Abstract

Molybdenum selenide (MoSe2) is a van der Waals layered crystal with both the anisotropic light absorption and light scattering outside its surface. At present, the study of the Raman tensor of MoSe2, which affects and even determines the inelastic light scattering's anisotropy, is not sufficient. In this research, with the aim of studying the out-of-plane anisotropy, we performed systematic angle-resolved polarized Raman (APR) spectroscopy and abstracted complete Raman tensors both experimentally and theoretically. In addition, according to first-principles calculations, in different conditions of laser excitation, MoSe2 has various Raman tensor forms, of which the phase difference between Raman tensor elements of the A1g mode is a particular one. By studying the anisotropic optical absorption properties, we confirmed that it is the dispersion and absorption of MoSe2 under different pump light that lead to the photon-energy-dependent phase differences.
