WS_2与WSe_2单层膜中的A激子及其自旋动力学特性研究

单层过渡金属硫化物由于其特有的激子效应以及强自旋-谷耦合性质,在光电子学及谷电子学等方面有着很广阔的应用前景.利用超快时间分辨光谱,本文系统地比较了两类钨基单层硫化物(WS_2和WSe_2)的A-激子动力学和谷自旋弛豫特性.实验结果表明, WS_2单层膜的A-激子弛豫表现为双指数过程,而对于WSe_2,其A-激子衰减表现为三指数过程,且激子的寿命远长于前者. WS_2谷自旋极化弛豫表现为单指数衰减,其寿命约0.35 ps,主要由电子-空穴交换作用所主导.而对于WSe_2,谷自旋弛豫表现出双指数弛豫特性:一个寿命为0.5 ps的快过程和一个寿命为28 ps的慢过程.快过程的弛豫来源于电子-空穴交换作用,而慢过程则由于自旋晶格散射形成暗激子的过程.通过调谐抽运光波长,进一步证实WSe_2较WS_2更容易形成暗激子.     

单层与双层WSe2纳米片层的光致发光

采用气相沉积法制备了WSe₂二维纳米材料,对其低温光致发光谱进行了研究。结果表明：随着WSe₂层数的增加,其光致发光强度单调下降;当WSe₂层数从单层增加为双层时,其发光强度急剧下降,表明其能带结构已从直接带隙转变为间接带隙。进一步研究了双层WSe₂的变温光致发光谱,发现随着温度的升高,双层WSe₂发光峰中A峰峰位的变化基本符合半导体带隙的温度变化规律,而I峰峰位红移与温度基本成线性关系,表明双层WSe₂同时存在间接和直接跃迁,且直接跃迁和间接跃迁特性不同。     

Au/Bi共掺二氧化硅薄膜的制备及近红外光谱调控

根据X射线光电子能谱分析和选择性光致发光谱测试结果,探讨了Bi离子掺杂非晶二氧化硅薄膜的近红外发光来源。我们认为非晶二氧化硅薄膜中Bi离子的近红外发光来源于低价态Bi~+离子从轨道~3P_1层到~3P_0层的辐射复合跃迁和Bi~0从轨道~2D_(3/2)层到~4S_(3/2)层的辐射复合跃迁。此外,本文利用限制性晶化原理,通过在掺Bi二氧化硅薄膜中引入Au离子,实现了Bi离子相关的近红外发光峰位可调,荧光强度增大了300%。高分辨透射电子显微镜截面图片证实了非晶二氧化硅薄膜厚度约为90 nm以及不同尺寸、数密度Au量子点的形成。变温光致发光谱测试结果表明,部分Au离子可有效降低Bi离子掺杂非晶二氧化硅薄膜中羟基集团等非辐射复合中心密度。Bi离子掺杂非晶二氧化硅薄膜近红外发光来源的探讨以及通过Au量子点调控Bi离子近红外发光性质的讨论将有助于未来掺Bi发光材料的相关研究。

采用机械剥离法在金刚石对顶砧中制备了单层WSe₂和MoSe₂样品,利用高压微区荧光光谱测量技术,在氩传压介质环境下对其激子发光行为进行了高压调控研究。其中单层WSe₂的中性和负电激子演化趋势在2.43 GPa处出现拐点,单层MoSe₂中性激子发光在3.7 GPa处发生了劈裂。结合第一性原理计算分析,确认该不连续现象的产生机制为压力诱导的导带底K-Λ交互转变。该结果可以扩大至整个二维层状材料体系,为发展激子器件垫定基础。     

基于磁圆二向色谱的单层MoS_2激子能量和线宽温度依赖特性

以二硫化钼(MoS_2)为代表的过渡金属硫属化物属于二维层状材料,样品可以薄至单层.单层MoS_2是一种直接带隙半导体,在纳米逻辑器件、高速光电探测、纳米激光等领域具有广阔的应用前景.在实际应用中,温度是影响半导体材料能带结构和性质的主要因素之一.因此研究单层二维材料能带的温度依赖特性对理解其物理机理以及开展器件应用具有重要的意义.目前,在广泛采用的测量单层MoS_2反射谱的研究中,激子峰往往叠加在一个很强的光谱背底上,难以准确分辨激子的峰位和线宽.基于自行搭建的显微磁圆二向色谱系统,研究了单层MoS_2在65—300 K温度范围内的反射谱和磁圆二向色谱,结果表明磁圆二向色谱在研究单层材料激子能量和线宽方面具有明显的优势.通过分析变温的磁圆二向色谱,得到了不同温度下的A,B激子的跃迁能量和线宽.通过对激子能量和线宽的温度依赖关系进行拟合,进一步讨论了声子散射对激子线宽的影响.     

CdSe infiltrated TiO2 based omnidirectional photonic crystals for visible light control

Control of light emission by engineering the electromagnetic vacuum is important in photonics for fundamental understanding as well as in applications. Omnidirectional photonic crystals such as logpile photonic crystals provide a very interesting system to study such phenomena. Here, we describe the first steps towards achieving systematic and reproducible control of light using titanium dioxide (TiO₂) logpile photonic crystals (PC) with incorporated cadmium chalcogenide (CdSe) quantum dots (QDs) (λ  600 nm) to potentially modify QD photoluminescence (PL). We present a technique for coating a monolayer of the QDs on the PC rods based on 3-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilanol linkage and measured the resulting PL response. Comparison of the PL spectra to a finite difference time domain model shows the need for further localization of QDs and fabrication of additional PC unit cells to observe PL modification.     

Effect of electrical contact on performance of WSe2 field effect transistors

Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) such as tungsten diselenide (WSe₂) have spead many interesting physical properties, which may become ideal candidates to develop new generation electronic and optoelectronic devices. In order to reveal essential features of 2D TMDCs, it is necessary to fabricate high-quality devices with reliable electrical contact. We systematically analyze the effect of graphene and metal contacts on performance of multi-layered WSe₂ field effect transistors (FETs). The temperature-dependent transport characteristics of both devices are tested. Only graphene-contacted WSe₂ FETs are observed with the metal-insulator transition phenomenon which mainly attributes to the ultra-clean contact interface and lowered contact barrier. Further characterization on contact barrier demonstrates that graphene contact enables lower contact barrier with WSe₂ than metal contact, since the Fermi level of graphene can be modulated by the gate bias to match the Fermi level of the channel material. We also analyze the carrier mobility of both devices under different temperatures, revealing that graphene contact can reduce the charge scattering of the device caused by ionized impurities and phonon vibrations in low and room temperature regions, respectively. This work is expected to provide reference for fabricating 2D material devices with decent performances.     

Enhanced photoluminescence of monolayer MoS2 on stepped gold structure

Different MoS₂/Au heterostructures can play an important role in tuning the photoluminescence (PL) and optoelectrical properties of monolayer MoS₂. Previous studies of PL of MoS₂/Au heterostructures were mainly limited to the PL enhancement by using different Au nanostructures and PL quenching of monolayer MoS₂ on flat Au surfaces. Here, we demonstrate the enhanced excitonic PL emissions of monolayer MoS₂/Au heterostructures on Si/SiO₂ substrates. By transferring the continuous monolayer MoS₂ onto a stepped Au structure consisting of 60-nm and 100-nm Au films, the MoS₂/Au-60 and MoS₂/Au-100 heterostructures exhibit enhanced PL emissions, each with a blue-shifted PL peak in comparison with the MoS₂/SiO₂. Furthermore, the PL intensity of MoS₂/Au-60 is about twice larger than that of MoS₂/Au-100. The different enhanced excitonic PL emissions in MoS₂/Au heterostructures can be attributed to the different charge transfer effects modified by the stepped Au structure. This work may provide an insight into the excitonic PL and charge transfer effect of MoS₂ on Au film and yield novel phenomena in MoS₂/Au heterostructures for further study of PL tuning and optoelectrical properties.     

Growth behaviors and emission properties of Co-deposited MAPbI3 ultrathin films on MoS2

Hybrid organic-inorganic perovskite thin films have attracted much attention in optoelectronic and information fields because of their intriguing properties. Due to quantum confinement effects, ultrathin films in nm scale usually show special properties. Here, we report on the growth of methylammonium lead iodide (MAPbI₃) ultrathin films via co-deposition of PbI₂ and CH₃NH₃I (MAI) on chemical-vapor-deposition-grown monolayer MoS₂ as well as the corresponding photoluminescence (PL) properties at different growing stages. Atomic force microscopy and scanning electron microscopy measurements reveal the MoS₂ tuned growth of MAPbI₃ in a Stranski-Krastanov mode. PL and Kelvin probe force microscopy results confirm that MAPbI₃/MoS₂ heterostructures have a type-II energy level alignment at the interface. Temperaturedependent PL measurements on layered MAPbI₃ (at the initial stage) and on MAPbI₃ crystals in averaged size of 500 nm (at the later stage) show rather different temperature dependence as well as the phase transitions from tetragonal to orthorhombic at 120 and 150 K, respectively. Our findings are useful in fabricating MAPbI₃/transition-metal dichalcogenide based innovative devices for wider optoelectronic applications.

光诱导功能退化是胶体量子点在应用中面临的主要挑战之一,本文针对这一问题研究了使用磁控溅射沉积SiO₂薄膜形成钝化层来提高CdSe/ZnS量子点发光稳定性的方法。首先,通过三正辛基膦辅助连续离子层吸附反应方法合成了615 nm发光的红色CdSe/ZnS量子点。然后将量子点旋涂在SiO₂/Si基片上,再通过磁控溅射方法在量子点上沉积了厚度为20 nm的SiO₂薄膜作为钝化层。使用连续波激光光源分别在空气气氛和真空条件下照射样品,研究了经过不同照射时间后钝化和未钝化量子点的稳态光致发光光谱。结果表明,随着照射时间的延长,没有SiO₂钝化的量子点的PL强度显著降低、PL峰值发生蓝移、FWHM不断增大。对比研究发现,由于SiO₂薄膜能够阻挡空气中的水和氧,减缓了量子点表面的光诱导氧化现象,因此显著提高了CdSe/ZnS量子点的稳定性。     

Giant enhancement of photoluminescence emission in monolayer WS2by femtosecond laser irradiation

Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides have emerged as promising mat erials for opt oelectTonic and nanophotonic devices.However,the low photoluminescence(PL)quantum yield(QY)hinders their various potential applications.Here we engineer and enhance the PL intensity of monolayer WS₂by femtosecond laser irradiation.More than two orders of magnitude enhancement of PL intensity as compared to the as-prepared sample is determined.Furthermore,the engineering time is shortened by three orders of magnitude as compared to the improvement of PL intensity by continuous-wave laser irradiation.Based on the evolution of PL spectra,we attribute the giant PL enhancement to the conversion from trion emission to exciton,as well as the improvement of the QY when exciton and trion are localized to the new-formed defects.We have created microstructures on the monolayer WS₂based on the enhancement of PL intensity,where the engineered structures can be stably stored for more than three years.This flexible approach with the feature of excellent long-term storage stability is promising for applications in information storage,display technology,and opto electronic devices.

Mechanical properties of lateral transition metal dichalcogenide heterostructures

Transition metal dichalcogenide(TMD)monolayers attract great attention due to their specific structural,electronic and mechanical properties.The formation of their lateral heterostructures allows a new degree of flexibility in engineering electronic and optoelectronic dervices.However,the mechanical properties of the lateral heterostructures are rarely investigated.In this study,a comparative investigation on the mechanical characteristics of 1H,IT'and 1H/1T'heterostructure phases of different TMD monolayers including molybdenum disulfide(M0S₂)molybdenum diselenide(MoSe₂),Tungsten disulfide(WS₂),and Tungsten diselenide(WSe₂)was conducted by means of density functional theory(DFT)calculations.Our results indicate that the impact of the lateral heterostructures has a relatively weak mechanical strength for all the TMD monolayers.The significant correlation bet ween the mechanical properties of the TMD monolayers and their structural phases can be used to tune their stiffness of the materials.Our findings,therefore,suggest a novel strategy to manipulate the mechanical characteristics of TMDs by engineering their structural phases for their practical applications.     

Tunable terahertz acoustic-phonon emission from monolayer molybdenum disulfide

The acoustic-phonon emission from monolayer molybdenum disulfide (ML-MoS₂) driven by a direct-current electric field is studied theoretically using the Boltzmann equation method. It is found that the Cerenkov emission of terahertz acoustic-phonons can be generated when a very weak electric field is applied to ML-MoS₂. The physical mechanisms of acoustic-phonon emission are analyzed from the perspective of condensed matter physics. The acoustic-phonon emission from ML-MoS₂ is also compared with those from graphene and GaAs. The results reveal that the frequencies of acoustic-phonons generated by ML-MoS₂ are between the frequencies of those generated from GaAs and graphene. The results of this work suggest that the ML-MoS₂ can make up for graphene and GaAs in respect of acoustic-phonon emission and be used in tunable hypersonic devices such as terahertz sound sources.

氢化二维过渡金属硫化物的稳定性和电子特性:第一性原理研究

用氢对单层二维过渡金属硫化物(TMDs)进行功能化是调节单层TMDs电子性质的既有效又经济的方法.采用密度泛函理论,对单层TMDs (MX_2 (M=Mo, W; X=S, Se, Te))的稳定性和电子性质进行理论研究,发现在单层MX_2 的层间有一个比其表面更稳定的氢吸附位点.当同阳离子时,随着阴离子原子序数的增加, H原子与MX_2 层的结合越强,氢化单层MX_2 结构越稳定;相反,同阴离子时,随着阳离子原子序数的增加, H原子与MX_2 层的结合越弱.氢原子从MoS_2的表面经层间穿越到另一表面的扩散势垒约为0.9 eV.氢化对单层MX_2 的电子特性也会产生极大的影响,主要表现在氢化实现了MX_2 体系从无磁性到磁性体系的过渡.表面氢化会使MX_2 层的带隙急剧减小,而层间氢化使MX_2 的电子结构从半导体转变为金属能带.

A field-effect WSe2/Si heterojunction diode

It is significant to develop a heterogeneous integration technology to promote the application of two-dimensional (2D) materials in silicon roadmap. In this paper, we reported a field-effect WSe₂/Si heterojunction diode based on ambipolar 2D WSe₂ and silicon on insulator (SOI). Our results indicate that the device exhibits a p-n diode behavior with a rectifying ratio of ～ 300 and an ideality factor of 1.37. As a photodetector, it has optoelectronic properties with a response time of 0.13 ms, responsivity of 0.045 A/W, detectivity of 4.5×10¹⁰ Jones and external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 8.9 %. Due to the ambipolar behavior of the WSe₂, the rectifying and optoelectronic properties of the heterojunction diode can be modulated by the gate electrical field, enabling various potential applications such as logic optoelectronic devices and neuromorphic optoelectronic devices for in-sensor computing circuits. Thanks to the process based on the mature SOI technique, our field-effect heterojunction diode should have obvious advantages in device isolation and integration.     

Photoemission oscillation in epitaxially grown van der Waals β-In2Se3/WS2 heterobilayer bubbles

Thin films of millimeter-scale continuous monolayer WS₂ have been grown on SiO₂/Si substrate, followed by the deposition of β-In₂Se₃ crystals on monolayer WS₂ to prepare In₂Se₃/WS₂ van de Waals heterostructures by a two-step chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method. After the growth of In₂Se₃ at elevated temperatures, high densities of In₂Se₃/WS₂ heterostructure bubbles with monolayer to multilayer β-In₂Se₃ crystals atop are observed. Fluorescence of the resultant β-In₂Se₃/WS₂ heterostructure is greatly enhanced in intensity upon the formation of bubbles, which are evidenced by the Newton's rings in optical image owing to constructive and destructive interference. In photoluminescence (PL) mapping images of monolayer β-In₂Se₃/monolayer WS₂ heterobilayer bubble, significant oscillatory behavior of emission intensity is demonstrated due to constructive and destructive interference. However, oscillatory behaviors of peak position are also observed and come from a local heating effect induced by an excitation laser beam. The oscillatory mechanism of PL is further verified by changing the exterior pressure of bubbles placed in a home-made vacuum chamber. In addition, redshifted in peak position and broadening in peak width are observed due to strain effect during decreasing the exterior pressure of bubbles.     

Gap plasmon-enhanced photoluminescence of monolayer MoS_2 in hybrid nanostructure

Monolayer transition-metal dichalcogenides(TMDs) have attracted a lot of attention for their applications in optics and optoelectronics.Molybdenum disulfide(MoS_2),as one of those important materials,has been widely investigated due to its direct band gap and photoluminescence(PL) in visible range.Owing to the fact that the monolayer MoS_2 suffers low light absorption and emission,surface plasmon polaritons(SPPs) are used to enhance both the excitation and emission efficiencies.Here,we demonstrate that the PL of MoS_2 sandwiched between 200-nm-diameter gold nanoparticle(Au NP) and 150-nm-thick gold film is improved by more than 4 times compared with bare MoS_2 sample.This study shows that gap plasmons can possess more optical and optoelectronic applications incorporating with many other emerging two-dimensional materials.
