Abstract
The physics of two dimensional (2D) materials is always intriguing in their own right. For all of these elemental 2D materials, a generic characteristic feature is that all the atoms of the materials are exposed on the surface, and thus it turns out to be comparatively easier to tune the structure and physical properties of the materials by surface treatments. The discovery of graphene have fostered an intensive research interest in the field of graphene like 2D materials such as silicene, germanene (hexagonal network of silicon and germanium respectively), stanene, borophene etc. really a zoo of 2D materials.
