We report two new first-order Raman modes in the spectra of few-layer MoS$_2$ at 286~cm$^{-1}$ and 471~cm$^{-1}$ for excitation energies above 2.4~eV. These modes appear only in few-layer MoS$_2$; therefore their absence provides an easy and accurate method to identify single-layer MoS$_2$. We show that these modes are related to phonons that are not observed in the single layer due to their symmetry. Each of these phonons leads to several nearly degenerate phonons in few-layer samples. The nearly degenerate phonons in few-layer materials belong to two different symmetry representations, showing opposite behavior under inversion or horizontal reflection. As a result, Raman active phonons exist in few-layer materials that have nearly the same frequency as the symmetry forbidden phonon of the single layer. We provide here a general treatment of this effect for all few-layer two-dimensional crystal structures with an inversion center or a mirror plane parallel to the layers. We show that always nearly degenerate phonon modes of different symmetry must occur and, as a result, similar pseudo-activation effects can be excepted.
We study the second-order Raman process of mono- and few-layer MoTe$_2$, by combining {em ab initio} density functional perturbation calculations with experimental Raman spectroscopy using 532, 633 and 785 nm excitation lasers. The calculated electro
Phonon-phonon anharmonic effects have a strong influence on the phonon spectrum; most prominent manifestation of these effects are the softening (shift in frequency) and broadening (change in FWHM) of the phonon modes at finite temperature. Using Ram
We present a transient absorption setup combining broadband detection over the visible-UV range with high temporal resolution ($sim$20fs) which is ideally suited to trigger and detect vibrational coherences in different classes of materials. We gener
The Raman selection rules arise from the crystal symmetry and then determine the Raman activity and polarization of scattered phonon modes. However, these selection rules can be broken in resonant process due to the strong electron-phonon coupling ef
ReS$_2$ has recently emerged as a new member in the rapidly growing family of two-dimensional materials. Unlike MoS$_2$ or WSe$_2$, the optical and electrical properties of ReS$_2$ are not isotropic due to the reduced symmetry of the crystal. Here, w
