Experimental realization of graphene-like borophene
Wenbin Li, Longjuan Kong, Caiyun Chen +7
We report a successful preparation of a purely honeycomb, graphene-like borophene, by using an Al(111) surface as the substrate and molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) growth in ultrahigh…
Direct evidences of pentagonal silicon chains and magic clusters
Shaoxiang Sheng, Runze Ma, Jiangbin Wu +11
Pentagon is one of the most beautiful geometric structures in nature, but it is rarely seen simply because five-fold symmetry is mathematically forbidden in a 2D or 3D periodic lat…
Strain-Induced Band Engineering in Monolayer Stanene on Sb(111)
Jian Gou, Longjuan Kong, Hui Li +5
Two-dimensional (2D) allotrope of tin with low buckled honeycomb structure, named as stanene, is proposed to be an ideal 2D topological insulator with a nontrivial gap larger than…
Synthesis of Borophene Nanoribbons on Ag(110) Surface
Qing Zhong, Longjuan Kong, Jian Gou +7
We present the successful synthesis of single-atom-thick borophene nanoribbons (BNRs) by self-assembly of boron on Ag(110) surface. The scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) studies…
