Figure 2

(a) Atomic structure of the system. Red and green circles represent the Tl and Si atoms, respectively, and the blue arrows indicate the mirror planes. (b) The SBZ of Tl/Si(111)-(1 × 1). The symmetry points and are indicated by dark-blue and light-blue circles. (c) Energy-band dispersions obtained by a relativistic first-principles band calculation. Red and blue lines are spin-polarized surface states.
