摘要

Long-range higher-order multipolar electron–phonon (e-ph) interactions beyond the dipole-like Fröhlich interactions have long been neglected in the description of various physical properties. Here we demonstrate the contribution from quadrupole effect to the electric and thermal transport properties of monolayer MSi2N4 (M = Mo/W) systems. The quadrupole effect reduces the electron and hole mobilities at 300 K by 25.4%, 12.8% for MoSi2N4, and by 19.2%, 52.3% for WSi2N4, respectively. For n- and p-type monolayers with modest dopings by fixing the carrier concentration to 1.0 × 1014 cm−2, the dipole-like e-ph interaction decreases the three-phonon-limited lattice thermal conductivities κl by 17.9% and 43.5% for monolayer MoSi2N4 and WSi2N4, respectively. However, further considerations of quadrupole e-ph interaction shrink such reductions of three-phonon-limited κl to only 3.6% and 2.4%, respectively due to the cancellation effects. Our results highlight the potential of MSi2N4 monolayers as promising candidates for advanced micro-electronic applications.
