The electronic structure of FeSe thin films grown on SrTiO3 substrate is studied by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES). We reveal the existence of Dirac cone band dispersions in FeSe thin films thicker than 1 Unit Cell below…
Silicene is a monolayer of silicon atoms forming a two-dimensional honeycomb lattice. We investigate the topological properties of a silicene superstructure generated by an external periodic potential. The superstructure is a quantum…
Two-dimensional band dispersion of (2$\times$2) superstructure with Bi grown on Ag(111), which has been urged as an ultraflat hexagonal bismuthene, is investigated using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES). The (2$\times$2)-Bi…
We performed a scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy (STM/STS) study on the electronic structures of of root(3)Xroot(3)-silicene on Ag(111). We find that the coupling strength of root(3)Xroot(3)-silicene with Ag(111) substrate is…
Angle-resolved photoemission and X-ray diffraction experiments show that multilayer epitaxial graphene grown on the SiC(000-1) surface is a new form of carbon that is composed of effectively isolated graphene sheets. The unique rotational…
The k-projection method provides an approach to separate the contributions from different constituents in heterostructure systems and can act as an aid to connect the results of experiments and calculations. We show that the technique can…
Knowing the band structure of materials is one of the prerequisites to understand their properties. Therefore, especially in the last decades, angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) has become a highly demanded experimental tool…
Silicene, as the silicon analog of graphene, has been successfully fabricated by epitaxial growing on various substrates. Similar to free-standing graphene, free-standing silicene possesses a honeycomb structure and Dirac-cone-shaped energy…
We demonstrate unexpected occurrence of linear bands resembling Dirac cone at the zone-center of Au$_2$Sn surface alloy with $\left( \begin{smallmatrix} 2&1\\ 1&3 \end{smallmatrix} \right)$ surface structure formed by deposition of about…
We have performed angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) on the (111) surface of the topological crystalline insulator SnTe. Distinct from a pair of Dirac-cone surface states across the X_bar point of the surface Brillouin zone…
Zirconium pentatelluride was recently reported to be a 3D Dirac semimetal, with a single conical band, located at the center of the Brillouin zone. The cone's lack of protection by the lattice symmetry immediately sparked vast discussions…
Using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) and density functional theory (DFT) we study the electronic structure of layered BaZnBi$_2$. Our experimental results show no evidence of Dirac states in BaZnBi$_2$ originated either…
We investigate electronic band-structure images in reciprocal space of few layer graphene epitaxially grown on SiC(000-1). In addition to the observation of commensurate rotation angles of the graphene layers, the k-space images recorded…
A quantum graph model for a single sheet of graphene is extended to bilayer and trilayer Bernal-stacked graphene; the spectra are characterized and the dispersion relations explicitly obtained; Dirac cones are then proven to be present only…
Epitaxial silicene, which is one single layer of silicon atoms packed in a honeycomb structure, demonstrates a strong interaction with the substrate that dramatically affects its electronic structure. The role of electronic coupling in the…
Low energy electron diffraction (LEED), scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), and photoelectron spectroscopy have been used to study an ordered structure formed by Ge atoms deposited onto the Au(111) surface. Based on a careful analysis of…
The opening of a gap in single-layer graphene is often ascribed to the breaking of the equivalence between the two carbon sublattices. We show by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy that Ir- and Na-modified graphene grown on the…
The pi bands of epitaxially grown graphene are studied by using high resolution angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy. Clear deviations from the conical dispersion expected for massless Dirac fermions and an anomalous increase of the…
We propose a guideline for exploring substrates that stabilize the monolayer honeycomb structure of silicene and germanene while simultaneously preserve the Dirac states: in addition to have a strong binding energy to the monolayer, a…
After the discovery of Dirac fermions in graphene, it has become a natural question to ask whether it is possible to realize Dirac fermions in other two-dimensional (2D) materials as well. In this work, we report the discovery of multiple…
