The technique of micro-exfoliation has gained prominence as a highly effective and adaptable method for exploiting two-dimensional (2D) materials, such as graphene Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), Borophene, Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), among others. This paper presents an analysis of optical images and the micro exfoliation technique, focusing on the application to MoS2 and graphene. Additionally, the study investigates the exfoliated sheet of graphene, MoS2, and their hybrid on a (111) crystal plane of silicon wafer. The micro-exfoliation technique employed for MoS2 involves a mechanical process that gently disentangles the layers of MoS2 from the larger crystal structure, resulting in the formation of ultrathin two-dimensional nanosheets. This paper comprehensively analyses the exfoliation processes' mechanisms, emphasizing the intricate relationship between van der Waals forces, interlayer bonding, and external forces. The micro-mechanical exfoliation, a fundamental technique, entails the utilization of adhesive scotch tape to remove monolayers from a large MoS2 crystal delicately. The integration of MoS2 into various applications such as electronics, optoelectronics, sensors, and energy storage devices has been driven by its exceptional properties, including its distinctive electronic, optical, and mechanical characteristics. Furthermore, the ability to adjust the bandgap of MoS2 has created novel opportunities for potential applications in the field of semiconductors. This paper provides a succinct summary of recent studies, that have concentrated on the optical characterization of MoS2 monolayers. Optical and Raman spectroscopy was employed to characterize the 2D sheets of MoS2 and its hybrid materials. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
