We present a route for direct growth of boron nitride via a polyborazylene to h-BN conversion process. This two-step growth process ultimately leads to a >25x reduction in the RMS surface roughness of h-BN films when compared to a high temperature growth on Al2O3(0001) and Si(111) substrates. Additionally, the stoichiometry is shown to be highly dependent on the initial polyborazylene deposition temperature. Importantly, CVD graphene transferred to direct-grown boron nitride films on Al2O3 at 400{deg}C results in a >1.5x and >2.5x improvement in mobility compared to CVD graphene transferred to Al2O3 and SiO2 substrates, respectively, which is attributed to the combined reduction of remote charged impurity scattering and surface roughness scattering. Simulation of mobility versus carrier concentration confirms the importance of limiting the introduction of charged impurities in the h-BN film and highlights the importance of these results in producing optimized h-BN substrates for high performance graphene and TMD devices.

Chemical vapor deposited (CVD) graphene is often presented as a scalable solution to graphene device fabrication, but to date such graphene has exhibited lower mobility than that produced by exfoliation. Using a boron nitride underlayer, we achieve m
obilities as high as 37,000 cm^2/Vs, an order of magnitude higher than commonly reported for CVD graphene and better than most exfoliated graphene. This result demonstrates that the barrier to scalable, high mobility CVD graphene is not the growth technique but rather the choice of a substrate that minimizes carrier scattering.
We analyze the optical, chemical, and electrical properties of chemical vapor deposition (CVD) grown hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) using the precursor ammonia-borane ($H_3N-BH_3$) as a function of $Ar/H_2$ background pressure ($P_{TOT}$). Films grow
n at $P_{TOT}$ less than 2.0 Torr are uniform in thickness, highly crystalline, and consist solely of h-BN. At larger $P_{TOT}$, with constant precursor flow, the growth rate increases, but the resulting h-BN is more amorphous, disordered, and $sp^3$ bonded. We attribute these changes in h-BN grown at high pressure to incomplete thermolysis of the $H_3N-BH_3$ precursor from a passivated Cu catalyst. A similar increase in h-BN growth rate and amorphization is observed even at low $P_{TOT}$ if the $H_3N-BH_3$ partial pressure is initially greater than the background pressure $P_{TOT}$ at the beginning of growth. h-BN growth using the $H_3N-BH_3$ precursor reproducibly can give large-area, crystalline h-BN thin films, provided that the total pressure is under 2.0 Torr and the precursor flux is well-controlled.
We report on the detection and charge distribution analysis for nitrogen substitutional dopants in single layer graphene membranes by aberration-corrected high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). Further, we show that the ionicity of
single-layer hexagonal boron nitride can be confirmed from direct images. For the first time, we demonstrate by a combination of HRTEM experiments and first-principles electronic structure calculations that adjustments to the atomic potentials due to chemical bonding can be discerned in HRTEM images. Our experiments open a way to discern electronic configurations in point defects or other non-periodic arrangements or nanoscale objects that can not be analyzed in an electron or x-ray diffraction experiment.
We investigate the adsorption of graphene sheets on h-BN substrates by means of first-principles calculations in the framework of adiabatic connection fluctuation-dissipation theory in the random phase approximation. We obtain adhesion energies for d
ifferent crystallographic stacking configurations and show that the interlayer bonding is due to long-range van der Waals forces. The interplay of elastic and adhesion energies is shown to lead to stacking disorder and moire structures. Band structure calculations reveal substrate induced mass terms in graphene which change their sign with the stacking configuration. The dispersion, absolute band gaps and the real space shape of the low energy electronic states in the moire structures are discussed. We find that the absolute band gaps in the moire structures are at least an order of magnitude smaller than the maximum local values of the mass term. Our results are in agreement with recent STM experiments.
Recently hybridized monolayers consisting of hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) phases inside graphene layer have been synthesized and shown to be an effective way of opening band gap in graphene monolayers [1]. In this letter, we report an ab initio den
sity functional theory (DFT)- based study of h-BN domain size effect on the elastic properties of graphene/boron nitride hybrid monolayers (h-BNC). We found both inplane stiffness and longitudinal sound velocity of h-BNC linearly decrease with h-BN concentration.
