We demonstrate that it is possible to mechanically exfoliate graphene under ultra high vacuum conditions on the atomically well defined surface of single crystalline silicon. The flakes are several hundred nanometers in lateral size and their optical contrast is very faint in agreement with calculated data. Single layer graphene is investigated by Raman mapping. The G and 2D peaks are shifted and narrowed compared to undoped graphene. With spatially resolved Kelvin probe measurements we show that this is due to p-type doping with hole densities of n_h simeq 6x10^{12} cm^{-2}. The in vacuo preparation technique presented here should open up new possibilities to influence the properties of graphene by introducing adsorbates in a controlled way.

We employ room-temperature ultrahigh vacuum scanning tunneling microscopy (UHV STM) and {em ab-initio} calculations to study graphene flakes that were adsorbed onto the Si(111)$-$7$times$7 surface. The characteristic 7$times$7 reconstruction of this
We report an experimental refinement of the local charge density at the Si (111) 7x7 surface utilizing a combination of x-ray and high energy electron diffraction. By perturbing about a bond-centered pseudoatom model, we find experimentally that the
We report scanning tunneling microscopy observations of Ge deposited on the Si(111)-7x7 surface for a sequence of sub-monolayer coverages. We demonstrate that Ge atoms replace so-called Si adatoms. Initially, the replacements are random, but distinct
We propose a natural two-speed model for the phase dynamics of Si(111) 7$times$7 phase transition to high temperature unreconstructed phase. We formulate the phase dynamics by using phase-field method and adaptive mesh refinement. Our simulated resul
