Making Effective Light Absorbers From 2D Materials
By using photoluminescence spectroscopy, absorption spectroscopy and transient pump-probe absorption spectroscopy, researchers from China were able to characterize 2D van-der-Waals heterostructures from transition metal dichalcogenides. They were able to investigate the charge transfer within the fabricated structure, making these materials suitable for highly efficient devices…Find out more
