Graphene on SiC is grown epitaxially by sublimation growth. The first carbon layer grown is still covalently bound to the Si atoms of the substrate and therefore electronically inactive. Intercalation of epitaxial graphene on SiC decouples the buffer layer from the SiC substrate making it electronically active. In addition, intercalation can manipulate the structural and electronic properties. Thereby graphene can be adjusted for device applications.
In our x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy studies we investigated the intercalation of antimony on epitaxial graphene on SiC(0001). Antimony was evaporated from a Knudsen cell by molecular beam epitaxy at the surface and subsequently annealed with in a temperature range of 400°C to 500°C. Antimony shows different behavior for intercalation in ultra-high vacuum and argon atmosphere.
