Metallic nanoparticles are widely explored for boosting light-matter coupling of 2D materials, however, the target area for nanoparticle deposition is typically restricted to either the top or the bottom of 2D flakes. Here, the authors show tunable, edge-specific nanoparticle decoration using a laser, achieving arrays of silver nanoparticles that are self-limited in size along tungsten diselenide nanoribbon edges.
