Abstract:Group‐14 Xenes beyond graphene such as silicene, germanene, and stanene have recently gained a lot of attention for their peculiar electronic properties, which can be tuned by covalent functionalization. Up until now, reported methods for the top‐down synthesis of covalently functionalized silicene and germanene typically yield multilayered flakes with a minimum thickness of 100 nm. Herein, the ex situ covalent functionalization of germanene (fGe) is reported via 1,3‐dipolar cycloaddition of the azomethine yli… Show more
