The atomic and electronic structure of the graphene/Al/Ni(111) system is studied via combination of experimental methods and density functional theory calculations. It has been demonstrated, that the graphene layer can be effectively decoupled from the ferromagnetic substrate via intercalation of the sp metal [1]. Despite the symmetry in the graphene lattice is broken in the trilayer under consideration, there is no sizable energy gap for the π states around the K point of Brillouin zone. In this talk, properties of graphene/Ni(111) and graphene/Al/Ni(111) are compared. The perspectives of application of the Al-based intercalation-like systems are discussed.
