How the SiC substrate impacts graphene atomic and electronic structures

Materials Science 2015-05-13 v1 Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics

Abstract

Graphene, the two-dimensional form of carbon presents outstanding electronic and transport properties. This gives hope for the development of applications in nanoelectronics. However, for industrial purpose, graphene has to be supported by a substrate. We focus here on the graphene-on-SiC system to discuss how the SiC substrate interacts with the graphene layer and to show the effect of the interface on graphene atomic and electronic structures.
