Hyper-Rayleigh Scattering In 2d Redox Exfoliated Semi-Metallic Zrte2 Transition Metal Dichalcogenide
PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY CHEMICAL PHYSICS(2020)
摘要
Nonlinear optical characterization of nanostructured layered transition metal dichalcogenides (LTMDs) is of fundamental interest for basic knowledge and applied purposes. In particular, second-order optical nonlinearities are the basis for second harmonic generation as well as sum or difference frequency generation and have been studied in some 2D TMDs, especially in those with a semiconducting character. Here we report, for the first time, on the second-order nonlinearity of the semi-metallic ZrTe2 monolayer in acetonitrile suspension (concentration of 4.9 x 10(10) particles per cm(3)), synthesized via a modified redox exfoliation method and characterized using the Hyper-Rayleigh scattering technique in the nanosecond regime. The orientation-averaged first-hyperpolarizability was found to be beta(2 omega) = (7.0 +/- 0.3) x 10(-24) esu per ZrTe2 monolayer flake, the largest reported so far. Polarization-resolved measurements were performed in the monolayer suspension and indicate the dipolar origin of the generated incoherent second harmonic wave.
