摘要
We have investigated the structure of hydrogen-intercalated quasifreestanding monolayer graphene (QFMLG) grown on 6H-SiC(0001) by employing total-reflection high-energy positron diffraction. At least nine diffraction spots of the zeroth-order Laue zone were resolved along (112¯0) and three along (11¯00), which are assigned to graphene, SiC, and higher-order spots from multiple diffraction on both lattices. We further performed a rocking curve analysis based on the full dynamical diffraction theory to precisely determine the spacing between QFMLG and the SiC substrate. Our study yields a spacing of dQFMLG=4.18(6)Å that is in excellent agreement with the results from density-functional theory calculations published previously. © 2023 American Physical Society.
