Title
Atomic Structure Of Silicene Nanoribbons On Ag(110)
Abstract
The growth of silicene nano-ribbons (NRs) on Ag(110) substrate is re-investigated using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and low energy electron diffraction (LEED). Deposition of one silicon monolayer at 230°C induces the formation of one-dimensional 1.6 nm wide silicene nanoribbons into a well-ordered compact array with a nanometer-scale pitch of just 2 nm. Based on the STM analysis we derived an atomic model of the silicene nanoribbons (NRs) where they are substantially buckled, and quantum confinement of the electrons in the NRs contribute to electronic density of states. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
