of the synthesis of 2D materials is not yet complete. Structural parameters, such as the corrugation of the honeycomb lattice, called buckling, or the interface structure of a 2D material to the substrate [...] structural evolution of the promising 2D material germanene on Ag(111). It provides a survey of germanium formations discovered at different layer thicknesses, like the Ag2Ge surface alloy (SAP), the striped [...] ZOOM In the past decade, research on 2D materials has expanded massively due to the popularity of graphene. Its superb electronic and mechanical properties have attracted attention, which opened a new …
