Two-dimensional (2D) materials are being used widely for chemical sensing applications due to their large surface-to-volume ratio and photoluminescence (PL) emission and emission exciton band tunability. To better understand how the analyte affects the PL response for a model 2D platform, we used atomic force microscopy (AFM) and co-localized photoluminescence (PL) and Raman mapping to characterize tungsten disulfide (WS 2 ) flakes on template-stripped gold (TSG) under acetone challenge. We determined the PL-based response from single- and few-layer WS 2 arises from three excitons (neutral, A 0 ; biexciton, AA; and the trion, A - ). The A 0 exciton PL emission is the most strongly quenched by acetone whereas the A - PL emission exhibits an enhancement. We find the PL behavior is also WS 2 layer number dependent.
