Abstract

In this study, we investigate the electronic and atomic structure of graphene on O-terminated MgO(111) using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. To suggest a possible direction for future band gap engineering of graphene on MgO(111), adsorption of carbon atoms on graphene/MgO(111) is studied by considering the several adsorption sites. Details in adsorption properties of carbon atoms on graphene/MgO(111) are analyzed in terms of energy band structure.
