研究目的
Investigating the controlled production of atomically thin nanowells in bilayer WS2 using an in situ heating holder combined with a focused electron beam in a scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM).
研究成果
The study demonstrates the precise fabrication of nanowells in bilayer WS2 with controlled spatial distributions and sizes, offering insights for the nanoengineering of nanowells in 2D TMDs. The mechanism of nanowell formation differs from that in monolayer films due to van der Waals interactions in the bilayer system.
研究不足
The study is limited by the precision of electron beam manipulation and the need for high temperatures to avoid carbon contamination, which may not be suitable for all applications.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study utilized an in situ heating holder combined with a focused electron beam in a STEM to produce atomically thin nanowells in bilayer WS2.
