Monoatomic metals intercalated between graphene/SiC interfaces represent a new type of van der Waals heterostructures with extraordinary properties. For instance, silver exhibits a metal-semiconductor transition in the monolayer limit (MLAg) [1, 2]. The low binding energy of the valence band maximum of MLAg, the intrinsic band gap of a bilayer graphene (BLGr) overlayer, and a twisted orientation of the Brillouin zone of silver and graphene overlayer make this heterostructure an interesting model system for the exploration of ultrafast interlayer charge transfer. In this contribution, we use time- and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (TRARPES) with a time resolution of 35 fs to study such types of processes in n-doped BLGr/MLAg/6H-SiC. Following the decay of the photoexcited carriers, we observe clear signatures of a net charge transfer between Ag and graphene on a 50 fs timescale. The detailed analysis of the data allows disentangling and identifying the relevant pathways.
