Abstract

Following the successful preparation of silicene, the focusing issue is whether silicene indeed exhibits the exotic electronic properties predicted theoretically. To study the electronic structure of silicene, angle resolved photoelectron emission spectroscopy and scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy are the two major experimental techniques. The development of cryogenic STM allows the investigation of physical phenomena that occur only at low temperatures or are best seen at low temperature, such as superconductivity, a quantum Hall effect, metal-insulator transition and charge density waves. However, it is equally important that low temperature environment provides a stable and well-regulated platform and greatly improves the performance of STM. In this chapter, we give an overview on the recent progress of silicene on Ag(111) at low temperatures by utilizing cryogenic STM.
