Theoretical prediction of two-dimensional BC2X (X = N, P, As) monolayers: ab initio investigations
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In this work, novel two-dimensional BC[Formula: see text]X (X = N, P, As) monolayers with X atoms out of the B-C plane, are predicted by means of the density functional theory. The structural, electronic, optical, photocatalytic and thermoelectric properties of the BC[Formula: see text]X monolayers have been investigated. Stability evaluation of the BC[Formula: see text]X single-layers is carried out by phonon dispersion, ab-initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulation, elastic stability, and cohesive energies study. The mechanical properties reveal all monolayers considered are stable and have brittle nature. The band structure calculations using the HSE06 functional reveal that the BC[Formula: see text]N, BC[Formula: see text]P and BC[Formula: see text]As are semiconducting monolayers with indirect bandgaps of 2.68 eV, 1.77 eV and 1.21 eV, respectively. The absorption spectra demonstrate large absorption coefficients of the BC[Formula: see text]X monolayers in the ultraviolet range of electromagnetic spectrum. Furthermore, we disclose the BC[Formula: see text]N and BC[Formula: see text]P monolayers are potentially good candidates for photocatalytic water splitting. The electrical conductivity of BC[Formula: see text]X is very small and slightly increases by raising the temperature. Electron doping may yield greater electric productivity of the studied monolayers than hole doping, as indicated by the larger power factor in the n-doped region compared to the p-type region. These results suggest that BC[Formula: see text]X (X = N, P, As) monolayers represent a new promising class of 2DMs for electronic, optical and energy conversion systems.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
