Figure 7
LEEM images at different electron energies and I(V) curves of graphene prepared in situ in the microscope chamber by annealing SiC up to 1550 K (Merino et al., 2013). As can be seen, graphene regions of different thickness (namely single-, double- and triple-layer) have each a characteristic low-energy electron reflectivity curve. Regions with different graphene thickness can thus be distinguished in the LEEM images by their relative intensity. |
