Silicene, a Si-based analogue of graphene, holds a high promise for electronics because of its exceptional properties but a high chemical reactivity makes it a very challenging material to work with. The silicene lattice can be stabilized by active metals to form stoichiometric compounds MSi. Being candidate topological semimetals, these materials provide an opportunity to probe layer dependence of unconventional electronic structures.

Article Synopsis
  • Fish consumption is the primary source of mercury exposure in humans, with concentrations in fish from northwestern Russia ranging from 0.01 to 1.68 μg/g wet weight.
  • Differences in mercury accumulation depend on fish type, diet, size, and water body characteristics, with 7% of fish exceeding Russian regulatory mercury levels.
  • About 44% of fish may lead to mercury intake above acceptable weekly limits for preschoolers, 34% for primary school children, and 17% for adults, raising concerns about safety even when levels are within regulatory standards.
