The remarkable properties of graphene stem from its two-dimensional (2D) structure, with a linear dispersion of the electronic states at the corners of the Brillouin zone (BZ) forming a Dirac cone. Since then, other 2D materials have been…

Using atomic resolved scanning tunneling microscopy, we present here the experimental evidence of a silicene sheet (graphene like structure) epitaxially grown on a close-packed silver surface (Ag(111)). This has been achieved via direct…

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…

The "multilayer silicene" films were grown on Ag(111), with increasing thickness above 30 monolayers (ML). We found that the "multilayer silicene" is indeed a bulk Si(111) film. Such Si film on Ag(111) always exhibits a root(3)xroot(3)…

Using full potential density functional calculations within local density approximation (LDA), we report our investigation of the structural electronic properties of silicene (the graphene analogue of silicon), the strips of which has been…

We investigate the electron properties of the monolayer and bilayer silicene which is the honeycomb lattice consist of silicon atoms, including the optical conductivity and charged impurity scattering, due to the quasipatricle Dirac-like…

Silicene, an analogue of graphene, was so far predicted to be the only two-dimensional silicon (2D-Si) with massless Dirac fermions. Here we predict a brand new 2D-Si Dirac semimetal, which we name siliconeet [silik'ni:t]. Unexpectedly, it…

Absence of the Dirac cone due to a strong band hybridization is revealed to be a common feature for epitaxial silicene on metal substrates according to our first-principles calculations for silicene on Ir, Cu, Mg, Au, Pt, Al, and Ag…

We investigate the band structure and topological phases of silicene embedded on halogenated Si(111) surface, by virtue of density functional theory and tight-binding calculations.Our results show that the Dirac character of low energy…

Based on first-principles calculations of structure optimization, phonon modes and finite temperature molecular dynamics, we predict that silicon and germanium have stable, two-dimensional, low-buckled, honeycomb structures. Similar to…

Semi-Dirac semimetal is a material exhibiting linear band dispersion in one direction and quadratic band dispersion in the orthogonal direction and, therefore, hosts massless and massive fermions at the same point in the momentum space.…

In this work, we report our results on the geometric and electronic properties of hybrid graphite-like structure made up of silicene and boron nitride (BN) layers. We predict from our calculations that this hybrid bulk system, with…

For most practical applications in electronic devices, two-dimensional materials should be transferred onto semiconducting or insulating substrates, since they are usually generated on metallic substrates. However, the transfer often leads…

We propose a powerful method of controlling interaction between silicene and a substrate utilizing quantum size effect, which allows to grow silicene with tailored electronic properties. As an example we consider silicene on ultrathin…

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…

This article reviews silicene, a relatively new allotrope of silicon, which can also be viewed as the silicon version of graphene. Graphene is a two-dimensional material with unique electronic properties qualitatively different from those…

We report first-principles calculations that clarify stability and electronic structures of silicene on Ag(111) surfaces. We find that several stable structures exist for silicene/Ag(111), exhibiting a variety of images of scanning…

Silicene is a monolayer of silicon atoms forming a honeycomb lattice. The lattice is actually made of two sublattices with a tiny separation. Silicene is a topological insulator, which is characterized by a full insulating gap in the bulk…

Silicene is a monolayer of silicon atoms forming a two-dimensional honeycomb lattice, which shares almost every remarkable property with graphene. The low energy structure of silicene is described by Dirac electrons with relatively large…

The structure optimization, phonon, and ab initio finite temperature molecular dynamics calculations have been performed to predict that bilayer silicene has stable structure with AB stacking geometry and is more favorable energetically to…
