The isolation of few-layered transition metal dichalcogenides has mainly been performed by mechanical and chemical exfoliation with very low yields. In this account, a controlled thermal reduction-sulfurization method is used to synthesize large-area (~1 cm(2)) WS2 sheets thicknesses ranging from monolayers few layers. During synthesis, WOx thin films are first deposited on Si/SiO2 substrates, which then sulfurized (under vacuum) at high temperatures (750-950 °C). An efficient route transfer...

It is a challenge to fabricate graphene bulk materials with properties arising from the nature of individual sheets, and which assemble into monolithic three-dimensional structures.

Although the main Raman features of semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides are well known for monolayer and bulk, there important differences exhibited by few layered systems which have not been fully addressed. WSe2 samples were synthesized ab-initio calculations carried out. We calculated phonon dispersions Raman-active modes in systems: WSe2, MoSe2, WS2 MoS2 ranging from monolayers to five-layers bulk. First, we confirmed that as number layers increase, E′, E″ E2g shift lower...

Resonant Raman spectroscopy (RRS) is a very useful tool to study physical properties of materials since it provides information about excitons and their coupling with phonons. We present in this work RRS samples WSe2 one, two, three layers (1L, 2L, 3L), as well bulk 2H-WSe2, using up 20 different laser lines covering the visible range.

Above-light-line surface plasmon polaritons can arise at the interface between a metal and epsilon-near-zero metamaterial. This unique feature induces unusual fast-wave non-radiative modes in material/metal bilayer. Excitation of this peculiar mode leads to wide-angle perfect absorption low-loss ultrathin metamaterials. The ratio wavelength thickness metamaterial be as high 10^4; electromagnetic energy confined layer thin {\lambda}/10000. Unlike conventional leaky modes, these have...

We show explicitly that the well-known Gouy phase shift of any focused beam originates from transverse spatial confinement, which, through uncertainty principle, introduces a spread in momenta and hence expectation value axial propagation constant. A general expression is given for terms values squares momenta. Our result also explains front Kirchhoff diffraction integral.
