Rapidly counting atomic planes of ultra-thin MoSe2 nanosheets (1 ≤ n ≤ 4) on SiO2/Si substrate

The optical, thermal and electrical properties of ultra-thin two-dimensional (2D) crystal materials are highly related to their thickness. Therefore, identifying the atomic planes of few-layer crystal materials rapidly is crucial to fundamental study. Here, a simple technique was demonstrated based...

Description
Summary:The optical, thermal and electrical properties of ultra-thin two-dimensional (2D) crystal materials are highly related to their thickness. Therefore, identifying the atomic planes of few-layer crystal materials rapidly is crucial to fundamental study. Here, a simple technique was demonstrated based on optical contrast for counting atomic planes (n) of few-layer MoSe2 on SiO2/Si substrates. It is found that the optical contrast of single-layer MoSe2 depends on light wavelength and thickness of SiO2 on Si substrate. The data calculated based on a Fresnel law-based model as well as atomic force microscopy (AFM) mea- surements fit well with the values measured by spectro- scopic ellipsometer. Furthermore, the calculated and measured contrasts were integral and plotted, which can be used to determine the MoSe2 atomic planes (1 ≤ n ≤ 4) accurately and rapidly.
