READ ME File For 'Data for Probing Excitons, Trions and Dark Excitons in Monolayer WS2 using Resonance Raman Spectroscopy' Dataset DOI: 10.5258/SOTON/D0371 ReadMe Author: Liam McDonnell Group: Nanomaterials, Quantum Light and Matter. Department: Physics and Astronomy. Faculty: Physical Sciences and Engineering. University: University of Southampton. Supervisor: Prof David C. Smith This dataset supports the publication: Liam McDonnell, Chung-Che Huang, Qingsong Cui, Daniel W. Hewak, and David C Smith (2018) Probing Excitons, Trions and Dark Excitons in Monolayer WS2 using Resonance Raman Spectroscopy Nano Letters DOI: 10.1021/acs.nanolett.7b05184 Contents +++++++++ The folder published here contains the raw experimental data obtained during resonance Raman spectroscopy measurements on monolayer WS2 flakes. For a complete discussion of the results and techniques used see paper and supplementary information for more details. http://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/acs.nanolett.7b05184 Two excel spreadsheets have been provided. The first "RRS_Spectra.xlxs" contains the Raman spectra obtained from our experiments. The second "Supp_Figure.xlxs" contains data relating to the figures shown in the supplementary information, such as, reflectivity spectra, photoluminescence spectra, power linearity spectra, Anti-Stokes and Stokes Raman spectra. In each case the Raman spectra have been corrected for spectrometer efficiency (corrections for REF not applied to this data). For a given temperature the data is contained within three separate spreadsheets: For example the 4K data set will be contained in the spreadsheets labelled ?4K Shift?, ?4K Intensity?, and ?4K WL?, which contain the Raman shift, intensity, and excitation wavelengths respectively.
