Exploration for Two-Dimensional Electrides via Database Screening and Ab Initio Calculation

Inspired by the recent demonstration that Ca_{2}N is a two-dimensional electride in which electrons near the Fermi level float between ionic layers, we have conducted a systematic search for 2D electrides by an approach combining crystal structure databases and ab initio electronic structure calcula...
