    Abstract:
    Two-dimensional (2D) Janus materials are a novel kind of 2D materials, which have potential applications in nanoelectronics, optoelectronics and spintronics. However, a 2D Janus material combined with intrinsic ferromagnetism, electric dipole moment, valley polarization and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI) remains rarely reported. Here, the electronic structure and magnetic properties of 2D intrinsic ferromagnetic Janus 2H-VSeX (X = S, Te) monolayers are investigated systematically using the density-functional theory. Janus 2H-VSeX (X = S, Te) monolayers are intrinsic ferromagnetic semiconductors with in-plane magnetic anisotropy (IMA). The valley splitting of Janus 2H-VSeX (X = S, Te) monolayers appears by considering the spin-orbit coupling (SOC) effect and out of plane magnetization. Additionally, spontaneous vertical electric dipole moment and a large DMI are also found in Janus 2H-VSeX (X = S, Te) monolayers due to the broken inversion symmetry. Moreover, the valley splitting and DMI can be significantly increased by applying in-plane biaxial strain. These results provide an interesting 2D intrinsic ferromagnetic Janus material, which has potential applications in spintronic and valleytronic devices.
