Part of the book series: Springer Series in Materials Science ((SSMATERIALS,volume 274))

Abstract

Atomically-thin two-dimensional (2D) materials display widely varying electronic and vibronic properties compared to their bulk counterparts. Laser interactions with 2D materials are central to their development. Here we attempt to overview recent progress and define the current challenges in the broad range of laser interactions involved in the synthesis, processing, and optical characterization of 2D materials as the field has emerged from graphene and h-BN to encompass a multitude of other atomically-thin semiconducting, superconducting, thermoelectric, etc. 2D materials as “building blocks ” for future energy applications and devices. Here, we first focus on challenges in the synthesis and processing of mainly semiconducting 2D layers for optoelectronics, and the advantages offered by non-equilibrium laser processing . Then, we review the optical characterization techniques that are being developed to serve as remote probes of their electronic and vibronic properties, as well as their structure, stacking , and atomistic alignment. Together, examples will be shown how these developments are already being merged to fulfill the promise for tailored synthesis and assembly of these exquisite materials with real-time in situ control of structure and optoelectronic properties .
