2D polar metals are a novel family of atomically thin plasmonic quantum materials, which are synthesized by confinement heteroepitaxial growth (CHet)1. Hereby, metal atoms such as silver or gallium are intercalated between bilayer graphene and a silicon carbide substrate. In the case of 2D polar silver, a stable monolayer structure forms which has been shown to be an indirect bandgap semiconductor2. However, Raman imaging seems to indicate the existence of a second, possibly metallic, phase3.
We investigated 2D polar silver samples of varying growth conditions via spectroscopic imaging ellipsometry, in order to access lateral inhomogeneities by modifications in the dielectric functions sensitive to different phases.
