abstract = {To take full advantage of twisted bilayers of graphene or
other two-dimensional materials, it is essential toprecisely
control the twist angle between the stacked layers, as this
parameter determines the properties of theheterostructure.
In this context, a growth routine using borazine as a
surfactant molecule on SiC(0001) surfaceshas been reported,
leading to the formation of high-quality epitaxial graphene
layers that are unconventionallyoriented, i.e., aligned with
the substrate lattice (G-R0◦ ) [Bocquet et al. Phys. Rev.
Lett. 125, 106102 (2020)].Since the G-R0◦ layer sits on a
buffer layer, also known as zeroth-layer graphene (ZLG),
which is rotated 30◦ withrespect to the SiC substrate and
still covalently bonded to it, decoupling the ZLG-R30◦
from the substrate canlead to high-quality twisted bilayer
graphene (tBLG). Here, we report the decoupling of
ZLG-R30◦ by increasingthe temperature during annealing in
a borazine atmosphere. While this converts ZLG-R30◦ to
G-R30◦ and thusproduces tBLG, the growth process at
elevated temperature is no longer self-limiting, so that the
surface iscovered by a patchwork of graphene multilayers of
different thicknesses. We find a $20\%$ coverage of tBLG
onZLG, while on the rest of the surface tBLG sits on one or
more additional graphene layers. In order to achievecomplete
coverage with tBLG only, alternative ways of decoupling the
ZLG, e.g., by intercalation with suitableatoms, may be
advantageous.},
