In terms of the state-of-the-art first principle computational methods combined with the numerical renormalization group technique the spectroscopic properties of Co adatoms deposited on silicene are analyzed. By establishing an effective low-energy Hamiltonian based on first principle calculations, we study the behavior of the local density of states of Co adatom on external parameters, such as magnetic field and gating. It is shown that the Kondo resonance with the Kondo temperature of the order of a few Kelvins can emerge by fine-tuning the chemical potential. The evolution and splitting of the Kondo peak with external magnetic field is also analyzed. Furthermore, it is shown that the spin polarization of adatoms spectral function in the presence of magnetic field can be relatively large, and it is possible to tune the polarization and its sign by electrical means.

Low-temperature scanning tunneling spectroscopy reveals that the Kondo temperature T_K of Co atoms adsorbed on Cu/Co/Cu(100) multilayers varies between 60 K and 134 K as the Cu film thickness decreases from 20 to 5 atomic layers. The observed change
of T_K is attributed to a variation of the density of states at the Fermi level rho_F induced by quantum well states confined to the Cu film. A model calculation based on the quantum oscillations of rho_F at the belly and the neck of the Cu Fermi surface reproduces most of the features in the measured variation of T_K.
We present first-principles calculations of silicene/graphene and germanene/graphene bilayers. Various supercell models are constructed in the calculations in order to reduce the strain of the lattice-mismatched bilayer systems. Our energetics analys
is and electronic structure results suggest that graphene can be used as a substrate to synthesize monolayer silicene and germanene. Multiple phases of single crystalline silicene and germanene with different orientations relative to the substrate could coexist at room temperature. The weak interaction between the overlayer and the substrate preserves the low-buckled structure of silicene and germanene, as well as their linear energy bands. The gap induced by breaking the sublattice symmetry in silicene on graphene can be up to 57 meV.
As graphene became one of the most important materials today, there is a renewed interest on others similar structures. One example is silicene, the silicon analogue of graphene. It share some the remarkable graphene properties, such as the Dirac con
e, but presents some distinct ones, such as a pronounced structural buckling. We have investigated, through density functional based tight-binding (DFTB), as well as reactive molecular dynamics (using ReaxFF), the mechanical properties of suspended single-layer silicene. We calculated the elastic constants, analyzed the fracture patterns and edge reconstructions. We also addressed the stress distributions, unbuckling mechanisms and the fracture dependence on the temperature. We analysed the differences due to distinct edge morphologies, namely zigzag and armchair.
This is a popular review of some recent investigations of the Kondo effect in a variety of mesoscopic systems. After a brief introduction, experiments are described where a scanning tunneling microscope measures the surroundings of a magnetic impurit
y on a metal surface. In another set of experiments, Kondo effect creates a number of characteristic features in the electron transport through small electronic devices -- semiconductor quantum dots or single-molecule transistors which can be tuned by applying appropriate gate voltages. The article contains 5 color figures, photo of Jun Kondo, but no equations.
The thermoelectric properties in one- and two-dimensional silicon and germanium structures have been investigated using first-principle density functional techniques and linear response for the thermal and electrical transport. We have considered her
e the two-dimensional silicene and germanene, together with nano-ribbons of different widths. For the nano-ribbons, we have also investigated the possibility of nano-structuring these systems by mixing silicon and germanium. We found that the figure of merit at room temperature of these systems is remarkably high, up to 2.5.
