Local strain engineering in atomically thin MoS2.
Controlling the bandstructure through local-strain engineering is an exciting avenue for tailoring optoelectronic properties of materials at the nanoscale. Atomically thin materials are particularly well-suited for this purpose because they can withstand extreme nonhomogeneous deformations before rupture. Here, we study the effect of large localized strain in the electronic bandstructure of ato...
متن کاملAtomically thin quantum light-emitting diodes
Transition metal dichalcogenides are optically active, layered materials promising for fast optoelectronics and on-chip photonics. We demonstrate electrically driven single-photon emission from localized sites in tungsten diselenide and tungsten disulphide. To achieve this, we fabricate a light-emitting diode structure comprising single-layer graphene, thin hexagonal boron nitride and transitio...
متن کاملThickness characterization of atomically-thin WSe2 on epitaxial graphene by low-energy electron reflectivity oscillations
In this work, low-energy electron microscopy is employed to probe structural as well as electronic information in few-layer WSe 2 on epitaxial graphene on SiC. The emergence of unoccupied states in the WSe 2 –graphene heterostructures are studied using spectroscopic low-energy electron reflectivity. Reflectivity minima corresponding to specific WSe 2 states that are localized between the monola...
متن کاملAtomically thin mica flakes and their application as ultrathin insulating substrates for graphene.
By mechanical exfoliation, it is possible to deposit atomically thin mica flakes down to single-monolayer thickness on SiO2/Si wafers. The optical contrast of these mica flakes on top of a SiO2/Si substrate depends on their thickness, the illumination wavelength, and the SiO2 substrate thickness, and can be quantitatively accounted for by a Fresnel-law-based model. The preparation of atomically...
متن کاملStrong light-matter interactions in heterostructures of atomically thin films.
The isolation of various two-dimensional (2D) materials, and the possibility to combine them in vertical stacks, has created a new paradigm in materials science: heterostructures based on 2D crystals. Such a concept has already proven fruitful for a number of electronic applications in the area of ultrathin and flexible devices. Here, we expand the range of such structures to photoactive ones b...
