Effective model for the electronic and optical properties of stanene
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The existence of several two-dimensional (2D) materials with heavy atoms has recently been demonstrated. The electronic and optical properties of these materials can be accurately computed with numerically intensive density-functional theory methods. However, it is desirable to have simple effective models that can accurately describe these properties at low energies. Here we present an effective model for stanene that is reliable for electronic and optical properties for photon energies up to 1.1 eV. For this material, we find that a quadratic model with respect to the lattice momentum is the best suited for calculations based on the band structure, even with respect to band warping. We also find that splitting the two spin-$\stackrel{\ifmmode \hat{}\else \^{}\fi{}}{\mathbf{z}}$ subsectors is a good approximation, which indicates that the lattice buckling can be neglected in calculations based on the band structure. We illustrate the applicability of the model by computing the linear optical injection rates of carrier and spin densities in stanene. Our calculations indicate that an incident circularly polarized optical field only excites electrons with spin that matches its helicity.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
