在当前的广泛的研究分层二维(2D ) 材料,与象 graphene, hBN,和瞬间 2, 那样的六角形的结构相比,低对称的 2D 材料在各向异性的设备为应用显示出大潜力。金来 diselenide (ReSe 2) 拥有体积空格组 \(P\bar 1 \) 并且与使变形的 cadmium-iodide-type 结构属于三斜晶系的水晶系统。这里,我们建议一个电子把单层 ReSe 2 膜与多层的 ReSe 2 和它的二不同垂直取向区分开来的基于衍射的方法。我们的方法对另外的低对称的水晶系统也适用,包括三斜晶系、单斜晶的格子,只要他们的第三单位房间基础向量不对基础飞机垂直。我们的试验性的结果被 kinematical 电子衍射理论和相应模拟很好解释。我们到另外的 2D 材料的方法的归纳例如 graphene,也被讨论。
In the current extensive studies of layered two-dimensional (2D) materials, compared to hexagonal structures such as graphene, hBN, and MoS2, low- symmetry 2D materials have shown great potential for applications in anisotropic devices. Rhenium diselenide (ReSe2) possesses the bulk space group P1 and belongs to the triclinic crystal system with a deformed cadmium-iodide-type structure. Here, we propose an electron diffraction-based method to distinguish the monolayer ReSe2 membrane from multilayer ReSe2 and its two different vertical orientations. Our method is also applicable to other low-symmetry crystal systems, including both triclinic and monoclinic lattices, as long as their third unit-cell basis vectors are not perpendicular to the basal plane. Our experimental results are well explained by kinematical electron diffraction theory and the corresponding simulations. Generalization of our method to other 2D materials, such as ~:raphene, is also discussed.
