| Popis: |
The boson peak is an excess in the phonon density of states relative to the Debye Model, which occurs at frequencies below the Debye limit. It is present in most amorphous materials and, as was recently shown, can sometimes be found also in crystals. Here we present first experimental evidence of the boson peak in a 2D material, namely 2D silica (SiO$_2$). The measurements were obtained by helium atom scattering. A dispersionless boson peak is seen at $6 \pm 0.5$ meV (1.5$ \pm$ 0.15 THz) and $-6 \pm 1.5$ meV ($-1.5 \pm 0.4$ THz), with reasonable evidence for a double excitation at $\pm 12 \pm 2.5$ meV ($2.9 \pm 0.6$ THz). |
