China and 2 School of Physics and Technology, Wuhan University, Wuhan 430072, P.R. China Plumbene, similar to silicene, has a buckled honeycomb structure with a large band gap ( 400 meV). All previous studies have shown that it is a normal insulator. Here, we perform first-principles∼ calculations and employ a sixteen-band tight-binding model with nearest-neighbor and next-nearest-neighbor hopping terms to investigate electronic structures and topological properties of the plumbene monolayer. We find that it can be- come a topological insulator with a large bulk gap ( 200 meV) through electron doping, and the nontrivial state is very robust with respect to external strain. Plumbene∼ can be an ideal candidate for realizing the quantum spin Hall effect at room temperature. By investigating effects of external electric and magnetic fields on electronic structures and transport properties of plumbene, we present two rich phase diagrams with and without electron doping, and propose a theoretical design for a four-state spin-valley filter.

  • Thickness of Elemental and Binary Single Atomic Monolayers Cite This: Nanoscale Horiz., 2020, 5,385 Peter Hess
    Nanoscale Horizons View Article Online FOCUS View Journal | View Issue Thickness of elemental and binary single atomic monolayers Cite this: Nanoscale Horiz., 2020, 5,385 Peter Hess The thickness of monolayers is a fundamental property of two-dimensional (2D) materials that has not found the necessary attention. It plays a crucial role in their mechanical behavior, the determination of related physical properties such as heat transfer, and especially the properties of multilayer systems. Measurements of the thickness of free-standing monolayers are widely lacking and notoriously too large. Consistent thicknesses have been reported for single layers of graphene, boronitrene, and SiC derived from interlayer spacing measured by X-ray diffraction in multilayer systems, first-principles calculations of the interlayer spacing, and tabulated van der Waals (vdW) diameters. Furthermore, the electron density-based volume model agrees with the geometric slab model for graphene and boronitrene. For other single-atom monolayers DFT calculations and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations deliver interlayer distances that are often much smaller than the vdW diameter, owing to further electrostatic and (weak) covalent interlayer interaction. Monolayers strongly bonded to a surface Received 14th October 2019, also show this effect. If only weak vdW forces exist, the vdW diameter delivers a reasonable thickness not Accepted 18th November 2019 only for free-standing monolayers but also for few-layer systems and adsorbed monolayers. Adding the DOI: 10.1039/c9nh00658c usually known corrugation effect of buckled or puckered monolayers to the vdW diameter delivers an upper limit of the monolayer thickness. The study presents a reference database of thickness values for rsc.li/nanoscale-horizons elemental and binary group-IV and group-V monolayers, as well as binary III–V and IV–VI compounds.

Energy consumption have been increased significantly due to the industrial development, supermarkets, automobiles and household appliances. And day after day this ever growing demand for energy is increasing. However, the total amount of energy in the world is fixed. As a result to compensate for future demands for energy or to sustain in the distant future researchers are trying not only to find new sources of energy but also they are looking for efficient use of existing energy. Yes, it is true that in this modern era of science and technology, we are wasting a lot of energy such as low grade heat. This low grade heat can be integrated to some of the wonders of modern science like adsorption cooling systems. These systems can use low grade heat to produce cooling effect.

    Plumbene on a magnetic substrate: a combined STM and DFT study Gustav Bihlmayer,1, ∗ Jonas Sassmannshausen,2 Andr´eKubetzka,2 Stefan Bl¨ugel,1 Kirsten von Bergmann,2, y and Roland Wiesendanger2 1Peter Gr¨unberg Institut and Institute for Advanced Simulation, Forschungszentrum J¨ulich& JARA, 52425 J¨ulich, Germany 2Department of Physics, University of Hamburg, D-20355 Hamburg, Germany (Dated: June 26, 2020) As heavy analog of graphene, plumbene is a two-dimensional material with strong spin-orbit coupling effects. Using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), we observe that Pb forms a flat hon- eycomb lattice on an Fe monolayer on Ir(111). In contrast, without the Fe layer, a c(2×4) structure of Pb on Ir(111) is found. We use density functional theory (DFT) calculations to rationalize these findings and analyze the impact of the hybridization on the plumbene band structure. In the unoc- cupied states the splitting of the Dirac cone by spin-orbit interaction is clearly observed while in the occupied states of the freestanding plumbene we find a band inversion that leads to the formation of a topologically non-trivial gap. Exchange splitting as mediated by the strong hybridization with the Fe layer drives a quantum spin Hall to quantum anomalous Hall state transition.

We report an approach using Pb-atom deposition to striped-phase (SP) germanene grown on Ag(111) to trigger it to a quasifreestanding phase (QP). Using low-energy electron diffraction (LEED) and scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), we demonstrate that the 2D monatomic Pb layer, instead of being on top, grows side-by-side with QP germanene, not only driving the SP-to-QP transition but further enhancing the lattice order of QP as revealed by the dramatic evolution of LEED-spot shape and uniform STM-imaged array of moiré patterns. Originally oriented at 30° to Ag(111), the QP germanene transits first to a narrow distribution of rotations then to two sharp domains at ±3° from 30°, while the monoatomic Pb domains twist from ±4.3° to ±9.5° with respect to Ag(111).

Olivetti 2, I-20864 Agrate Brianza, Italy * Correspondence: [email protected] (C.G.); [email protected] (C.M.) Abstract: The recent outcomes related to the Xenes, the two-dimensional (2D) monoelemental graphene-like materials, in three interdisciplinary fields such as electronics, photonics and processing are here reviewed by focusing on peculiar growth and device integration aspects. In contrast with forerunner 2D materials such as graphene and transition metal dichalcogenides, the Xenes pose new and intriguing challenges for their synthesis and exploitation because of their artificial nature and stabilization issues. This effort is however rewarded by a fascinating and versatile scenario where the manipulation of the matter properties at the atomic scale paves the way to potential applications never reported to date. The current state-of-the-art about electronic integration of the Xenes, their optical and photonics properties, and the developed processing methodologies are summarized, whereas future challenges and critical aspects are tentatively outlined.

Kawsar Alam * Topologically protected edge states of 2D quantum spin Hall (QSH) insulators have paved the way for dissipationless transport. In this regard, one of the key challenges is to find suitable QSH insulators with large bandgaps. Group IV analogues of graphene such as silicene, germanene, stanene, plumbene etc. are promising materials for QSH insulators. This is because their high spin–orbit coupling (SOC) and large bandgap opening may be possible by chemically decorating these group IV graphene analogues. However, finding suitable chemical groups for such decoration has always been a demanding task. In this work, we investigate the performance of a plumbene monolayer with –CX3 (X ¼ H, F, Cl) chemical decoration and report very large bandgaps in the range of 0.8414 eV to 0.9818 eV with spin–orbit Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 3.0 Unported Licence. coupling, which is much higher compared to most other topological insulators and realizable at room temperature. The ℤ2 topological invariants of the samples are calculated to confirm their topologically nontrivial properties. The existence of edge states and topological nontrivial property are illustrated by Received 17th September 2019 investigating PbCX nanoribbons with zigzag edges. Lastly, the structural and electronic stability of the Accepted 9th December 2019 3 topological materials against strain are demonstrated to extend the scope of using these materials.

  • Spin Splitting and Spin Hall Conductivity in Buckled Monolayers of the Group 14: first-Principles Calculations
    Spin splitting and spin Hall conductivity in buckled monolayers of the group 14: first-principles calculations S. M. Farzaneh∗ Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, New York University, Brooklyn, New York 11201, USA Shaloo Rakhejay Holonyak Micro and Nanotechnology Laboratory University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Urbana, Illinois 61801, USA Elemental monolayers of the group 14 with a buckled honeycomb structure, namely silicene, germanene, stanene, and plumbene, are known to demonstrate a spin splitting as a result of an electric field parallel to their high symmetry axis which is capable of tuning their topological phase between a quantum spin Hall insulator and an ordinary band insulator. We perform first-principles calculations based on the density functional theory to quantify the spin-dependent band gaps and the spin splitting as a function of the applied electric field and extract the main coefficients of the invariant Hamiltonian. Using the linear response theory and the Wannier interpolation method, we calculate the spin Hall conductivity in the monolayers and study its sensitivity to an external electric field. Our results show that the spin Hall conductivity is not quantized and in the case of silicene, germanene, and stanene degrades significantly as the electric field inverts the band gap and brings the monolayer into the trivial phase. The electric field induced band gap does not close in the case of plumbene which shows a spin Hall conductivity that is robust to the external electric field. I. INTRODUCTION successful isolation of graphene a decade ago [8], other members of this family came into existence starting from The buckled monolayers of the group 14 possess a topo- silicene [9{12], which was followed by germanene [13, 14] logical phase known as the quantum spin Hall insulator and more recently by stanene [5, 15, 16] and plumbene [6].
