Valley-Related Multipiezo Effect in Altermagnet Monolayer V₂STeO.

ABSTRACT: The multipiezo effect realizes the coupling of strain with magnetism and electricity, which provides a new way of designing multifunctional devices. In this study, monolayer V₂STeO is demonstrated to be an altermagnet semiconductor with a direct band gap of 0.41 eV. The spin splittings of monolayer V₂STeO are as high as 1114 and 1257 meV at the valence and conduction bands, respectively. Moreover, a pair of energy degeneracy valleys appears at X and Y points in the first Brillouin zone. The valley polarization and reversion can be achieved by applying uniaxial strains along different directions, indicating a piezovalley effect. In addition, a net magnetization coupled with uniaxial strain and hole doping can be induced in monolayer V₂STeO, presenting the pi
