Description:
Author(s): T. P. Kaloni, S. Gangopadhyay, N. Singh, B. Jones, and U. Schwingenschlögl We study silicene on hexagonal boron nitride, using first-principles calculations. Since hexagonal boron nitride is semiconducting, the interaction with silicene is weaker than for metallic substrates. It therefore is possible to open a 50 meV band gap in the silicene. We further address the effect ... [Phys. Rev. B 88, 235418] Published Tue Dec 17, 2013
