摘要: The structural and electronic properties of (100), (110), and (111) diamond/cubic boron nitride (c-BN) heterostructures are systematically investigated by first principles calculation. The interface between diamond and c-BN shows the weak van der Waals interactions, which is confirmed by the interface distance and interface binding energy. The diamond/c-BN structures are the direct bandgap semiconductors with moderate bandgap values ranging from 0.647 eV to 2.948 eV. This work helps to promote the application of diamond in electronic and optoelectronic devices.
