WSe 2 homojunctions and quantum dots created by patterned hydrogenation of epitaxial graphene substrates

Abstract: Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) at 5 K is used to study WSe 2 layers grown on epitaxial graphene which is formed on Si-terminated SiC(0 0 0 1). Specifically, a partial hydrogenation process is applied to intercalate hydrogen at the SiC-graphene interface, yielding areas of quasi-free-standing bilayer graphene coexisting with bare monolayer graphene. We find that an abrupt and structurally perfect homojunction (band-edge offset ~0.25 eV) is formed when WSe 2 overgrows a lateral junction between adjacent mon… Show more

“…Red, blue and yellow spheres represent W, S and Co atoms, respectively. [35]. The optimized thickness and lattice constant of monolayer WS 2 are 4.47 Å and 3.19 Å, respectively; the length of W-S bond and the angle of S-W-S bond are measured to be 2.42 Å and 81 • , respectively, which are well consistent with previous work [36].…”

“…For monolayer WSe 2 (CZTS NPs), the band gap is evaluated to be 1.74 eV (1.5 eV) with an electron affinity of 3.53 eV (3.6 eV). , The valence band (VB) and the conduction band (CB) are displayed with dashed lines in Figure c. Based on these, the band structure of these materials before the junction and its corresponding band bending after creating the heterojunction are drawn in Figure d.…”

“…One can easily obtain the layer-engineered homojunctions by means of mechanical exfoliation or vapor-phase deposition as the products are usually composed of various regions with different thickness. The layer-engineered homojunctions may exhibit type-I or type-II band alignment [64][65][66][67][68] and thus demonstrate characteristics similar to the p-n junction, such as rectification behavior and photovoltaic effect.
