We investigate the layer-number-dependent dielectric response of WSe 2 by measuring the phase shift (Φ) through an electrostatic force microscopy (EFM). The measured Φ results stem mainly from the capacitive coupling between the tip and WSe 2 based on the plane capacitor model, leading to changes in the second derivat…
