Silicene, a silicon analogue of graphene, has attracted increasing attention during the past
few years. As early as in 1994, the possibility of stage corrugation in the Si analogs of …

Silicene, the ultimate scaling of a silicon atomic sheet in a buckled honeycomb lattice,
represents a monoelemental class of two-dimensional (2D) materials similar to graphene …

During the last decade, there has been considerable interest of researchers towards the use
of two-dimensional (2D) materials for the electronic device implementations. The main …

Silicene is the silicon counterpart of graphene, ie it consists in a single layer of Si atoms with
a hexagonal arrangement. We present a review of recent theoretical and experimental …

The extraordinary properties of graphene have spurred huge interest in the experimental
realization of a two-dimensional honeycomb lattice of silicon, namely, silicene. However, its …

Graphene, consisting of an inert, thermally stable material with an atomically flat, dangling-
bond-free surface, is by essence an ideal template layer for van der Waals heteroepitaxy of …

The discovery of graphene has inspired extensive interest in two‐dimensional (2D)
materials, and has led to synthesis/growth of additional 2D materials, generally referred to …

This book reviews the current state-of-the art of single layer silicene up to thicker silicon
nanosheets, and their structure, properties and potential applications. Silicene is a newly …

In its freestanding, yet hypothetical form, the Si counterpart of graphene called silicene is
predicted to possess massless Dirac fermions and to exhibit an experimentally accessible …

In the realm of two-dimensional material frameworks, single-element graphene-like lattices,
known as Xenes, pose several issues concerning their environmental stability, with …
