In article number 1806130 , Wenguang Zhu, Shao‐Chun Li, and co‐workers describe the fabrication of monolayer α‐phase antimonene, a structural analog to black phosphorous, on a WTe 2 substrate by molecular beam epitaxy. The α‐antimonene exhibits great stability upon exposure to air. Its electron band, crossing the Fermi level, exhibits a linear dispersion with a fairly small effective mass, and thus, a good electrical conductivity. All of these properties make α‐antimonene promising for future electronic applications.
