We have carried out scanning tunneling spectroscopy measurements on exfoliated monolayer graphene on SiO$_2$ to probe the correlation between its electronic and structural properties. Maps of the local density of states are characterized by electron and hole puddles that arise due to long range intravalley scattering from intrinsic ripples in graphene and random charged impurities. At low energy, we observe short range intervalley scattering which we attribute to lattice defects. Our results demonstrate that the electronic properties of graphene are influenced by intrinsic ripples, defects and the underlying SiO$_2$ substrate.

We have used scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy to resolve the spatial variation of the density of states of twisted graphene layers on top of a highly oriented pyrolytic graphite substrate. Owing to the twist a moire pattern develops wit
h a periodicity that is substantially larger than the periodicity of a single layer graphene. The twisted graphene layer has electronic properties that are distinctly different from that of a single layer graphene due to the nonzero interlayer coupling. For small twist angles (about 1-3.5 degree) the integrated differential conductivity spectrum exhibits two well-defined Van Hove singularities. Spatial maps of the differential conductivity that are recorded at energies near the Fermi level exhibit a honeycomb structure that is comprised of two inequivalent hexagonal sub-lattices. For energies |E-E_F|>0.3 eV the hexagonal structure in the differential conductivity maps vanishes. We have performed tight-binding calculations of the twisted graphene system using the propagation method, in which a third graphene layer is added to mimic the substrate. This third layer lowers the symmetry and explains the development of the two hexagonal sub-lattices in the moire pattern. Our experimental results are in excellent agreement with the tight-binding calculations.
We have measured the impact of atomic hydrogen adsorption on the electronic transport properties of graphene sheets as a function of hydrogen coverage and initial, pre-hydrogenation field-effect mobility. Our results are compatible with hydrogen adso
rbates inducing intervalley mixing by exerting a short-range scattering potential. The saturation coverages for different devices are found to be proportional to their initial mobility, indicating that the number of native scatterers is proportional to the saturation coverage of hydrogen. By extrapolating this proportionality, we show that the field-effect mobility can reach $1.5 times 10^4$ cm$^2$/V sec in the absence of the hydrogen-adsorbing sites. This affinity to hydrogen is the signature of the most dominant type of native scatterers in graphene-based field-effect transistors on SiO$_2$.
Van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures synthesized through the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method allow creation and tuning of intriguing electronic and optical properties of two- dimensional (2D) materials, the knowledge of which is critical for a
wide range of potential applications. Here we report our scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy (STM/STS) study of as-grown MoS2 monolayer and WS2/MoS2 heterobilayer on SiO2. The heterobilayer appears smoother than the MoS2 monolayer, with root mean square (RMS) roughness of 0.230 +- 0.021 nm in the former and 0.329 +- 0.033 nm in the latter. For the first time, to our knowledge, we directly observed a continuous interface between the MoS2 monolayer and the top layer of the heterobilayer with atomic resolution. This finding contrasts to the previously reported open edges in the top layer of the heterobilayer. Our STS results and density functional theory (DFT) calculations revealed the band gaps of the heterobilayer and the MoS2 monolayer.
Circular polarization resolved magneto-infrared studies of multilayer epitaxial graphene (MEG) are performed using tunable quantum cascade lasers in high magnetic fields up to 17.5 T. Landau level (LL) transitions in the monolayer and bilayer graphen
e inclusions of MEG are resolved, and considerable electron-hole asymmetry is observed in the extracted electronic band structure. For monolayer graphene, a four-fold splitting of the $n=0$ to $n=1$ LL transition is evidenced and attributed to the lifting of the valley and spin degeneracy of the zeroth LL and the broken electron-hole symmetry. The magnetic field dependence of the splitting further reveals its possible mechanisms. The best fit to experimental data yields effective $g$-factors, $g^*_{VS}=6.7$ and $g^*_{ZS}=4.8$, for the valley and Zeeman splitting, respectively.
In a pristine monolayer graphene subjected to a constant electric field along the layer, the Bloch oscillation of an electron is studied in a simple and efficient way. By using the electronic dispersion relation, the formula of a semi-classical veloc
ity is derived analytically, and then many aspects of Bloch oscillation, such as its frequency, amplitude, as well as the direction of the oscillation, are investigated. It is interesting to find that the electric field affects the component of motion, which is non-collinear with electric field, and leads the particle to be accelerated or oscillated in another component.
