Decreasing of layer thickness causes the decrease of polarization until it disappears due to the existence of depolarization field.Therefore,the search for strong piezoelectric materials is highly desirable for multifunc-tional ultra-thin piezoelectric devices.Herein,we propose a common strat-egy for achieving strong piezoelectric materials through the electronic asymmetry induced by the intrinsically asymmetric atomic character of different chalcogen atoms.Accordingly,in the tetrahedral lattice struc-tures,for example,M4X3Y3(M=Pd/Ni,X/Y=S,Se or Te,X ≠ Y)monolayers are proved to display excellent out-of-plane piezoelectricity.Ni4Se3Te3 possesses the largest piezoelectric coefficient d33 of 61.57 pm/V,which is much larger than that of most 2D materials.Enhancing the electronic asymmetry further increases the out-of-plane piezoelectricity of Janus M4X3Y3 materials.Correspondingly,the out-of-plane piezoelectricity is positively correlated with the ratio of electronegativity difference(Red)and the electric dipole moment(P).This work provides alternative materials for energy harvesting nano-devices or self-energized wearable devices,and supplies a valuable guideline for predicting 2D materials with strong out-of-plane piezoelectricity.
