Popis:	Graphene on a dielectric substrate exhibits spatial doping inhomogeneities, forming electron-hole puddles. Understanding and controlling the latter is of crucial importance for unraveling many of graphene's fundamental properties at the Dirac point. Here we show the coexistence and correlation of charge puddles and topographic ripples in graphene decoupled from the metallic substrate it was grown on. The analysis of interferences of Dirac fermion-like electrons yields a linear dispersion relation, indicating that graphene on a metal can recover its intrinsic electronic properties. Comment: 4 figures
