Raman characterization of the patterned 2D materials on glass coverslips.
(a–c) Optical microscope images of patterned PtSe2, MoS2, and graphene samples. Raman scans were performed
on pristine, patterned, and cleared regions for each material. Scale
bars, 10 μm. (d–f) Averaged Raman spectra of pristine
(red), patterned (green), and cleared (blue) regions of PtSe2, MoS2, and graphene. The spectra of the patterned areas
show the expected modes with reduced intensity due to the material
ablation. The mode characteristics of each material show no significant
degradation of material quality for the patterned regions. The area
where the 2D material was fully removed only shows weak or no corresponding
Raman signal (blue line). In (d), (e), and (f), the spectra with low
intensity are presented with different scaling factors for better
visibility: 8× for patterned PtSe2, 80× for areas
cleared from PtSe2, 2× for patterned MoS2, 100× for areas cleared from MoS2, and 50×
for areas cleared from graphene.
