Ab Initio Study of Graphene on SiC

Open access
Mattausch, Alexander, Pankratov, Oleg·2007·Physical Review Letters

Abstract

Employing density-functional calculations we study single and double graphene layers on Si- and C-terminated 1x1-6H-SiC surfaces. We show that, in contrast with earlier assumptions, the first carbon layer is covalently bonded to the substrate and cannot be responsible for the graphene-type electronic spectrum observed experimentally. The characteristic spectrum of freestanding graphene appears with the second carbon layer, which exhibits a weak van der Waals bonding to the underlying structure. For Si-terminated substrate, the interface is metallic, whereas on C face it is semiconducting or semimetallic for single or double graphene coverage, respectively.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
