摘要:

在SiC(0001)表面(SiC的硅面)上,通过从衬底升华Si来获得外延石墨烯。石墨烯膜通过富碳界面层(下文称为缓冲层)与本体分离,富碳界面层部分地共价结合到衬底。它的结构和电子性质目前正在讨论中。在目前的工作中,我们报告的扫描隧道显微镜(STM)研究的缓冲层和准独立的单层石墨烯(QFMLG),这是通过脱耦合的缓冲层从SiC(0001)衬底通过插氢。缓冲层的原子分辨率STM图像显示,在该界面层的周期性结构内,原子的排列在拓扑上与石墨烯相同。插氢后,我们表明,所得到的QFMLG是从周期性的缺陷,并提出了没有可检测的缺陷网站。

英文摘要:

On the SiC(0001) surface (the silicon face of SiC), epitaxial graphene is obtained by sublimation of Si from the substrate. The graphene film is separated from the bulk by a carbon-rich interface layer (hereafter called the buffer layer) which in part covalently binds to the substrate. Its structural and electronic properties are currently under debate. In the present work we report scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) studies of the buffer layer and of quasi-free-standing monolayer graphene (QFMLG) that is obtained by decoupling the buffer layer from the SiC(0001) substrate by means of hydrogen intercalation. Atomic resolution STM images of the buffer layer reveal that, within the periodic structural corrugation of this interfacial layer, the arrangement of atoms is topologically identical to that of graphene. After hydrogen intercalation, we show that the resulting QFMLG is relieved from the periodic corrugation and presents no detectable defect sites.
