▎ 摘 要
A new two-dimensional carbon-based material consisting of pentagonal and hexagonal elements is identified by numerical experiments, which is called phgraphene and possesses not only a tunable semimetallic feature but also a direction-dependent even sign-changed Poisson's ratio. The structural stability of such a new material is first checked systematically. It is found that phgraphene has a similar energy as the gamma-graphyne, a thermally stable structure from the room temperature to 1500 K, and elastic constants satisfying the Born-Huang criterion. Both the band structure and density of states are further verified with different techniques, which demonstrate a Dirac semimetallic characteristic of phgraphene. A more interesting finding is that the band structure can be easily tuned by an external loading, resulting in the transition from semimetal to semiconductor or from type I to type III. As a new material that may be applied in the future, the mechanical property of phgraphene is further evaluated. It shows that phgraphene is a typically anisotropic material, which has not only direction-dependent Young's moduli but also direction-dependent even sign-changed Poisson's ratios. The microscopic mechanisms of both the electrical and mechanical properties are revealed. Such a versatile material with tunable band structure and auxetic effect should have promising applications in the advanced nano-electronic field in the future.
