Electronic Structure and XPS Spectra of Layered Ni-Doped h-BN
摘要
Abstract
The electronic structure of two-dimensional (2D) hexagonal boron nitride doping with nickel atoms h-[B0.975Ni0.025]N is studied using the coherent potential approximation (CPA) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). A metal electronic spectrum with Ni 3d-states inside the energy gap of pure h-BN is observed for disordered nitride h-[B0.975Ni0.025]N, which is in good accordance with the experimental XPS spectrum for Ni-ion implanted h-BN thin films.
