Flat band and Lifshitz transition in long-range-ordered supergraphene obtained by Erbium intercalation
Résumé
We report the observation of graphene doped up to the Lifshitz transition obtained solely by the intercalation of Erbium atoms. ARPES measurements show that a wide flat band is generated around the M point of the Brillouin zone. We propose that this is the effect of an induced spin-orbit coupling. Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM) experiments reveal a longrange ordered hexagonal superstructure: we argue that this reflects the ordering of the intercalated Er atoms acting as impurities. This system provides a playground to study the interaction between a magnetic order and a divergent density of states at the Fermi level.
