摘 要:The family of vanadium chalcogenides with variable stoichiometry and abundant crystallographic structures are promising platforms for realizing exotic emergent ***,we report on a novel two-dimensional(2D)tetragonal structure of vanadium telluride(VTe)grown by molecular beam *** atomic structures and electronic properties are revealed by scanning tunneling microscopy and first-principles *** from the hexagonal or trigonal lattices of 2D VTe_(2),the 2D VTe with a V:Te ratio of 1:1 exhibits an uncommon square ***-zero differential conductivity at the Fermi energy detected by scanning tunneling spectroscopy reveals the metallic feature of ***,Friedel oscillations are observed near chiral point defects and domain walls,illustrating the itinerant nature of the electrons close to the Fermi *** firstprinciples structure searches identify a 2D body-centered cubic(bcc)-like structure with a favorable formation energy to be the candidate of the metallic phase of the tetragonal VTe obtained *** on our calculations the 2D bcc-like structure possesses a strong 2D antiferromagnetic *** work enriches the family of vanadium chalcogenides and provides a possible 2D antiferromagnetic material for fabricating advanced spintronic devices.
