The integration of graphene (G) with hexagonal boron nitride (BN) has been suggested as a way to engineer the graphene band structure and implement spin- and valleytronics in 2D materials. We report on a new method for producing atomically well-defined, zigzag oriented G-BN interfaces.

The paper is out in Scientific Reports
