By depositing graphene on transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), it is possible to alter the electronic properties of graphene [1]. Here we focus on the fabrication of graphene on WSe₂ and NbSe₂, which was successfully performed by an adapted wet chemical transfer process. By means of low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy we investigate the atomic structure of graphene and observe different Moiré structures indicating a successful transfer of graphene onto the TMD. In an external magnetic field, Landau level sequences are observed giving access to the electronic properties of graphene, i.e. doping level, Fermi velocity etc. Detailed analysis of the obtained tunneling spectra shows that each Landau level is split into subpeaks, where the pronounced splitting strength grows with increasing magnetic field. The magnitude of the observed splitting indicates an enhanced spin-orbit interaction strength in graphene due to the presence of the TMD substrate.
