Two-dimensional heterostructures have attracted widespread attention due to their potential applications in optoelectronic devices and novel physical effects beyond conventional bulk electronics. However, the optical properties of 2D lateral heterojunctions have not been fully characterized due to limitations in spatial resolution, requiring nano-optical techniques. In this study, we used subdiffraction limited tip-enhanced photoluminescence (TEPL) spectroscopy with sub-nanometer tip-sample distance control to investigate lateral monolayer WS2-MoS2 heterostructures. We observed significant photoluminescence enhancement by placing a plasmonic Au-coated tip at the resonantly excited heterojunction.
Two-dimensional heterostructures have recently gained broad interest due to potential applications in optoelectronic devices. Their reduced dimensionality leads to novel physical effects beyond conventional bulk electronics. However, the optical properties of the 2D lateral heterojunctions have not been completely characterized due to the limited spatial resolution, requiring nano-optical techniques beyond the diffraction limit. Here, we investigate lateral monolayer WS2-MoS2 heterostructures in a plasmonic Au-Au tip-substrate picocavity using subdiffraction limited tip-enhanced photoluminescence (TEPL) spectroscopy with sub-nanometer tip-sample distance control. We observed more than 3 orders of magnitude PL enhancement by placing a plasmonic Au-coated tip at the resonantly excited heterojunction. We developed a theoretical model of the quantum plasmonic 2D heterojunction, where tunneling of hot electrons between the Au tip and MoS2 leads to the quenching of the MoS2 PL, while simultaneously increasing the WS2 PL, in contrast to the non-resonant reverse transfer. Our simulations show good agreement with the experiments, revealing a range of parameters and enhancement factors corresponding to the switching between the classical and quantum regimes. The controllable photoresponse of the 2D heterojunction can be used in novel nanodevices.
