AbstractEpitaxial graphene (EG) grown on the carbon-face of SiC has been shown to exhibit higher carrier mobilities in comparison to other growth techniques amenable to wafer-scale graphene fabrication. The transfer of large area (>mm2) graphene films to substrates amenable for specific applications is desirable. We demonstrate the dry transfer of EG from the C-face of 4H-SiC onto SiO2, GaN and Al2O3 substrates via two approaches using either 1) thermal release tape or 2) a spin-on, chemically-etchable dielectric. Van der Pauw devices fabricated from C-face EG transferred to SiO2 gave similar mobility values and up to three fold reductions in carrier density in comparison to devices fabricated on as-grown material.

Intercalation experiments on epitaxial graphene are attracting a lot of attention at present as a tool to further boost the electronic properties of 2D graphene. In this work, we studied the intercalation of Pb using buffer layers on 6H-SiC(0001) by means of electron diffraction, scanning tunneling microscopy, photoelectron spectroscopy and in situ surface transport. Large-area intercalation of a few Pb monolayers succeeded via surface defects. The intercalated Pb forms a characteristic striped phase and leads to formation of almost charge neutral graphene in proximity to a Pb layer. The Pb intercalated layer consists of 2 ML and shows a strong structural corrugation. The epitaxial heterostructure provides an extremely high conductivity of σ=100 mS/□. However, at low temperatures (70 K), we found a metal-insulator transition that we assign to the formation of minigaps in epitaxial graphene, possibly induced by a static distortion of graphene following the corrugation of the interface layer.

The paper describes the operation of a high-precision wide scale three-dimensional nanopositioning and nanomeasuring machine (NPM-Machine) having a resolution of 0,1 nm over the positioning and measuring range of 25 mm x 25 mm x 5 mm. The NPM-Machine has been developed by the Technische Universität Ilmenau and manufactured by the SIOS Meßtechnik GmbH Ilmenau. The machines are operating successfully in several German and foreign research institutes including the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB). The integration of several, optical and tactile probe systems and scanning force microscopes makes the NPM-Machine suitable for various tasks, such as large-area scanning probe microscopy, mask and water inspection, circuit testing as well as measuring optical and mechanical precision work pieces such as micro lens arrays, concave lenses, mm-step height standards.
