    Kagome-Like Silicene: a Novel Exotic Form of Two-Dimensional Epitaxial Silicon
    (Elsevier, 2020) Sassa, Yasmine; Şahin, Hasan; Johansson, Fredrik O. L.; Lindblad, Andreas; Yazdi, Milad G.; Simonov, Konstantin; Weissenrieder, Jonas; Le Lay, Guy; İyikanat, Fadıl; Şahin, Hasan; 04.04. Department of Photonics; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    Since the discovery of graphene, intensive efforts have been made in search of novel two-dimensional (2D) materials. Decreasing the materials dimensionality to their ultimate thinness is a promising route to unveil new physical phenomena, and potentially improve the performance of devices. Among recent 2D materials, analogs of graphene, the group IV elements have attracted much attention for their unexpected and tunable physical properties. Depending on the growth conditions and substrates, several structures of silicene, germanene, and stanene can be formed. Here, we report the synthesis of a Kagome-like lattice of silicene on aluminum (1 1 1) substrates. We provide evidence of such an exotic 2D Si allotrope through scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) observations, high-resolution core-level (CL) and angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (ARPES) measurements, along with Density Functional Theory calculations.

    Orthorhombic Cspbi3 Perovskites: Thickness-Dependent Structural, Optical and Vibrational Properties
    (Elsevier, 2020) Özen, Sercan; Şahin, Hasan; İyikanat, Fadıl; Sözen, Yiğit; Özcan, Mehmet; Eren, İsmail; Tekneci, Gülsüm Efsun; Eren, İsmail; Sözen, Yiğit; Şahin, Hasan; 04.05. Department of Pyhsics; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology; 04.04. Department of Photonics; 04. Faculty of Science
    Cesium lead halide perovskites have been subject to intense investigation, mostly because of their potential to be used in optoelectronic device applications. However, regarding the need for nanoscale materials in forthcoming nanotechnology applications, understanding of how the characteristic properties of these perovskite crystals are modified through dimensional crossover is essential. In this study, thickness-dependence of the structural, electronic and vibrational properties of orthorhombic CsPbI3, which is one of the most stable phase at room temperature, is investigated by means of state-of-the-art first-principles calculations. Our results show that (i) bilayers and monolayers of CsPbI3 can be stabilized in orthorhombic crystal symmetry, (ii) among; the possible ultra-thin perovskites only structures with CsI-terminated surface are dynamically stable (iii) electronic band gap increases with decrease in perovskite thickness due to quantum size effect and (iv) reflectivity and transmissivity of the orthorhombic CsPbI3 can be tuned by varying the thickness that modifies the electron confinement.
