In recent years two-dimensional (2D) materials like honeycomb-structured thin films or transition metal dichalcogenides attracted a lot of attention in solid state physics. Lattice symmetry as well as strong spin-orbit coupling leads to phenomena like non-trivial band topology (1,2). Therefore it is important to gain knowledge about the orbital character of the involved valance-state wave functions.
Here we will present a new binary honeycomb lattice namely AgTe, whose structure is realized on a Ag(111)-substrate. Using angle-resolved photoemission we will determine the 2D band structure of the AgTe layer. By means of light-polarization dependent measurements, anisotropies in the band dispersion and linear dichroism we analyze the orbital character of the valence bands. Based on the determined orbital symmetry we discuss a possible topological band inversion in AgTe.
