▎ 摘　　要

The structure and electrical properties of two-dimensional (2D) sheets of silicon on a graphene substrate are studied using first-principles calculations. Two forms of corrugated silicon sheets are proposed to be energetically favorable structures. A shift of the Fermi energy level is found in both corrugated structures. Calculations of electron density show a weak coupling between the silicon layer and graphene substrate in both structures. The two forms of 2D silicon sheets turn out to be metallic and exhibit anisotropic transport properties. (C) 2013 AIP Publishing LLC.
