Exploring interlayer Dirac cone coupling in commensurately rotated few-layer graphene on SiC(000-1)

We investigate electronic band-structure images in reciprocal space of few layer graphene epitaxially grown on SiC(000-1). In addition to the observation of commensurate rotation angles of the graphene layers, the k-space images recorded near the Fermi edge highlight structures originating from diffraction of the Dirac cones due to the relative rotation of adjacent layers. The 21.9{\deg} and 27{\deg} rotation angles between two sheets of graphene are responsible for a periodic pattern that can be described with a superlattice unit cells. The superlattice generates replicas of Dirac cones with smaller wave vectors, due to a Brillouin zone folding.
