Abstract

We studied helicity resolved Raman scattering in PtSe2_2 flakes with different thicknesses. The peak amplitude of helicity-switched Raman scattering is significantly larger than that of helicity-conserved scattering for the in-plane EgE_{g} mode, consistent with the Raman tensor analyses and conservation law of angular momentum. The peak amplitude of the helicity-switched EgE_{g} mode is larger for the thinner flakes. In addition, we find Raman peaks near the energy levels of infrared (IR)-active EuE_u and A2uA_{2u} modes, only for monolayer and a few-layers thick flakes. Interestingly, these peaks manifest themselves only for helicity-switched Raman scattering; they are nearly absent for helicity-conserved scattering.
