Epitaxial growth of a silicene sheet
Boubekeur Lalmi,Hamid Oughaddou,Hanna Enriquez,Abdelkader Kara,Sébastien Vizzini,B. Ealet,Bernard Aufray +6 more
TL;DR: Using atomic resolved scanning tunneling microscopy, the experimental evidence of a silicene sheet epitaxially grown on a close-packed silver surface [Ag(111] was presented in this article, which was achieved via direct condensation of a silicon atomic flux onto the single-crystal substrate in ultrahigh vacuum conditions.

Tunable Bandgap in Silicene and Germanene
Zeyuan Ni,Qihang Liu,Kechao Tang,Jiaxin Zheng,Jing Zhou,Rui Qin,Zhengxiang Gao,Dapeng Yu,Jing Lu +8 more
TL;DR: Ab initio quantum transport simulation of a dual-gated silicene field effect transistor confirms that the vertical electric field opens a transport gap, and a significant switching effect by an applied gate voltage is also observed, meaning biased single-layer silicenes and germanene can work effectively at room temperature as field effect transistors.

Electric Field Effect in Atomically Thin Carbon Films
Kostya S. Novoselov,Andre K. Geim,Sergey V. Morozov,Da Jiang,Y. Zhang,S. V. Dubonos,Irina V. Grigorieva,A. A. Firsov +7 more
TL;DR: Monocrystalline graphitic films are found to be a two-dimensional semimetal with a tiny overlap between valence and conductance bands and they exhibit a strong ambipolar electric field effect.

The rise of graphene
TL;DR: Owing to its unusual electronic spectrum, graphene has led to the emergence of a new paradigm of 'relativistic' condensed-matter physics, where quantum relativistic phenomena can now be mimicked and tested in table-top experiments.

Graphane: A two-dimensional hydrocarbon
TL;DR: In this paper, the stability of graphane was predicted based on first-principles total energy calculations, which is a fully saturated two-dimensional hydrocarbon derived from a single graphene sheet with formula CH.

Graphene on metal surfaces
TL;DR: In this article, a review of work on graphene monolayers adsorbed on metal surfaces is presented, with a focus on the metal/graphene interaction. But the authors do not consider the effect of the metal-graphenes interaction on the electronic structure.
