Abstract

In this, we report on the discovery of asymmetries of Raman scattering along one scanning direction, between two scanning directions, and by structure variation of the sample in space. Asymmetry of Raman shift along the x direction, and the asymmetry of Raman shift and linewidth between the two scanning directions (x and y) are found for a 1210 nm diameter silica particle. The observed asymmetries are confirmed by further 2D Raman scanning of the same particle. To further explore the asymmetry of Raman scattering, glass fibers of three diameters (0.53, 1.00, and 3.20 μm) are scanned along two directions. The asymmetry of Raman shift along each direction, the asymmetry of linewidth along the y direction, and the asymmetry of Raman shift and linewidth between the two scanning directions are discovered. Additionally, 11 nm-thick MoSe₂ nanosheets on silicon are used to discover whether an asymmetry of Raman scattering exists at the edge of the nanosheets. One edge of the nanosheet is scanned in four directions and the asymmetry of Raman scattering caused by the step variation is also detected. All the observed Raman scattering asymmetries are explained soundly by the Raman signal diffraction and image shift on the CCD detector arraysmore »« less

We propose a signal processing method by averaging the scanning points along four directions to eliminate the interference of the edge. This method works well to significantly suppress the asymmetries of Raman properties and uncover the real Raman signal change by structure variation.},

Interfacial Thermal Conductance between Mechanically Exfoliated Black Phosphorus and SiO_x : Effect of Thickness and Temperature

Journal Article Wang, Tianyu ; Wang, Ridong ; Yuan, Pengyu ; ... - Advanced Materials Interfaces

Black phosphorus (BP) is one of new 2D materials that have attracted wide attention. This work reports the interfacial thermal conductance between BP flake and SiO_x using Raman spectroscopy. From 293 K down to the 223 K, eight BP flakes in a thickness range of 16.6–113.7 nm are characterized. At 293 K, the largest interfacial thermal conductance is 1.14 × 10⁸ W m⁻² K⁻¹ for a 82.1 nm thick BP flake, and the smallest one is 2.17 × 10⁷ W m⁻² K⁻¹ for a 26.6 nm thick BP flake. Such large interfacial thermal conductance can be attributed to the excellentmore »« less

Interfacial thermal conductance between few to tens of layered-MoS₂ and c-Si: Effect of MoS₂ thickness

Journal Article Yuan, Pengyu ; Li, Chong ; Xu, Shen ; ... - Acta Materialia

We report a systematic investigation of interfacial thermal conductance (G_k) between few to tens -layered mechanical exfoliated molybdenum disulfide (MoS₂) and crystalline silicon (c-Si). Based on Raman spectroscopy, we find G_k at room temperature increases with increased layer numbers of MoS₂ from 0.974 MW m^-2 K^-1 to 68.6 MW m^-2 K^-1. The higher G_k of thicker samples reveals their better interface contact with the substrate, leading to accordingly improved interfacial energy coupling. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are conducted to interpret and compare with the experimental observations. MD simulations predict a thermal conductance in the range of 53–77 MW m^-2 K^-1,more »« less

Very fast hot carrier diffusion in unconstrained MoS ₂ on a glass substrate: discovered by picosecond ET-Raman

Journal Article Yuan, Pengyu ; Tan, Hong ; Wang, Ridong ; ... - RSC Advances

The currently reported optical-phonon-scattering-limited carrier mobility of MoS₂ is up to 417 cm² V^–1 s^–1 with two-side dielectric screening: one normal-κ side and one high-κ side. Herein, using picosecond energy transport state-resolved Raman (ET-Raman), we demonstrated very fast hot carrier diffusion in μm-scale (lateral) unconstrained MoS₂ (1.8–18 nm thick) on a glass substrate; this method enables only one-side normal-κ dielectric screening. The ET-Raman method directly probes the diffusion of the hot carrier and its contribution to phonon transfer without contact and additional sample preparation and provides unprecedented insight into the intrinsic D of MoS₂. The calculated D values span frommore »« less

Vibrational linewidths of adsorbed molecules by infrared emission spectroscopy

Technical Report Tobin, R G

Infrared emission spectroscopy is the only experimental technique capable of high resolution vibrational studies of adsorbates on well characterized single-crystal metal surfaces in the frequency range below 1000 cm . The present work reports the first measurement of the linewidth of the C-Pt stretching vibration of CO on Pt(111), and the first detailed investigation of any molecule-substrate vibrational mode. The linewidth has been studied at sample temperatures between 275 and 400K, and the variations are found to be significantly less than predicted by theories of lifetime broadening. Based on this fact, and the observed asymmetry of the line shape, itmore »« less
