Article Synopsis
  • A sumanene monolayer with a unique Kagome-like lattice features two flat bands and two Dirac cones, which can be designed using carbon clusters.
  • First-principles simulations show that surface charge doping can effectively adjust the Fermi level between these bands, allowing for the transformation of the semiconducting monolayer into a semimetal using Li/Na/K atoms.
  • This doped sumanene exhibits high theoretical storage capacity, rapid charge capability, and exceptional structural stability, making it an attractive anode material for alkali-metal batteries.

An in-depth study of the substrate effect is crucial for optimizing and designing the performance of two-dimensional (2D) materials in practical applications. Fullerene monolayers (FMs), a new pure carbon system successfully prepared recently, have prompted renewed interest in the question of whether FMs might be exploited to create carbon-based functional materials with improved performance. Here, the electronic structure of a MXene-supported FM was investigated by first-principles calculations.
