Abstract
A stack includes a base portion consisting of silicon carbide and having a first surface that is a Si face and a carbon atom thin film disposed on the first surface and including a first main surface facing the first surface and a second main surface that is a main surface on an opposite side from the first main surface. The carbon atom thin film consists of carbon atoms. The carbon atom thin film includes at least one of a buffer layer that is a carbon atom layer including carbon atoms bonded to silicon atoms forming the Si face and a graphene layer. The second main surface includes a plurality of terraces parallel to the Si face of the silicon carbide forming the base portion and a plurality of steps connecting together the plurality of terraces.
