Light-Emitting Two-Dimensional Ultrathin Silicon Carbide
Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) atomic crystals, especially graphene, have received much attention. However, the main shortcoming of graphene is its zero band gap. Silicon carbide, composed of silicon and carbon, is a typical wurtzite compound semiconductor, with more than 250 alloy types. Herein, we give some evidence of the solution exfoliation of 2D SiC nanoflakes with thickness down to 0.5–1.5 nm. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffraction characterizations reveal that graphitic (0001)/(0001̅) SiC most possibly has been formed by sonication of wurtzite SiC. Graphene, which is also produced in this process, naturally forms the ultrathin substrate facilitating the TEM characterization of 2D SiC. The mechanism of this exfoliation process should be related to the surface reconstruction of wurtzite SiC into graphitic SiC. Photoluminescence spectra show a strong light-emitting ability and a quantum-confinement-induced emission peak at 373 nm for these ultrathin SiC nanosheets.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
