Realization of a free-standing graphene is always a demanding task. Here we use scanning probe microscopy and spectroscopy to study the crystallographic structure and electronic properties of the uniform free-standing graphene layers obtained by intercalation of oxygen monolayer in the strongly bonded graphene/Ru(0001) interface. Spectroscopic data show that such graphene layer is heavily p-doped with the Dirac point located at 552 meV above the Fermi level. Experimental data are understood within DFT and the observed effects are in good agreement with the theoretical data.
