Graphene on h-BN provides a highly mobile two-dimensional electron system (2DES) which can be characterized by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). In combination with transport experiments, a comparison of global and local properties of the sample is feasible. Such combination requires an ultra clean graphene surface and at least two electrical contacts. Therefore we present a dry and polymer free preparation technique by using a mica substrate. We exfoliate graphite on mica and subsequently pick up h-BN and graphene from a SiO2/Si chip one after another. Shadow mask evaporation of gold provides clean contacting. Omitting wet chemical methods and polymers enables ultra clean surfaces with low impurity concentration.
