The ability to controllably layer atomically thin crystals into custom-made materials holds promise for realizing physical systems with distinct properties, previously inaccessible. The experimental results described in this talk seek to uncover the unique nature of the charge carriers in such few-atoms-thick materials as well as effects that interlayer coupling and disorder have on their properties. To that end we use scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and spectroscopy (STS) experiments performed on graphene systems at low temperatures and in magnetic field. We study Landau quantization in graphene and by performing spatially resolved STM/STS we demonstrate the true discrete quantum mechanical electronic spectrum within the Landau level band near charged impurities in graphene in the quantum Hall regime.
