Layer-dependent electronic structure of an atomically heavy two-dimensional dichalcogenide
Abstract
Here we report angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopic measurements of the evolution of the thickness-dependent electronic band structure of the atomically heavy two-dimensional layered dichalcogenide, tungsten diselenide . Our data, taken on mechanically exfoliated single crystals, provide direct evidence for shifting of the valence-band maximum from (multilayer ) to (single-layer ). Further, our measurements also set a lower bound on the energy of the direct band gap and provide direct measurement of the hole effective mass.
