and is responsible for the magnetodielectric effect driven by exchange striction. In addition, a large coefficient of visible light absorption is predicted, which leads to promising photovoltaic effect with the maximum light-to-electricity energy conversion efficiency up to 24.2%.
