Abstract
The results of studying the optical properties of nanoscale single crystals of MoS2:Cl2 and WS2:Br2 semiconductor compounds are presented. In microscopic images obtained at the wavelength of the second (400 nm), edge effects are detected, which consist in enhancement or reduction in the second-harmonic signal intensity. Unlike previously proposed interference mechanisms of edge effects, non-interference mechanisms are considered. The occurrence of edge effects is associated with either an increased Cl2 and Br2 halogen molecule concentration or with an electrically induced second harmonic caused by band bending at the edges of individual crystal layers.
