One-Step Growth of Bilayer 2H-1T?MoTe2 van der Waals Heterostructures with Interlayer-Coupled Resonant Phonon Vibration

2H???1T??? MoTe2 van der Waals heterostructures (vdWHs) have promising applications in optoelectronics due to a seamlessly homogeneous semiconductor???metal coupled interface. However, the existing methods to fabricate such vdWHs involved complicated steps that may deteriorate the interfacial coupling and are also lacking precise thickness control capability. Here, a one-step growth method was developed to controllably grow bilayer 2H???1T??? MoTe2 vdWHs in the small growth window overlapped for both phases. Atomic-resolution low-voltage transmission electron micros-copy shows the distinct moire?? patterns in the bilayer vdWHs, revealing the epitaxial nature of the top 2H phase with the lattice parameters regulated by the underneath 1T??? phase. Such epitaxially stacked bilayer vdWHs modulate the interlayer coupling by resonating their vibration modes, as unveiled by the angle-resolved polarized Raman spectroscopy and first-principles calculations.
