Recently, it has been revealed that the band structure of monolayer graphene exhibits a small band gap in the range of tenth of μeV that results from intrinsic spin orbit interaction. Such low energies can be probed in magnetotransport experiments at cryogenic temperatures, by employing a resistively detected microwave resonance method. In this work, graphene was combined with hexagonal boron nitride (hBN), i.e., a two-dimensional material which is a superior substrate for high-quality electronics as compared to silicon substrates. In these graphene/hBN heterostructures, we observed additional features in the microwave resonance spectrum, signalling additional interactions and phenomena. For further fundamental studies on the properties of two-dimensional van der Waals materials, it will be interesting to employ this method on e.g. bilayer graphene or transition metal dichalcogenide heterostructures with a controlled stacking order.
