研究目的
To study temperature-dependent excitonic effects in monolayer WS2 grown by chemical vapour deposition on epitaxial graphene, in order to provide insight into their fundamental nature.
研究成果
The intrinsic excitonic properties of WS2 on epitaxial graphene were studied, revealing neutral and charged excitons (trions) across the temperature range with temperature-independent trion dissociation. The linear dependence of PL on excitation power confirms excitonic transitions and high crystal quality. Further studies are needed to clarify non-monotonic PL intensity behavior with temperature.
研究不足
The study is limited to temperatures from 83K to room temperature and does not include time-resolved PL or two-photon excitation spectroscopy to confirm dark state existence. Sample degradation in air over time may affect measurements, and the interaction with ambient conditions is not fully controlled.
1：Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study uses temperature-dependent photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy to probe excitonic species in WS2-graphene heterostructures. Theoretical models include the O'Donnell and Chen equation for band gap temperature dependence and Lorentzian fitting for PL peak deconvolution.
2：Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Monolayer WS2 was synthesized by chemical vapour deposition on epitaxial graphene substrates grown on SiC. Samples were characterized using scanning Kelvin probe microscopy (SKPM) and PL spectroscopy.
3：List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Equipment includes a THMS 600 heating/cooling stage, Renishaw inVia system for PL spectroscopy, Bruker Icon AFM for SKPM, and specific probes (PFQNE-AL). Materials include WO3 powder (Alfa Aesar), sulfur powder, epitaxial graphene on SiC substrates.
4：Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
WS2 was grown on graphene at 900°C with sulfur vapor transport. PL measurements were conducted from room temperature to 83K using a 532 nm laser. SKPM was performed in ambient conditions.
5：Data Analysis Methods:
PL spectra were analyzed using Lorentzian fitting to deconvolute exciton and trion peaks. Temperature dependence was fitted with the O'Donnell and Chen equation. Excitation power dependence was analyzed using a power-law model.
