Experimental and Computational Investigation of Layer-Dependent Thermal Conductivities and Interfacial Thermal Conductance of One- to Three-Layer WSe₂

Two-dimensional materials such as graphene and transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) have received extensive research interest and investigations in the past decade. In this research, we used a refined opto-thermal Raman technique to explore the thermal transport properties of one popular TMDC material WSe2, in the single-layer (1L), bilayer (2L), and trilayer (3L) forms. This measurement technique is direct without additional processing to...
