Applications in opto-electronics: general discussion.

Alessandro Molle responded: Al 2 O 3 encapsulation of Xenes was engineered to minimizeornullifytheeffectonthesiliceneandmoregenerallyontheXenes. Alessandro Molle answered: The DFT simulation is reported as a conceptual experiment to sustain the experimental picture resulting from the XPS and Raman spectroscopy evidence of silicene stabilization aer encapsulation.

Thisfact stems from the details of the Al 2 O 3 growth, namely Al 2 O 3 is sequentially grown aer silicene,developingrstthroughAlsinglelayergrowthfollowedbyAl-O 2 co-deposition at room temperature, eventually ending up with a nal Al 2 O 3 layer with controlled thickness.
