The Interaction of Graphene with Different Substrates

Graphene's extraordinary electrical, optical, and mechanical properties render it one of the most promising materials for a variety of future technological applications. Therefore it is particularly important to study graphene's interaction with different substrates. This book contains an intensive introsuction into the topic of graphene research. Three different graphene growth methods on different substrates are studied extensively, using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES). The method is explained in detail in an extra chapter. The book is therefore of great help not only for those who are interested in graphene, but also for peolpe who are interested in ARPES.
