While an increasing number of two-dimensional (2D) materials, including graphene and silicene, have already been realized, others have only been predicted. An interesting example is the two-dimensional form of silicon carbide (2D-SiC).…
The characteristic results by different diagnostics on a typical hydrogenated diamond like carbon (HDLC) film synthesized directly in a capacitatively coupled RF (13.56 MHz) discharge are described. The results show some typical charecteric…
We report macroscopic sheets of highly conductive bilayer graphene with exceptionally high hole concentrations of ~ $10^{15}$ $cm^{-2}$ and unprecedented sheet resistances of 20-25 {\Omega} per square over macroscopic scales, and obtained…
Silicene monolayers grown on Ag(111) surfaces demonstrate a band gap that is tunable by oxygen adatoms from semimetallic to semiconducting type. By using low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy, it is found that the adsorption…
The structural and electronic properties of oxidized graphene are investigated on the basis of the genetic algorithm and density functional theory calculations. We find two new low energy semiconducting phases of the fully oxidized graphene…
The electronic structure, specific heat, and thermal conductivity of silicon embedded in a monolayer graphene nanosheet are studied using Density Functional Theory. Two different shapes of the substitutional Si doping in the graphene are…
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…
Silicon represents a common intrinsic impurity in graphene, commonly bonding to either three or four carbon neighbors respectively in a single or double carbon vacancy. We investigate the effect of the latter defect (Si-C$_4$) on the…
Self healing mechanisms of vacancy defects in graphene and silicene are studied using first principles calculations. We investigated host adatom adsorption, diffusion, vacancy formation and revealed atomistic mechanisms in the healing of…
We have investigated the structure of hydrogen-intercalated quasi-free-standing monolayer graphene (QFMLG) grown on 6H-SiC(0001) by employing total-reflection high-energy positron diffraction (TRHEPD). At least nine diffraction spots of the…
In this paper, we propose a practical way to stabilize half-hydrogenated graphene (graphone). We show that the dipole moments induced by an hexagonal-boron nitride (h-BN) substrate on graphene stabilize the hydrogen atoms on one sublattice…
Graphene and few-layer graphene at high bias expose a wealth of phenomena due to the high temperatures reached. With in-situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM) we observe directly how the current modifies the structure, and vice versa.…
Low-buckled silicene, germanene, and stanene are group$-IV$ graphene allotropes. They form a honeycomb lattice out of two interpenetrating ($A$ and $B$) triangular sublattices that are vertically separated by a small distance $\Delta_z$.…
The use of high quality hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) as a dielectric material has made possible the realization of graphene devices with very high mobility. In addition hBN can be made as thin as few atomic layers and, as recently…
Single-orientation stitching of graphene has emerged as the predominant method for growth of large-area, high-quality graphene films. Particularly noteworthy is graphene grown on single-crystalline Cu(111)/sapphire substrates, which…
Graphene on a substrate has been shown to exhibit a transition, depending on the substrate material, from a zero-gap semiconductor state to a semimetallic state. The ground-state energy of the electron (hole) gas has been calculated within…
Zigzag graphene nanoribbons patterned on graphane are studied using spin-polarized ab initio calculations. We found that the electronic and magnetic properties of the graphene/graphane superlattice strongly depends on the degree of…
Graphene nanoribbons are semiconductor nanostructures with great potentials in nanoelectronics. Their realization particularly with small lateral dimensions below a few nanometers, however, remains challenging. Here we theoretically analyze…
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…
We study the effect of sublattice symmetry breaking on the electronic, magnetic and transport properties of two dimensional graphene as well as zigzag terminated one and zero dimensional graphene nanostructures. The systems are described…
