Molecular beam epitaxy of graphene on ultra-smooth nickel: growth mode and substrate interactions
Graphene is grown by molecular beam epitaxy using epitaxial Ni films on MgO(111) as substrates. Raman spectroscopy and scanning tunneling microscopy reveal the graphene films to have few crystalline defects. While the layers are ultra-smooth over large areas, we find that Ni surface features lead to...
