We report the crystal structures and superconductivity (SC) of LaPt$_{x}$Si$_{2-x}$ ($0.5 \leq x \leq 1.0$) that are solid solutions of LaSi$_{2}$ and LaPtSi with centrosymmetric tetragonal ($I4_{1}/amd$, $D_{4h}^{19}$, \#141) and…

In this Letter, we demonstrate that it is possible to form a two-dimensional (2D) silicene-like Si$_5$Ge compound by replacing the Si atoms occupying on-top sites in the planar-like structure of epitaxial silicene on ZrB$_2$(0001) by…

We have studied the reconstruction of Pt(111) theoretically using a two-dimensional Frenkel-Kontorova model for which all parameters have been obtained from ab initio calculations. We find that the unreconstructed surface lies right at the…

The interaction of silicene with Si, C, H, O, Ti atoms along with H$_2$, H$_2$O and O$_2$ molecules are investigated and the induced functionalities thereof are analyzed using first principles density functional theory. Si adatom initially…

We report scanning tunneling microscopy observations of Ge deposited on the Si(111)-7x7 surface for a sequence of sub-monolayer coverages. We demonstrate that Ge atoms replace so-called Si adatoms. Initially, the replacements are random,…

We report an experimental refinement of the local charge density at the Si (111) 7x7 surface utilizing a combination of x-ray and high energy electron diffraction. By perturbing about a bond-centered pseudoatom model, we find experimentally…

The synthesis of IrI$_3$ at high pressure in its layered honeycomb polymorph is reported. Its crystal structure is refined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Faults in the honeycomb layer stacking are observed by single crystal…

At a given temperature, clean and adatom covered silicon surfaces usually exhibit well-defined reconstruction patterns. Our finite temperature ab-initio molecular dynamics calculations show that the tellurium covered Si(001) surface is an…

Using first-principles plane wave calculations, we investigate two dimensional honeycomb structure of Group IV elements and their binary compounds, as well as the compounds of Group III-V elements. Based on structure optimization and phonon…

We discuss the possibility of a 2D ordered structure formed upon deposition of Si on metal surfaces. We investigate the atomic and electronic structure of the Si-$(\sqrt{19}\times\sqrt{19})R23.4^{\circ}$/Pt(111) surface reconstruction by…

Self-assembled arrays of atomic chains on Si(111) represent a fascinating family of nanostructures with quasi-one-dimensional electronic properties. These surface reconstructions are stabilized by a variety of adsorbates ranging from alkali…

The theoretical framework, which is built from the first-principles results, is successfully developed for investigating emergent two-dimensional (2D) materials, as it is clearly illustrated by carbon substitution in silicene. Computer…

We present a study of mechanical, electronic and magnetic properties of two dimensional (2D), monolayer of silicon carbide (SiC) in honeycomb structure and its quasi 1D armchair nanoribbons using first-principles plane wave method. In order…

A magnetic origin for the honeycomb reconstruction of metallic surfaces with three-fold symmetry like Pb/Ge (111) is proposed. Assuming that the groundstate is an antiferromagnetic insulator over the triangular lattice of adatom sites (Pb),…

Exploring new two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals (vdW) systems is at the forefront of materials physics. Here, through molecular beam epitaxy on graphene-covered SiC(0001), we report successful growth of AlSb in the double-layer honeycomb…

Si-Ge monolayers (SiGeM) with different elementary proportion x (0<x<1) were systematically studied for the first-time using ab initio calculations in this work. The structural stabilities of the Si1-xGexM with different symmetries were…

Superconductivity in BaPtSb with the SrPtSb-type structure (space group $P\bar{6}m2$, $D_{3h}^1$, No. 187) is reported. The structure consists of a PtSb ordered honeycomb network that stacks along the $c$-axis so that spatial inversion…

We perform ab initio plane wave supercell density functional calculations on three candidate models of the (3 x 2) reconstruction of the beta-SiC(001) surface. We find that the two-adlayer asymmetric-dimer model (TAADM) is unambiguously…

An ability of various interatomic potentials to reproduce the properties of silicene (2D silicon) polymorphs were examined. Structural and mechanical properties of the flat (FS), low-buckled (LBS), trigonal dumbbell (TDS), honeycomb…

Freestanding silicene, a monolayer of Si arranged in a honeycomb structure, has been predicted to give rise to massless Dirac fermions, akin to graphene. However, Si structures grown on a supporting substrate can show properties that…
