2D transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are gaining attention as their optical and electronic properties differ from those of their bulk counterparts. In particular, layer thickness-dependent properties, such as the transition from an indirect to a direct band gap in monolayers, make these materials interesting for photonic and optoelectronic applications. At the same time 2D-TMDs are ideal materials for the advancement of new techniques in scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) like differential phase contrast (DPC)-STEM. Using a spherical aberration corrected STEM, this technique enables the quantification of atomic electric fields with sub-atomic resolution if the specimen is sufficiently thin. In order to examine the atomic electric fields of TMDs, we transferred mechanically exfoliated mono- and multilayers of tungsten diselenide (WSe2) to TEM grids. The atomic structure of WSe2 flakes and their thickness are studied using TEM, energy filtered TEM and STEM. STEM-DPC measurements are performed using an eight-fold segmented bright-field STEM detector measuring the beam deflection due to the internal fields. Results are presented for WSe2 flakes of different thickness and compared with simulations.
