Abstract

Light emission induced by scanning tunneling microscope on gold islands grown on MoS2 surfaces has been investigated. Surface geometry and roughness show that different apexes of the same tip can modify the energy of photons emitted in the tunneling junction. Comparisons of topography and photon map are used to locate islands imaged twice and to represent approximately the tip shape used. Light emission spectroscopy on the same island with two apexes of the multiple tip reveals variations of emission properties according to the apex used, showing the importance of tip geometry in the emission process induced by tip induced plasmon modes.
