We investigate the growth mechanism of graphene on SiC substrate by Si sublimation by using first-principles molecular dynamics simulations. We found that 2D structures made on the surface have different shapes depending on the substrate surface structures. On (0001) terraces, 2D structures become relatively flat, while on (11-2n) facets, those have curves like a part of spherical structures.
