▎ 摘　　要

In this letter, we report an easy and tenable way to tune the type of charge carriers in graphene, using a buried layer of AlBr3 and its derivatives on the graphene/Ir(111) interface. Upon the deposition of AlBr3 on graphene/Ir(111) and subsequent temperature-assisted intercalation of graphene/Ir(111) with atomic Br and AlBr3, pronounced hole doping of graphene is observed. The evolution of the graphene/Br-AlBr3/Ir(111) system at different stages of intercalation has been investigated by means of microbeam low-energy electron microscopy/electron diffraction, core-level photoelectron spectroscopy, and angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy.
