Interlayer excitons in bilayer MoS2 with strong oscillator strength up to room temperature

On the Calculation of Room Temperature Correlated Interlayer Transport in Bilayer Heterojunction Systems

We discuss a methodology for calculating the interlayer transport characteristics of electron-hole bilayer graphene at spontaneous coherence using path integral Monte Carlo and recursive scattering matrices at room temperature. We find transport characteristics very similar to that of the quantum Hall bilayer case in that there is a large peak in the differential interlayer conductance at low i...

Low-Frequency Interlayer Raman Modes to Probe Interface of Twisted Bilayer MoS2.

van der Waals homo- and heterostructures assembled by stamping monolayers together present optoelectronic properties suitable for diverse applications. Understanding the details of the interlayer stacking and resulting coupling is crucial for tuning these properties. We investigated the low-frequency interlayer shear and breathing Raman modes (<50 cm(-1)) in twisted bilayer MoS2 by Raman spectr...

Ultrafast formation of interlayer hot excitons in atomically thin MoS2/WS2 heterostructures

Van der Waals heterostructures composed of two-dimensional transition-metal dichalcogenides layers have recently emerged as a new family of materials, with great potential for atomically thin opto-electronic and photovoltaic applications. It is puzzling, however, that the photocurrent is yielded so efficiently in these structures, despite the apparent momentum mismatch between the intralayer/in...

Exciton radiative lifetimes in two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides.

Light emission in two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) changes significantly with the number of layers and stacking sequence. While the electronic structure and optical absorption are well understood in 2D-TMDs, much less is known about exciton dynamics and radiative recombination. Here, we show first-principles calculations of intrinsic exciton radiative lifetimes at lo...
