STM and STS study of atomic and electronic structure of epitaxial graphene on SiC(0001)Peter Lauffer1, Konstantin V.

Epitaxial growth of graphene on SiC surfaces by solid state graphitization is a promising route for future development of graphene based electronics. In the present work we have studied the morphology, atomic scale structure, and electronic structure of thin films of few-layer graphene on SiC(0001) by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and spectroscopy (STS). We discuss the determination of layer thickness based on atomically resolved images and show that such identification can be supported by evaluation of the roughness induced by the interface. We also present and interpret thickness dependent tunneling spectra, which can serve as an additional fingerprint for the determination of the layer thickness.
