We are aiming at understanding the graphene formation mechanism on different SiC polytypes (6H, 4H and 3C) and orientations with the ultimate goal to fabricate large area graphene (up to 2 inch) with controlled number of monolayers and spatial uniformity. To reach the objectives we are using high-temperature atmospheric pressure sublimation process in an inductively heated furnace. The epitaxial graphene is characterized by ARPES, LEEM and Raman spectroscopy. Theoretical studies are employed to get better insight of graphene patterns and stability. Reproducible results of single layer graphene on the Si-face of 6H and 4H-SiC polytypes have been attained. It is demonstrated that thickness uniformity of graphene is very sensitive to the substrate miscut.

Large-area epitaxial graphene formed on C-face SiC has been investigated by Raman Spectroscopy and SEM (scanning electron microscopy). Local Raman spectra showed a large homogeneous area of high quality epitaxial FLG (few layer graphene) has been fabricated on C-face SiC. Our work reveals unexpectedly the shift in Raman peak position across the samples resulting from the inhomogeneity in the strains and impurities of the graphene films, which we exhibit to be correlated with physical topography by combining Raman spectroscopy with scanning electron microscopy (SEM)

Electrochemical functionalization of treated epitaxial graphene samples on Si-face 6H-SiC are presented in this work. Three semi-insulating 6H-SiC substrates cut from different boules with varying off cut angle (on axis, 0.5° and 1.0° degrees off axis in the [112‾0] direction) were diced into 10mm x 10mm samples and quality EG grown on top. A home-build electrochemical cell was used with current applied though a 10% H2SO4 solution, with a Pt wire and exposed graphene as the anode and cathode respectively. Functionalization was determined using Raman spectroscopy and measured by an increase in D/G ratio, increase in fluorescence background and introduction of C-H bond peak at ~2930 cm-1. Components of the Raman spectra before and after functionalization of all samples used were analyzed to show a substrate dependent effect on functionalization with values such as D/G ratio and normalized fluorescence slope varying between the substrates.

The phonon frequencies of epitaxial graphene on silicon carbide (SiC) depend on mechanical strain and charge transfer from the substrate to the epitaxial layer. Strain and doping depend on the preparation process and on the number of graphene layers. We measured the phonon frequencies by Raman spectroscopy and compare the results between epitaxial layers fabricated by high temperature annealing and by hydrogen intercalation of the covalently bound graphene layer of the 6 p 3 6 p 3 reconstructed SiC surface. Only the latter graphene layer shows tensile strain, which can partly be explained by lattice mismatch between substrate and epitaxial graphene.

Raman spectroscopy is commonly applied for studying the properties of epitaxial graphene on silicon carbide (SiC). In principle, the Raman intensity of a single graphene layer is rather low compared to the signal of SiC. In this work we follow an approach to improve the Raman intensity of epitaxial graphene on SiC by recording Raman spectra in a top-down geometry, i.e. a geometry in which the graphene layer is probed with the excitation through the SiC substrate [1]. This technique takes advantage of the fact, that most of the Raman scattered light of the graphene is emitted into the SiC substrate. We analyze in detail the top-down measurement geometry regarding the graphene and SiC Raman intensity, as well as the influence of aberration effects caused by the refraction at the air/SiC interface.
