Production and transfer of h-BN monolayers: Exploratory study — •Marco Thaler, Tobias Bonczyk, and Erminald Bertel — Physikalische Chemie, Universität Innsbruck, Österreich
Hexagonal Boron Nitride (h-BN) monolayers belong to the rapidly growing family of two-dimensional materials. h-BN is intensely studied, on the one hand as a template for graphene growth, on the other hand as a dielectric barrier in graphene-based electronic and spintronic devices. In electro-catalysis, h-BN can serve as support for active clusters, but is active also by itself1,2. Recently, h-BN monolayers were found to host defects acting as single-photon sources with excellent spectral properties3. In view of these diverse applications, an easy, clean, and reproducible procedure for h-BN synthesis and transfer is highly desirable. We present a simple, load-lock equipped UHV chamber allowing the preparation of Pt foils as recyclable templates and the deposition of h-BN monolayers. The morphology and cleanliness of Pt templates after various pretreatments is studied by AFM and XPS. h-BN deposition is monitored by XPS and different transfer protocols for the monolayers to metallic or dielectric substrates are evaluated.
