The successful isolation of a single layer of graphene has led to great interest in finding other 2D materials with similar electronic characteristics with additional spin-dependent phenomena. In this work, a 2D allotrope of Sn is grown on an Au(111) surface and shown through angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy to have a linear band dispersion at the zone center and anti-parallel spin polarization.
