Silicene on metal and metallized surfaces: ab initio studies

The deposition of silicene on several metals is investigated. For fcc crystals the (111) surfaces while for hexagonal ones the (0001) surfaces are used. The Ca(111)1 × 1 substrate is found to be the most promising candidate. The silicene adsorption on Ca-functionalized Si(111)1 × 1 and 2 × 1 surface...
