Silicene on Ag(111): Reconstructions and first tests of laser-induced non-thermal deposition — •Silke Hattendorf1, Christian Kalupka2, Martin Reininghaus2, Marco Pratzer1, and Markus Morgenstern11II.Institute of Physics B and JARA- FIT, RWTH Aachen — 2Chair for Laser Technology, RWTH Aachen

Silicene, a buckled 2D honeycomb structure made of silicon, was predicted to be stable and exhibit an Dirac cone like graphene[1].

So far, it has been grown on Ag(111)[2], Ir(111)[3] and ZrB2[4]. However, due to strong hybridization with the underlying substrate the Dirac cone is most likely strongly distorted and the silicene states are pushed far into the valence and conduction band[5] making it mandatory to transfer it to a less interacting substrate.

Silicene was grown on Ag(111) at rates between 0.05 and 0.16 ML/min and at a substrate substrate temperature of 200-250C. The atomic structure was studied by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) revealing the known reconstructions (e.g. 4 x 4, √13 x √13)[2].

We tried to transfer the silicene to mica using laser-induced non-thermal deposition [6]. However, possibly due to the strong interaction between the silver and silicene surfaces, this was not successful so far.
