Strain-Tuned Nodal Ring in Two-Dimensional Zn3C6S6 Monolayers

Abstract EN

The nodal ring material has recently attracted wide attention due to its singular properties and potential applications in spintronics.

Here, two-dimensional Zn3C6S6 is calculated and discussed by using first-principle calculations.

We found that two-dimensional Zn3C6S6 can generate a nodal ring at 10% compressive strain, and the existence of the ring is proved by a partial charge density map.

And as the compressive strain increases, the nodal ring does not disappear.

At the same time, the stability of the electron-orbit coupling to the nodal ring is applied.

Our findings indicate that the two-dimensional Zn3C6S6 is promising in new electronic and spintronic applications.
