Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, growth of two-dimensional aluminum carbide was demonstrated. As a result of the first-principles calculation, two-dimensional aluminum carbide (AlCene) was a semiconductor with a indirect gap of about 2.18 eV. On the other hand, highly crystalline and extremely thin aluminum carbide was successfully grown on the SiC (000-1) substrate by the pulsed laser deposition technique. At the interface, the carbon atoms of the topmost SiC surface and the aluminum atoms of the aluminum carbide made bonds, which was revealed by high-resolution transmission electron microscope observations.
