Two-dimensional (2D) compounds provide unique building blocks for novel layered devices and hybrid photonic structures. However, large surface-to-volume ratio in thin films enhances the significance of surface interactions and charging effects requiring new understanding. Here we use micro-photoluminescence (PL) and ultrasonic force microscopy to explore the influence of the dielectric environment on optical properties of a few monolayer MoS2 films. PL spectra for MoS2 films deposited on SiO2 substrates are found to vary widely. This film-to-film variation is suppressed by additional capping of MoS2 with SiO2 and SiN, improving mechanical coupling of MoS2 with surrounding dielectrics. We show that the observed PL non-uniformities are related to strong variation in the local electron charging of MoS2 films. In completely encapsulated films, negative charging is enhanced leading to uniform optical properties. Observed great sensitivity of optical characteristics of 2D films to surface interactions has important implications for optoelectronics applications of layered materials.

Monolayer molybdenum disulphide (MoS$_2$) is a promising two-dimensional (2D) material for nanoelectronic and optoelectronic applications. The large-area growth of MoS$_2$ has been demonstrated using chemical vapor deposition (CVD) in a wide range of
deposition temperatures from 600 {deg}C to 1000 {deg}C. However, a direct comparison of growth parameters and resulting material properties has not been made so far. Here, we present a systematic experimental and theoretical investigation of optical properties of monolayer MoS$_2$ grown at different temperatures. Micro-Raman and photoluminescence (PL) studies reveal observable inhomogeneities in optical properties of the as-grown single crystalline grains of MoS$_2$. Close examination of the Raman and PL features clearly indicate that growth-induced strain is the main source of distinct optical properties. We carry out density functional theory calculations to describe the interaction of growing MoS$_2$ layers with the growth substrate as the origin of strain. Our work explains the variation of band gap energies of CVD-grown monolayer MoS$_2$, extracted using PL spectroscopy, as a function of deposition temperature. The methodology has general applicability to model and predict the influence of growth conditions on strain in 2D materials.
Simple vacuum evaporation technique for deposition of dyes on various solid surfaces has been developed. The method is compatible with conventional solvent-free nanofabrication processing enabling fabrication of nanoscale optoelectronic devices. Thin
films of fluorescein were deposited on glass, fluorine-tin-oxide (FTO) coated glass with and without atomically layer deposited (ALD) nanocrystalline 20 nm thick anatase TiO2 coating. Surface topology, absorption and emission spectra of the films depends on their thickness and the material of supporting substrate. On a smooth glass surface the dye initially formes islands before merging into a uniform layer after 5 to 10 monolayers. On FTO covered glass the absorption spectra are similar to fluorescein solution in ethanol. Absorption spectra on ALD-TiO2 is red shifted compared to the film deposited on bare FTO. The corresponding emission spectra at {lambda} = 458 nm excitation show various thickness and substrate dependent features, while the emission of films deposited on TiO2 is quenched due to the effective electron transfer to the semiconductor conduction band.
Magnetite thin fims have been grown epitaxially on ZnO and MgO substrates using molecular beam epitaxy. The film quality was found to be strongly dependent on the oxygen partial pressure during growth. Structural, electronic, and magnetic properties
were analyzed utilizing Low Energy Electron Diffraction (LEED), HArd X-ray PhotoElectron Spectroscopy (HAXPES), Magneto Optical Kerr Effect (MOKE), and X-ray Magnetic Circular Dichroism (XMCD). Diffraction patterns show clear indication for growth in the (111) direction on ZnO. Vertical structure analysis by HAXPES depth profiling revealed uniform magnetite thin films on both type of substrates. Both, MOKE and XMCD measurements show in-plane easy magnetization with a reduced magnetic moment in case of the films on ZnO.
TbMnO$_{3}$ films have been grown under compressive strain on (001)-oriented SrTiO$_{3}$ crystals. They have an orthorhombic structure and display the (001) orientation. With increasing thickness, the structure evolves from a more symmetric (tetragon
al) to a less symmetric (bulk-like orthorhombic) structure, while keeping constant the in-plane compression thereby leaving the out-of-plane lattice spacing unchanged. The domain microstructure of the films is also revealed, showing an increasing number of orthorhombic domains as the thickness is decreased: we directly observe ferroelastic domains as narrow as 4nm. The high density of domain walls may explain the induced ferromagnetism observed in the films, while both the decreased anisotropy and the small size of the domains could account for the absence of a ferroelectric spin spiral phase.
The dielectric properties of NiO thin films grown by pulsed laser deposition have been studied as a function of strain at temperature from 10 to 300 K. Above 150 K, the contribution of space-charge polarization to the dielectric permittivity of NiO f
ilms becomes dominant and the more defective films, which were grown at low temperatures show a drastical increase in the dielectric constant up to room temperature. While the atomically-ordered film, which was grown at high temperature doesnt show any considerable change in the dielectric constant in the range from 10 to 300 K. Below 100 K, the effect of strain on the dielectric constant becomes clear. An increase in dielectric permittivity is observed in the strained films while the relaxed film doesnt show any remarkable deviation from its bulk value. The low-temperature dielectric behavior of NiO thin film can be interpreted based on the effect of strain on the lattice dynamics of rocksalt binary oxides.
