Optical reflectance imaging is a simple and fast technique for characterizing 2D materials. It can reveal the interlayer coupling in stacked MoS2 and WS(2) bilayers through reflectance contrast. The determination of interlayer coupling requires optimization of illumination wavelength and SiO2 film thickness. This approach enables quick characterization of constructed 2D material systems.
Optical reflectance imaging is a popular technique for characterizing 2D materials, thanks to its simplicity and speed of data acquisition. The use of this method for studying interlayer phenomena in stacked 2D layers has, however, remained limited. Here we demonstrate that optical imaging can reveal the nature of interlayer coupling in stacked MoS2 andWS(2) bilayers through their observed reflectance contrast versus the substrate. Successful determination of interlayer coupling requires co-optimization of the illumination wavelength and the thickness of an underlying SiO2 film. Our observations are supported by multilayer optical calculations together with an analysis of the effect of any interlayer gap. This approach promises quick characterization of constructed 2D material systems.
