Abstract：
Graphene-metal and graphene-semiconductor interfaces are the most interesting graphene-based objects, which attracts much attention from both application and fundamental science points of view. In this talk I will present several representative examples on the growth and structural as well as electronic structure studies of graphene layers on different substrates: gr/ Ni(111), gr/Ru(0001), and gr/Ge(110). Our recent works [1-3] combine intensive experimental and theoretical approaches and lead to the complete understanding of these interfaces with the possibility to predict the wide spectrum of properties of the tailored graphene-metal and graphene- semiconductor interfaces. Our works and present talk present a link between huge amount of experimental and theoretical data allowing one to understand the influence of the metallic or/and semiconducting substrates on the electronic properties of a graphene overlayer and how its properties can be modified in a controllable way. The further directions of studies and applications of the graphene-metal and graphene-semiconductor interfaces will be discussed.
