We report the quantitative adsorption structure of pristine graphene on Cu(111) determined using the normal incidence x-ray standing wave technique. The experiments constitute an important benchmark reference for the development of density functional theory approximations able to capture long-range dispersion interactions. Electronic structure calculations based on many-body dispersion-inclusive density functional theory are able to accurately predict the absolute measure and variation of adsorption height when the coexistence of multiple moiré superstructures is considered. This provides a structural model consistent with scanning probe microscopy results.
