48. To determine the precise location of the onset of the NFE band from a LEER spectrum, the influence of the optical potential must be considered, as illustrated, e.g., in Fig. 2 of Ref.. Hence, for our graphene-on-Cu(001) spectra, such as curve E of Fig., the onset of the NFE band likely occurs a few tenths of an eV above 4.2 eV, thereby producing a value for the onset relative to the vacuum level that is >2.9 eV (and thus producing better agreement with the expected value of 7.9-4.61 = 3.29 eV).
