Abstract
Hyper Rayleigh scattering (HRS) was used to measure the second-order nonlinear susceptibility, , for liquid exfoliated monolayers. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first reported application of the HRS technique to assess the bulk-like of a two-dimensional (2D) material. The concentration-dependent HRS signal indicated a first hyperpolarizability for 42 nm monolayers under 1064 nm laser irradiation using para-nitroaniline as an external reference. The corresponding value of was calculated to be . This was within 46% of independent density functional theory predictions. Agreement with theory was improved over related microscopy-based approaches. These results support the use of HRS to evaluate 2D materials for nonlinear frequency mixing applications.
