Brightening of dark excitons in monolayers of semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides
We present low-temperature magneto-photoluminescence experiments which demonstrate the brightening of dark excitons by an in-plane magnetic field B applied to monolayers of different semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides. For WSe2 and WS2 monolayers, the dark exciton emission is observed at ∼50 meV below the bright exciton peak and displays a characteristic doublet structure whose int...
متن کاملChiral topological excitons in the monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides
We theoretically investigate the chiral topological excitons emerging in the monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides, where a bulk energy gap of valley excitons is opened up by a position dependent external magnetic field. We find two emerging chiral topological nontrivial excitons states, which exactly connects to the bulk topological properties, i.e., Chern number = 2. The dependence of th...
متن کاملDark excitons and the elusive valley polarization in transition metal dichalcogenides
A rate equation model for the dark and bright excitons kinetics is proposed which explains the wide variation in the observed degree of circular polarization of the PL emission in different TMDs monolayers. Our work suggests that the dark exciton states play an important, and previously unsuspected role in determining the degree of polarization of the PL emission. A dark exciton ground state pr...

متن کاملUsing dark states for exciton storage in transition-metal dichalcogenides.
We explore the possibility of storing excitons in excitonic dark states in monolayer semiconducting transition-metal dichalcogenides. In addition to being optically inactive, these dark states require the electron and hole to be spatially separated, thus inhibiting electron/hole recombination and allowing exciton lifetimes to be extended. Based on an atomistic exciton model, we derive transitio...
