STM growth study of epitaxial graphene on SiC(0001) — •Anne Majerus, Viktor Geringer, Sven Runte, Marcus Liebmann, and Markus Morgenstern — II. Physikalisches Institut, RWTH Aachen and JARA-FIT, Otto-Blumenthal-Straße, 52074 Aachen

The easiest way to produce graphene is mechanical exfoliation from graphite crystals [K. S. Novoselov et al., Science 306, 666 (2004)]. However, the preparation of graphene under clean conditions requires the use of ultra high vacuum (UHV) [I. Forbeaux et al. , Appl. Surf. Sci. 162, 406 (2000)].

In this work, we present a growth study of graphene on SiC. An untreated SiC(0001) crystal was put through several annealing cycles until we produced a few layers of epitaxial graphene. To determine the changes in the morphology during the different stages of graphitization, low-energy electron diffraction (LEED) and scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) measurements were performed. The surface structures determined by LEED could also be detected directly by STM, exhibiting atomic resolution.
