Abstract
The electronic properties of two-dimensional (2D) polar semiconductor heterostructures are closely related to the degree of interlayer charge transfer. Taking 2D quintuple-layer (QL)-Al2S3 and QL-Al2O3 semiconductor as examples, we study the electronic properties and interlayer charge transfer of QL-Al2S3/Al2O3 interfaces by first-principles calculations. The driving force of the directional interlayer charge transfer is the polarization electric field. The kinetic process of interface charge transfer is related to the charge (strain) distribution of QL-Al2S3 and QL-Al2O3. By changing the strain distribution of QL-Al2S3/Al2O3 interfaces with same polarization arrangement, the electronic properties and interfacial charge transfer of heterojunctions can be adjusted. Our work is an important indicator for understanding the dynamic process of interlayer charge transfer between 2D polar semiconductors. In addition, we propose one method for regulating the electronic properties of heterojunctions by coupling polarization and lattice strain.
