Figure 2

Equilibrium spin and pseudo-spin polarizations in silicene. (a) Pseudo-spin polarization of the first conduction band (n = 3). (b) Pseudo-spin polarization of the second valance band (n = 2). (c) Spin polarization of the second valance band (n = 2). (d) Spin polarization of the first conduction band (n = 3). States are fully spin and pseudo-spin polarized very close to the Dirac points and become partially polarized away from these points.
