The dry transferred method paves a way to investigate exotic properties and emerging new phenomena in van der Waals heterostructures. Polycarbonate (PC) is commonly used as a polymer for the dry transfer of 2D materials. A limitation of PC is the contamination of chemical residues on the surface and the difficulty to fabricate complex heterostructures. Here, we show the study of different polymers, including polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and nitrocellulose for an effective and clean way to assemble 2D heterostructures. In addition, based on our previous method of studying encapsulated air-sensitive 2D materials (Nano Lett. 18, 6696 (2018)), we show our current development in a new technique to study air-sensitive materials in heterostructures compatible with ultra-high vacuum: in-situ de-encapsulation. This technique aims to provide the required cleanliness of mechanical assembled air-sensitive van der Waals heterostructures for their study by scanning tunneling microscopy at ultra-high vacuum and low temperature.
