Silicene, a new silicon allotrope with a graphene-like honeycomb structure, has recently attracted considerable interest, because its topology confers to it the same remarkable electronic properties as those of graphene, with the potential advantage of being easily integrated in current Si-based nano/micro-electronics offering novel technological applications.
We will discuss the epitaxial formation of single layer silicene on Ag substrates and its structural and electronic properties [1-2]. Based on these results we will look at the growth of silicene multi-layers which can be explained by stacking of single silicene sheets [3-4]. Different experimental techniques are used to investigate atomic structure and electronic properties of this layered system and to discuss its similarities to graphite.
