Description: 
In this study we examined the structural evolution of graphene grown on 8 off-axis 4H-SiC (0001) substrates at temperatures from 1600 C to 1700 C in Ar ambient. Morphological transformation of SiC substrate after annealing was examined by Tapping Mode Atomic Force Microscopy. Moreover, by etching-out graphene layers from graphitized SiC substrates in selective trenches we determined the number of graphene layers. Numbers of graphene layers were then independently confirmed by Transmission Electron Microscopy imaging.
