Exploring Ag(111) Substrate for Epitaxially Growing Monolayer Stanene: A First-Principles Study
Stanene, a two-dimensional topological insulator composed of Sn atoms in a hexagonal lattice, is a promising contender to Si in nanoelectronics. Currently it is still a significant challenge to achieve large-area, high-quality monolayer stanene. We explore the potential of Ag(111) surface as an idea...
