Optical absorption in hexagonal-diamond Si and Ge nanowires: insights from STEM-EELS experiments and ab initio theory
Luiz H. G. Tizei, Michele Re Fiorentin, Thomas Dursap +6
Hexagonal-diamond (2H) group IV nanowires are key for advancing group IV-based lasers, quantum electronics, and photonics. Understanding their dielectric response is crucial for pe…
Roadmap for Quantum Nanophotonics with Free Electrons
F. Javier García de Abajo, Albert Polman, Cruz I. Velasco +44
Over the past century, continuous advancements in electron microscopy have enabled the synthesis, control, and characterization of high-quality free-electron beams. These probes ca…
Engineering 2D material exciton lineshape with graphene/h-BN encapsulation
Steffi Y. Woo, Fuhui Shao, Ashish Arora +20
Control over the optical properties of atomically thin two-dimensional (2D) layers, including those of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), is needed for future optoelectronic…
eV electron spectromicroscopy using free-space light
Yves Auad, Eduardo J. C. Dias, Marcel Tencé +7
The synergy between free electrons and light has recently been leveraged to reach an impressive degree of simultaneous spatial and spectral resolution, enabling applications in mic…
Excitonic Absorption Signatures of Twisted Bilayer WSe by Electron Energy-Loss Spectroscopy
Steffi Y. Woo, Alberto Zobelli, Robert Schneider +7
Moiré twist angle underpins the interlayer interaction of excitons in twisted van der Waals hetero- and homo-structures. The influence of twist angle on the excitonic absorption of…
Substrate influence on transition metal dichalcogenide monolayer exciton absorption linewidth broadening
Fuhui Shao, Steffi Y. Woo, Nianjheng Wu +13
The excitonic states of transition metal dichacolgenide (TMD) monolayers are heavily influenced by their external dielectric environment based on the substrate used. In this work,…
