【 摘 要 】

The discovery of graphene and its analog, such as MoS_2, has boosted research. The thermal transport in 2D materials gains much of the interest, especially when graphene has high thermal conductivity. However, the thermal properties of 2D materials obtained from experiments have large discrepancies. For example, the thermal conductivity of single layer suspended graphene obtained by experiments spans over a large range: 1100–5000 W/m·K. Apart from the different graphene quality in experiments, the thermal characterization methods play an important role in the observed large deviation of experimental data. Here we provide a critical review of the widely used thermal characterization techniques: the optothermal Raman technique and the micro-bridge method. The critical issues in the two methods are carefully revised and discussed in great depth. Furthermore, improvements in Raman-based techniques to investigate the energy transport in 2D materials are discussed.
