Control of Coherently Coupled Exciton Polaritons in Monolayer Tungsten Disulphide.
Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMD) with confined 2D Wannier-Mott excitons are intriguing for the fundamental study of strong light-matter interactions and the exploration of exciton polaritons at high temperatures. However, the research of 2D exciton polaritons has been hindered because the polaritons in these atomically thin semiconductors discovered so far can hardly support str...
متن کاملQuasi-two-dimensional excitons in finite magnetic fields
We present a theoretical and experimental investigation of the effects of a magnetic field on quasi-twodimensional excitons. We calculate the internal structures and dispersion relations of spatially direct and indirect excitons in single and coupled quantum wells in a magnetic field perpendicular to the well plane. We find a sharp transition from a hydrogenlike exciton to a magnetoexciton with...
متن کاملExciton dispersion in molecular solids.
The investigation of the exciton dispersion (i.e. the exciton energy dependence as a function of the momentum carried by the electron-hole pair) is a powerful approach to identify the exciton character, ranging from the strongly localised Frenkel to the delocalised Wannier-Mott limiting cases. We illustrate this possibility at the example of four prototypical molecular solids (picene, pentacene...
متن کاملCondensation of semiconductor microcavity exciton polaritons.
A phase transition from a classical thermal mixed state to a quantum-mechanical pure state of exciton polaritons is observed in a GaAs multiple quantum-well microcavity from the decrease of the second-order coherence function. Supporting evidence is obtained from the observation of a nonlinear threshold behavior in the pump-intensity dependence of the emission, a polariton-like dispersion relat...
متن کاملCharge Separation and Exciton Dynamics at Polymer/ZnO Interface from First-Principles Simulations.
Charge separation and exciton dynamics play a crucial role in determining the performance of excitonic photovoltaics. Using time-dependent density functional theory with a range-separated exchange-correlation functional as well as nonadiabatic ab initio molecular dynamics, we have studied the formation and dynamics of charge-transfer (CT) excitons at polymer/ZnO interface. The interfacial atomi...
