Nanotribological Properties Of Epitaxial Graphene Grown On C-Terminated Face Of Silicon Carbide Semiconductor

Properties of epitaxial graphene grown on C-face SiC compared to Si-face

Epitaxial graphene on silicon carbide: Introduction to structured graphene

We present an introduction to the rapidly growing field of epitaxial graphene on silicon carbide, tracing its development from the original proof-of-concept experiments a decade ago to its present, highly evolved state. The potential of epitaxial graphene as a new electronic material is now being recognized. Whether the ultimate promise of graphene-based electronics will ever be realized remain...

Graphene Formation on the Carbon face of Silicon Carbide

In this thesis, we study the structure of epitaxial graphene formed on polar faces of SiC the (0001) face, also known as the Si-face, and the (0001 ) face, known as the C-face. On both polar surfaces, graphene films are prepared in ultra-high vacuum (UHV), in environments either of argon or cryogenically purified neon, or in a low-pressure background of disilane. Characterization of graphene is...
