Rapid optical determination of topological insulator nanoplate thickness and oxidation

The stability of 2D antimony telluride (Sb2Te3) nanoplates in ambient conditions is elucidated. These materials exhibit an anisotropic oxidation mode, and CVD synthesized samples oxidize at a much faster rate than exfoliated samples investigated in previous studies. Optical measurement techniques ar...
