Description
Isolated monolayer thickness WSe2 are grown onto c-cut (0001) sapphire substrates. This particular product contains monolayer thickness WSe2 triangular flakes randomly distributed across sapphire substrate. While some regions reach continuity with coalesced WSe2 triangles, this sample contains triangles for advanced spectroscopy, microscopy, and electronic measurements. The triangle sizes show sample to sample variation. Synthesized monolayer WSe2 triangles are highly luminescent and Raman spectroscopy studies also confirm the monolayer thickness.
Growth method: Our company synthesizes these monolayers using chemical vapor deposition (CVD) using highest purity (6N) gases and precursors in semiconductor grade facilities to produce crystalline and large domain size samples (1-50um). This is unlike commonly used MOCVD process wherein defects are very very large and domain sizes are small (10nm-500nm). Our samples are always highly luminescent and highly crystallized
