Resonance‐Enhanced Four‐Wave Mixing Imaging for Mapping Defect Regions in Vanadium‐Doped WS2 Monolayers

open access: yesSmall Methods, EarlyView.
Resonant four‐wave mixing (FWM) microscopy reveals a spatial modulation of the third‐order nonlinear optical response in vanadium‐doped WS2 monolayers. This robust nonlinear contrast technique tracks the preferential accumulation of vanadium dopants along the structural bisection lines of the synthesized flakes.
