Chemical modification, such as intercalation or doping of novel materials is of great importance for exploratory material science and applications in various fields of physics and chemistry. In the present work, we report the systematic intercalation of chemically exfoliated few-layer graphene with potassium while monitoring the sample resistance using microwave conductivity. We find that the conductivity of the samples increases by about an order of magnitude upon potassium exposure. The increased of number of charge carriers deduced from the ESR intensity also reflects this increment. The doped phases exhibit two asymmetric Dysonian lines in ESR, a usual sign of the presence of mobile charge carriers. The width of the broader component increases with the doping steps, however, the narrow components seem to have a constant line width.

The inter-Landau level transitions observed in far-infrared transmission experiments on few-layer graphene samples show a behaviour characteristic of the linear dispersion expected in graphene. This behaviour persists in relatively thick samples, and
is qualitatively different from that of thin samples of bulk graphite.
Two-dimensional (2D) antimony (Sb, antimonene) recently attracted interest due to its peculiar electronic properties and its suitability as anode material in next generation batteries. Sb however exhibits a large polymorphic/allotropic structural div
ersity, which is also influenced by the Sbs support. Thus understanding Sb heterostructure formation is key in 2D Sb integration. Particularly 2D Sb/graphene interfaces are of prime importance as contacts in electronics and electrodes in batteries. We thus study here few-layered 2D Sb/graphene heterostructures by atomic-resolution (scanning) transmission electron microscopy. We find the co-existence of two Sb morphologies: First is a 2D growth morphology of layered beta-Sb with beta-Sb(001)||graphene(001) texture. Second are one-dimensional (1D) Sb nanowires which can be matched to beta-Sb with beta-Sb[2-21] perpendicular to graphene(001) texture and are structurally also closely related to thermodynamically non-preferred cubic Sb(001)||graphene(001). Importantly, both Sb morphologies show rotational van-der-Waals epitaxy with the graphene support. Both Sb morphologies are well resilient against environmental bulk oxidation, although superficial Sb-oxide layer formation merits consideration, including formation of novel epitaxial Sb2O3(111)/beta-Sb(001) heterostructures. Exact Sb growth behavior is sensitive on employed processing and substrate properties including, notably, the nature of the support underneath the direct graphene support. This introduces the substrate underneath a direct 2D support as a key parameter in 2D Sb heterostructure formation. Our work provides insights into the rich phase and epitaxy landscape in 2D Sb and 2D Sb/graphene heterostructures.
The thermal conductivity of suspended few-layer hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) was measured using a micro-bridge device with built-in resistance thermometers. Based on the measured thermal resistance values of 11-12 atomic layer h-BN samples with sus
pended length ranging between 3 and 7.5 um, the room-temperature thermal conductivity of a 11-layer sample was found to be about 360 Wm-1K-1, approaching the basal plane value reported for bulk h-BN. The presence of a polymer residue layer on the sample surface was found to decrease the thermal conductivity of a 5-layer h-BN sample to be about 250 Wm-1K-1 at 300 K. Thermal conductivities for both the 5 layer and the 11 layer samples are suppressed at low temperatures, suggesting increasing scattering of low frequency phonons in thin h-BN samples by polymer residue.
Growing uniform oxides with various thickness on TMDs is one of the biggest challenges to integrate TMDs into complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) logic circuits. Here, we report a layer-by-layer oxidation of atomically thin MoTe2 flakes vi
a ozone (O3) exposure. The thickness of MoOx oxide film could be tuning with atomic-level accuracy simply by varying O3 exposure time. Additionally, MoOx-covered MoTe2 shows a hole-dominated transport behavior. Our findings point to a simple and effective strategy for growing homogenous surface oxide film on MoTe2, which is promising for several purposes in metal-oxide-semiconductor transistor, ranging from surface passivation to dielectric layers.
We report on the use of time-resolved optical ellipsometry to monitor the deposition of single atomic layers with subatomic sensitivity. Ruddlesden-Popper thin films of SrO(SrTiO3)n=4 were grown by means of metalorganic aerosol deposition in the atom
ic layer epitaxy mode on SrTiO3(100), LSAT(100) and DyScO3(110) substrates. The measured time dependences of ellipsometric angles, ${Delta}(t)$ and ${Psi}(t)$, were described by using a simple optical model, considering the sequence of atomic layers SrO and TiO2 with corresponding bulk refractive indices. As a result, valuable online information on the growth process, the film structure and defects were obtained. Ex situ characterization techniques, i.e. transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X- ray reflectometry (XRR) verify the crystal structure and confirm the predictions of optical ellipsometry.
