Description

Two-dimensional (2D) Hexagonal Boron Nitride (h-BN) is an insulator that has a polar covalent B-N bond. Both monolayer and bilayer (h-BN) emerge as an optoelectronic material, which can be used as photodetectors and for photocatalysis. Here in, we performed calculation for Transient absorption spectroscopy (TAS) for monolayer (h-BN) using a low intensity laser pulse, modelling the dynamics with Time dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) numerical pump probe simulation as implemented in the octopus code. The pump probe measurement is numerically simulated by solving the Time dependent Kohn-Shams (TDKS) equation using the pump and probe field as external fields.
