Recent experimental realization of Stanene, a two dimensional allotrope of Sn in a graphene-like structure, has motivated intense research on related Sn based ultrathin materials. We have investigated the growth of Sn on Au(111). Using low energy electron diffraction (LEED) and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, we found five surface reconstructions, each with a distinct band structure. Starting from a coverage of 0.3 monolayers, Sn forms a (√3×√3)R30^∘ surface alloy which transforms into a complex superstructure for higher Sn coverages. An angle-resolved photoemission study shows inverted V-shaped bands which are symmetrically centered at the Gamma-point. Additionally, we observed states with parabolic dispersion showing a Rashba-type spin splitting. A direct comparison between our experimental results and band structure calculations will allow us to discuss the formation of Stanene-like band dispersions for these Sn/Au reconstructed surfaces.
