The Lifshitz formulation is a quantum electrodynamic, first principals formulation used to determine van der Waals - London dispersion interactions in the continuum limit. It has many advantages over crude, pairwise potential models. Most notably, it can solve for complex interactions (e.g. repulsive and multi-body effects) and determine the vdW-Ld interaction magnitude and sign a priori from the optical properties rather than by parameterization. Single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) represent an ideal class of materials to study vdW-Ld interactions because very small changes in their geometrical construction, via the chirality vector [n,m], can result in vastly different electronic and optical properties. These chirality-dependent optical properties ultimately lead to experimentally exploitable vdW-Ld interactions, which already exist in the literature.Proper use of the Lifshitz formulation requires 1) An analytical extension for the geometry being studied 2) The optical properties of all materials present and 3) A method to incorporate spatially varying properties. This infrastructure needed to be developed to study the vdW-Ld interactions of SWCNTs systems because they were unavailable at the onset. The biggest shortfall was the lack of the E" optical properties out to 30+ eV.
(cont.) This was solved by using an ab initio method to obtain this data for 63 SWCNTs and a few MWCNTs. The results showed a clear chirality AND direction dependence that is unique to each [n,m]. Lifshitz and spectral mixing formulations were then derived and introduced respectively for obtaining accurate Hamaker coefficients and vdW-Ld total energies for these optically anisotropic SWCNTs at both the near and far-limits. With the infrastructure in place, it was now possible to study the trends and breakdowns over a large population as a function of SWCNT class and chirality. A thorough analysis of all these properties at all levels of abstraction yielded a new classification system specific to the vdW-Ld properties of SWCNTs. Additionally, the use of this data and an understanding of the qualitative trends makes it straightforward to design experiments that target, trap, and/or separate specific SWCNTs as a function of SWCNT class, radius, etc.

Повний текст джерелаThis thesis is at the interface between the study of nitride based compounds and the emerging structures formed by atomically thin bi-dimensional (2D) materials. This work consists in the study of the hybridization of the properties of large band gap materials from the nitride family and the mechanical, electronic and optical performances of layered materials, recently isolated at the monolayer level, highly considered due to their possible applications in electronics devices and fundamental research. In particular, a study of electronics and structural properties of stacked layered materials and 2D/3D interfaces have been realised with microscopic and spectroscopic means such as Raman, photoemission and absorption spectroscopy.This work is firstly focused on the structural and electronic properties of hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN), insulating layered material with exotic optical properties, essential in in the purpose of integrating these 2D materials with disclosed performances. Using graphene as an ideal substrate in order to enable the measure of insulating h-BN during photoemission experiments, a study of structural defects has been realized. Consequently, the first direct observation of multilayer h-BN band structure is presented in this manuscript. On the other hand, a different approach consisting on integrating bi-dimensional materials directly on functional bulk materials has been studied. This 2D/3D heterostructure composed of naturally N-doped molybdenum disulphide and intentionally P-doped gallium nitride using magnesium has been characterised. A charge transfer from GaN to MoS2 has been observed suggesting a fine-tuning of the electronic properties of such structure by the choice of materials.In this work present the full band alignment diagrams of the studied structure allowing a better understanding of these emerging systems

Повний текст джерелаIn this project, we have used micro-Raman and micro-photoluminescence spectroscopy to study two-dimensional materials (graphene and transition metal dichalcogenides) and van der Waals heterostructures. First, using electrochemically-gated graphene transistors, we show that Raman spectroscopy is an extremely sensitive tool for advanced characteri-zations of graphene samples. Then, we investigate the evolution of the physical properties of N-layer semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides, in particular molybdenum ditelluride (MoTe2) and molybdenum diselenide (MoSe2). In these layered structures, theDavydov splitting of zone-center optical phonons is observed and remarkably well described by a ‘textbook’ force constant model. We then describe an all-optical study of interlayer charge and energy transfer in van der Waals heterostructures made of graphene and MoSe2 monolayers. This work sheds light on the very rich photophysics of these atomically thin two-dimensional materials and on their potential in view of optoelectronic applications

Повний текст джерелаThe extraordinary intrinsic properties of low dimensional materials depend highly on the environment they are subjected to. Hence they need to be prepared, processed and characterized without defects. In this thesis, I discuss about how to control the environment of low dimensional nanomaterials such as graphene, MoS2 and carbon nanotubes to preserve their intrinsic physical properties. Novel solutions for property enhancements are discussed in depth. In the first part, we fabricate state-of-the-art, edge-contacted, graphene Van der Waals(VdW) heterostructuredevices encapsulated in hexagonal-boron nitride(hBN), to obtain ballistic transport. We use a technique based on 1/f-noise measurements to probe bulk and edge transport during integer and fractional Quantum Hall regimes. In the second part, the same fabrication concept of VdW heterostructures has been extended to encapsulate monolayer MoS2 in hBN to improve optical properties. In this regard we present an extensive study about the origin and characterization of intrinsic and extrinsic defects and their affect on optical properties. Further, we describe a technique to probe the interlayer coupling along with the generation of light with spatialresolution below the diffraction limit of light. Finally, we discuss a natural systemic process to enhance the mechanical properties of natural polymer silk using HipCO-made single walled carbon nanotubes as a food for silkworm

Повний текст джерелаIn questa tesi è presentata un'indagine computazionale basata sulla Teoria del Funzionale Densità (DFT), eseguita su un ampio range di sistemi che spazia da molecole a polimeri cristallini, grafite, fasi auto-organizzate di molecole organiche su supporti metallici e piccole molecole assorbite in materiali porosi a base organica-inorganica. Combinando le informazioni ottenute per mezzo di metodi computazionali con i risultati sperimentali, prevalentemente di microscopia a scansione ad effetto tunnel, è stato possibile descrivere il comportamento elettronico e strutturale di tali sistemi e raggiungere una compresione dettagliata del loro comportamento chimico-fisico. Grazie all'implementazione di uno schema correttivo per l'inclusione delle forze di dispersione nella DFT, sono stati effettuati calcoli accurati su sistemi altrimenti inaccessibili, pur contendo lo sforzo computazionale. Questo ha permesso, ad esempio, di capire il ruolo giocato dal ricoprimento della superficie nella transizione di fase osservata per le ftalocianine di ferro depositate su Ag(110) e di modellare con successo l'assorbimento di H20 in un polimero di Cu(II) bispirazolato.

Повний текст джерелаDuring this thesis, we have fabricated and studied by optical spectroscopy, van der Waals heterostructures composed of semiconductor monolayers (transition metal dichalcogenides, TMD) coupled to a graphene monolayer or to a plasmonic resonator. We have observed significant changes in the dynamics of the TMD optically excited states (excitons) when it is in direct contact with graphene. Graphene neutralizes the TMD monolayer and enables non-radiative transfer of excitons within less than a few picoseconds. This energy transfer process may be accompanied by a considerably less efficient, extrinsic photodoping. The reduced lifetime of TMD excitons in the presence of graphene has been exploited to show that their valley pseudo-spin maintains a high degree of polarization and coherence up to room temperature. Finally, by strongly coupling TMD excitons to the modes of a geometric phase plasmonic resonator, we have demonstrated, at room temperature, that the momentum of the resulting chiral polaritons (chiralitons) is locked to their valley pseudo-spin

Повний текст джерелаThis thesis investigates the charge and spin transport processes in 0D, 2D nanostructures and 2D-0D Van der Waals heterostructures (VdWh). The La0.67Sr0.33MnO3 perovskite nanocrystals reveal exceptional magnetoresistances (MR) at low temperature driven by their paramagnetic shell magnetization independently of their ferromagnetic core. A detailed study of MoSe2 field effect transistors enables to elucidate a complete map of the charge injection mechanisms at the metal/MoSe2 interface. An alternative approach is reported for fabricating 2D-0D VdWh suitable for single electron electronics involving the growth of self-assembled Al nanoclusters over the graphene and MoS2 surfaces. The transparency the 2D materials to the vertical electric field enables efficient modulation of the electric state of the supported Al clusters resulting to single electron logic functionalities. The devices consisting of graphene exhibit MR attributed to the magneto-Coulomb effect

Повний текст джерелаThe isolation of graphene, a single stable layer of graphite, composed by a plane of carbon atoms, demonstrated the possibility to separate a single layer of atomic thickness, called bidimensional (2D) material, from the van der Waals (vdW) solids. Thanks to their stability, 2D materials can be used to form vdW heterostructures, a vertical stack of different 2D crystals maintained together by the vdW forces. In principle, due to the weakness of the vdW interaction, each layer keeps its own global electronic properties. Using a theoretical and computational approach based on the Density Functional Theory (DFT) and Keldish-Green formalism, we have studied graphene/MoS₂ heterostructure. In this work, we are interested in the specific electronic properties of graphene and MoS₂ for the conception of field effect transistor: the high mobility of graphene as a basis for high performance transistor and the gap of MoS₂ able to switch the device. First, the graphene/MoS₂ interface is electronically characterized by analyzing the effects of different orientations between the layers on the electronic properties. We demonstrated that the global electronic properties as bandstructure and Density of State (DOS) are not affected by the orientation, whereas, by mean of Scanning Tunneling Microscope (STM) images, we found that different orientations leads to different local DOS. In the second part, graphene/MoS₂ is used as a very simple and efficient model for Field Effect Transistor. The role of the vdW heterostructure in the transistor operation is analyzed by stacking additional and alternate graphene and MoS₂ layers on the simple graphene/MoS₂ interface. We demonstrated that the shape of the DOS at the gap band edge is the fundamental parameter in the switch velocity of the transistor, whereas the additional layers do not improve the transistor behavior, because of the independence of the interfaces in the vdW heterostructures. However, this demonstrates the possibility to study, in the framework of DFT, the transport properties of more complex vdW heterostructures, separating the single interfaces and reducing drastically the calculation time. The 2D materials are also studied in the role of a tip for STM and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). A graphene-like tip, tested on defected MoS₂, is compared with a standard copper tip, and it is found to provide atomic resolution in STM images. In addition, due to vdW interaction with the sample, this tip avoids the contact effect responsible for the transfer of atoms between the tip and the sample. Furthermore, the analysis of defects can be very useful since they induce new peaks in the gap of MoS₂: hence, they can be used to get a peak of current representing an interesting perspective to improve the transistor operation

Повний текст джерелаTwo-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) are promising materials for a variety of applications, especially in optoelectronics. However, the lack of understanding of their epitaxy - i.e. growth mechanism, microscopic structure, nature of the 2D layer-substrate interaction, etc. - is still a crucial issue to address. In this PhD thesis we explored a series of epitaxial growths of monolayer and thin film TMDCs grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) on a variety of substrates. We studied their atomic structures and we attempted the modifications of some of them with various in situ methods. Several systems and processes have been investigated: (i) transition metal ditellurides, ZrTe2 , MoTe2 and TiTe2 on InAs(111) substrate, (ii) the intercalation of alkali metal species between single layer MoS2 and its Au(111) substrate, (iii) the growth and the thermal treatments in H2S atmosphere of monolayer PtSe2 on Pt(111). Our work relies on both phenomenological and quantitative methods based on surface X-ray diffraction, often complemented by parallel analysis performed with other probes, e.g. STM, TEM, XPS, ARPES. Most notably, we found that: (i) a metastable orthorhombic phase and a charge density wave phase can be stabilized at room temperature in MoTe2 and TiTe2 owing to the epitaxial strain in the materials; (ii) the intercalation of Cs atoms under MoS2 induces structural and electronic decoupling of the 2D MoS2 layer from its Au(111) substrate; (iii) the sulfurization of PtSe2 promotes the Se-by-S substitution in one (or both) of its two chalcogen layers, leading either to the full conversion of the selenide into a sulfide or even to an ordered Janus alloy

Повний текст джерелаThis doctoral dissertation focuses on the application of Van-der-Waals’ forces in micromaterial handling. A micro-material handling system consists of four main elements, which include: the micro-gripper, the micro-workpart, the picking up position and the placement position. The scientific theoretical frameworks of Van-der-Waals’ forces, presented by Van der Waals, Hamaker, London, Lifshitz, Israelachvilli, Parsegian, Rumpf and Rabinovich, are employed in exploring the extent to which these forces could be applied in a micromanufacturing situation. Engineering theoretical frameworks presented by Fearing, Bohringer, Sitti, Feddema, Arai and Fukuda, are employed in order to provide an in-depth synthesis of the application of Van-der-Waals’ forces in micro-material handling. An empirical or pragmatic methodology was adopted in the research. The Electron Beam Evaporation (e-beam) method was used in generating interactive surfaces of uniform surface roughness values. E-beam depositions of copper, aluminum and silver on silicon substrates were developed. The deposition rates were in the range of 0.6 – 1.2 Angstrom/s, at an average vacuum pressure of 2 x 10-6 mbar. The topographies were analysed and characterised using an Atomic Force Microscope and the corresponding rms surface roughness values were obtained. The Rumpf-Rabinovich equation, which gives the relationship of the exerted Van-der-Waals’ forces and the rms surface roughness values, is used to numerically model the results. In the final synthesis it is observed that the e-beam depositions of copper are generally suited for the pick-up position. Aluminum is suited for the micro-gripper and silver is suited for the placement position in an optimised micro-material handling system. Another Atomic Force Microscope was used in order to validate the numerically modelled results of the exerted Van- der-Waals’ forces. The aim was to measure the magnitude of Vander- Waals’ forces exerted by the e-beam depositions and to evaluate their applicability in micro-material handling operations. The measurements proved that Van-der-Waals’ forces exerted by the samples could be used for micro-material handling purposes on condition that they exceeded the weight of the micro-part being handled. Three fundamental parameters, ie: material type, geometrical configuration and surface topography were used to develop strategies of manipulation of micro-materials by Van-der- Waals’ forces. The first strategy was based on the material type variation of the interactive surfaces in a micro-material handling operation. This strategy hinged on the fact that materials have different Hamaker coefficients, which resulted in them experiencing a specific Van-der- Waals’ forces’ intensity during handling. The second strategy utilised variation in the geometrical configuration of the interacting surfaces. The guiding principle in this case was that, the larger the contact area was, the greater the exerted Van-der-Waals’ forces would be In the analytical modelling of Van-der-Waals’ forces with reference to geometrical configuration, a flat surface was found to exert more force than other configurations. The application of the design, for purposes of manufacturing and assembling (DFMA) criteria, also proved that flat interactive surfaces have high design efficiency. The third strategy was based on surface roughness. The rougher the topography of a given surface was, the lesser the Van-der-Waals’ forces exerted were. It was synthesised that in order for a pick-transfer-place cycle to be realised, the root-mean-square (rms) interactive surface roughness values of the micro-part (including the picking position, the micro-gripper, and the placement position) should decrease successively. Hybrid strategies were also identified in this research in order to deal with some complex cases. The hybrids combined at least two of the aforementioned strategies.

The problems include the creation of a dust-free environment, accurate measurement of the micro-force, and the efficient picking and placing of micro-work pieces. The use of vacuum suction, micro-gripper's surface roughness, geometrical configuration and material type are presented as alternatives to overcome the challenges. An atomic force microscope is proposed for the accurate measurement of the Van der Waals force between the gripper and the micro-work piece.

Повний текст джерелаThis paper explores the manipulation of Van der Waals' forces by geometrical parameters in a micro-material handling system. It was observed that the flat-flat interactive surfaces exerted the highest intensity of Van der Waals' forces followed by cone-flat, cylinder-flat, sphere-flat and sphere-sphere interactive surfaces, respectively. A conical micro-gripper proved to be versatile in manipulating the Van der Waals' forces efficiently in a 'picking up' and 'releasing' mechanism of micro-work parts. It was deduced that the pick-up position should be rough and spherical, and the placement position should be smooth and flat for an effective 'pick-and-place' cycle to be realised.
