Li Hui†, Hui-Xia Fu, Meng Sheng

(a) and (b) Band structures of the structure of silicene layer and 1×1 structure of free-standing silicene, respectively. (c) Constant energy contours of the Dirac cone of SLS from DFT calculations. (d) A k -space map obtained by Fourier transform of the d I /d V map at voltages of –0.9 V. The hexagon of 1×1 BZ is superimposed.^{[ 18 , 21 ]}
