A Vision on Organosilicon Chemistry and Silicene

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Book cover Silicene

Part of the book series: NanoScience and Technology ((NANO))

Abstract

Replacement of carbon atoms from aromatic molecules and their two-dimensional extended analogues (graphene) have been predicted to have interesting structural diversity and tunable electronic properties. Recent progress in the experimental realization of such systems is discussed along with a conceptual understanding of the structural properties of planar organosilicon compounds and silicene. Psuedo Jahn-Teller (PJT) distortion is shown to contribute to the buckling distortions in silicene which make them excellent materials for band-gap tuning through hydrogenation. Chemical doping of silicene by cations is suggested to be a strategy to suppress buckling of silicene and regain its perfect planar two-dimensional silicon framework. TERS spectroscopy is proposed as a tool to probe the presence or absence of buckling distortions in silicene and cation doped silicene respectively.
