Two-dimensional (2D) materials have become a new territory for exploring novel properties and functionalities because of their superior tunability. The unprecedented tunability of 2D materials is also accompanied by many and equally great…
Tuning the chemical potential of a solid to the vicinity of a van Hove singularity (vHS) is a well-established route to discovering emergent quantum phases. In monolayer graphene, the use of electron-donating metal layers has recently…

The ultimate surface exposure provided by graphene monolayer makes it the ideal sensor platform but also exposes its intrinsic properties to any environmental perturbations. In this work, we demonstrate that the charge carrier density of…

The synthesis of transition metals in a two-dimensional (2D) fashion has attracted growing attention for both fundamental and application-oriented investigations, such as 2D magnetism, nanoplasmonics and non-linear optics. However, the…
The application of graphene in electronic devices requires large scale epitaxial growth. The presence of the substrate, however, usually reduces the charge carrier mobility considerably. We show that it is possible to decouple the partially…

We perform local nanoscale studies of the surface and interface structure of hydrogen intercalated graphene on 4H-SiC(1000). In particular, we show that intercalation of the interfacial layer results in the formation of quasi-free standing…
It has been shown that the first C layer on the SiC(0001)(2{\times}2)C surface already exhibits graphene-like electronic structure, with linear pi bands near the Dirac point. Indeed, the (2{\times}2)C reconstruction, with a Si adatom and C…
