有机分子铁电材料相较于传统无机铁电材料具有轻质、柔性、不含重金属原子和成本低等诸多优点, 长期以来得到了广泛的关注和研究. 近年来, 原子厚度的二维无机铁电材料的研究取得了突破性进展, 因而备受关注, 然而二维有机铁电材料的设计与研究却鲜有报道. 本文基于密度泛函理论方法设计了一种以环丁烯-1,2-二羧酸(cyclobutene-1,2-dicarboxylic acid, CBDC)分子为结构单元的二维单层有机铁电分子晶体. 由于CBDC分子晶体内部氢键的链状排布, 导致其块体呈现出明显的层状结构, 计算发现内部的氢键链使得CBDC分子晶体块体具有各向异性的剥离能, 因此有望由沿着剥离能最低的(102)晶面进行机械/化学剥离而获得相应的单层有机铁电分子晶体. 理论计算预测CBDC (102)分子晶体单层的面内自发极化约0.39 × 10–6 μC/cm, 可与部分无机同类相比拟. 计算表明CBDC (102)分子晶体单层具有较高的极化反转势垒, 且对外加单轴应力的响应较为敏感. CBDC (102)单层有机铁电分子晶体的高面内自发极化以及易被界面调控的极化反转势垒使其可被应用于轻质无金属及柔性铁电器件.Compared with traditional inorganic ferroelectric materials, organic molecular ferroelectric materials possess many advantages, such as light weight, flexibility, no heavy metal atoms and low cost, and have received extensive attention for a long time. In recent years, atomic-thick two-dimensional (2D) inorganic ferroelectric materials have achieved breakthrough and attracted much attention. However, there are few reports on the design and research of two-dimensional organic ferroelectric materials. In this paper, we theoretically propose a 2D monolayer organic ferroelectric molecular crystal with the cyclobutene-1,2-dicarboxylic acid (CBDC) molecules as the building block based on density functional theory calculations. The bulk of CBDC molecular crystals clearly shows layered structure due to the chain-like arrangement of hydrogen bonds in crystal. It is found that the internal hydrogen bond chains give rise to the anisotropic cleavage energy values along different crystal planes of the CBDC molecular crystal bulk. Theoretical calculation suggests that the CBDC based 2D monolayer organic ferroelectric molecular crystal can be achieved by the mechanical/chemical peeling along the (102) crystal plane because of the lowest cleavage energy. It is predicted that the in-plane spontaneous polarization of the CBDC (102) molecular crystal monolayer is ~0.39 × 10–6 μC/cm, which is comparable to those of some inorganic counterparts. Calculations also indicate that the CBDC (102) molecular crystal monolayer shows a high polarization reversal barrier and is sensitive to the external uniaxial stress. The CBDC (102) monolayer organic ferroelectric molecular crystal reveals high in-plane spontaneous polarization with polarization reversal barrier easily modulated by the interface strain engineering, thereby rendering it great potential in lightweight, metal-free and flexible ferroelectric devices.
