Extraordinary Second Harmonic Generation in ReS2 Atomic Crystals

Abstract: We report the observations of unexpected layer-dependent, strong, and anisotropic second harmonic generations (SHGs) in atomically thin ReS 2 . Appreciable (negligible ) SHGs are obtained from even (odd) numbers of ReS 2 layers, which is opposite to the layer-dependence of SHGs in group VI transition metal dichalcogenides, such as MoS 2 and WS 2 . The results are analyzed from ReS 2 's crystal structure, implying second harmonic polarizations generated from the interlayer coupling. Pumped by a telecomband lase… Show more

“…In Table S4, we summarized all the previously reported results and identified the stacking order for most samples based on available information. A third example is the SHG spectra, as reported by Song et al where SHG signals of ReS 2 can only be observed in even number layers, [ 26 ] while Dhakal et al showed that the SHG signal increases with thickness of ReS 2 starting from monolayer, regardless of the number of layers. [ 27 ] These discrepancies can be explained with ease if the factor of stacking order is considered.…”

“…[ 31,32 ] Similar inconsistencies also exist in the determination of indirect‐direct bandgap transition, [ 24 ] Raman vibrational modes and second harmonic generation (SHG) spectra. [ 26–30,34 ] These results suggest that some other intrinsic parameter that governs the electronic and optical properties of multilayer ReS 2 , such as stacking order, is not well understood. Even though some Raman studies indicated the existence of different stacking orders, [ 28–30 ] possible stacking order in ReS 2 has not been identified.…”

“…While in 1T' phase form, the trend of layer dependent SHG is opposite to that in 2H phase. In other words, even layers of 1T' crystal with inversion symmetry breaking display significant SHG while odd layers with inversion symmetry show negligible SHG [35]. Therefore, the stacking sequence of 2D materials plays a very important role in determining the preservation or breaking the inversion symmetry in atomically thin crystals and corresponding SHG intensity.…”

“…The BFO‐HNPs showed excellent long‐term photostability when imaged in vivo, because of their nonlinear parametric interaction with the excitation field, implying no light absorption by the NPs. Similar approaches based on SHG generation could also be tested with other nanoprobes such as metal NPs and 2D transition metal dichalcogenides . Such a property is essential to perform tracking over days or weeks and represents a powerful tool for tracing macrophages in the entire lung as well as providing information on the fate of inhaled NPs.…”
