Abstract

Search for two-dimensional magnetic semiconductors and half-metals are particularly significant for spintronic applications. By substituting N-Si-N atom group with S atoms on one side of SVSiN

_{2}

monolayer, two Janus monolayers:

h

-SVSiN

_{2}

and

t

-SVSiN

_{2}

were proposed. Through density functional theory, their electronic and magnetic properties have been studied systematically. Our results show that Janus

h

-SVSiN

_{2}

monolayer is an indirect semiconductor with intrinsic ferromagnetic order, while Janus

t

-SVSiN

_{2}

monolayer exhibits half-metallic feature. They both possess easy-plane magnetic anisotropy, with Curie temperature of 290 and 136 K for

h

-SVSiN

_{2}

and

t

-SVSiN

_{2}

monolayers, respectively. The electronic structures can be regulated by biaxial strain, such as semiconductor to half-metal transition. A spintronic device based on

t

-SVSiN

_{2}

monolayer has been designed, showing high magnetoresistance ratio and excellent spin filtering effect. These findings imply that Janus SVSiN

_{2}

monolayers are promising for 2D magnetism and spintronics.
