Molecular dynamics study of temperature-dependent ripples in monolayer and bilayer graphene on 6H-SiC surfaces

Using classical molecular dynamics and a simulated annealing technique, we show that microscopic corrugations occur in monolayer and bilayer graphene on 6H-SiC substrates. From an analysis of the atomic configurations, two types of microscopic corrugations are identified, namely periodic ripples at...
