Atomically thin materials, like semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides (S-TMDs), are highly sensitive to the environment. This opens up an opportunity to externally control their properties by changing their surroundings. We investigate the effect of several metallic substrates on the optical properties of MoSe$_2$ monolayer (ML) deposited on top of them with photoluminescence and reflectance contrast techniques. The optical spectra of MoSe$_{2}$ MLs deposited on Pt, Au, Mo and Zr have distinctive metal-related lineshapes. In particular, a substantial variation in the intensity ratio and the energy separation between a negative trion and a neutral exciton is observed. It is shown that using metals as substrates affects the doping of S-TMD MLs. The explanation of the effect involves the Schottky barrier formation at the interface between the MoSe$_{2}$ ML and the metallic substrates. The alignment of energy levels at the metal/semiconductor junction allows for the transfer of charge carriers between them. We argue that a proper selection of metallic substrates can be a way to inject appropriate types of carriers into the respective bands of S-TMDs.

Nanoplasmonic systems combined with optically-active two-dimensional materials provide intriguing opportunities to explore and control light-matter interactions at extreme sub-wavelength lengthscales approaching the exciton Bohr radius. Here, we present room- and cryogenic-temperature investigations of light-matter interactions between an MoSe$_2$ monolayer and individual lithographically defined gold dipole nanoantennas having sub-10 nm feed gaps. By progressively tuning the nanoantenna size, their dipolar resonance is tuned relative to the A-exciton transition in a proximal MoSe$_2$ monolayer achieving a total tuning of $sim 130;mathrm{meV}$. Differential reflectance measurements performed on $> 100$ structures reveal an apparent avoided crossing between exciton and dipolar mode and an exciton-plasmon coupling constant of $g= 55;mathrm{meV}$, representing $g/(hbaromega_X)geq3%$ of the transition energy. This places our hybrid system in the intermediate-coupling regime where spectra exhibit a characteristic Fano-like shape, indicative of the interplay between pronounced light-matter coupling and significant damping. We also demonstrate active control of the optical response by varying the polarization of the excitation light to programmably suppress coupling to the dipole mode. We further study the emerging optical signatures of the monolayer localized at dipole nanoantennas at $10;mathrm{K}$. Our findings represent a key step towards realizing non-linear photonic devices based on 2D materials with potential for low-energy and ultrafast performance.
Excitons in monolayer transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) provide a paradigm of composite Boson in 2D system. This letter reports a photoluminescence and reflectance study of excitons in monolayer molybdenum diselenide (MoSe2) with electrostatic gating. We observe the repulsive and attractive Fermi polaron modes of the band edge exciton, its excited state and the spin-off excitons. Our data validate the polaronic behavior of excitonic states in the system quantitatively where the simple three-particle trion model is insufficient to explain.
We report polarization-resolved resonant reflection spectroscopy of a charge-tunable atomically-thin valley semiconductor hosting tightly bound excitons coupled to a dilute system of fully spin- and valley-polarized holes in the presence of a strong magnetic field. We find that exciton-hole interactions manifest themselves in hole-density dependent, Shubnikov-de Haas-like oscillations in the energy and line broadening of the excitonic resonances. These oscillations are evidenced to be precisely correlated with the occupation of Landau levels, thus demonstrating that strong interactions between the excitons and Landau-quantized itinerant carriers enable optical investigation of quantum-Hall physics in transition metal dichalcogenides.
Magneto transmission spectroscopy was employed to study the valley Zeeman effect in large-area monolayer MoS$_{2}$ and MoSe$_{2}$. The extracted values of the valley g-factors for both A- and B-exciton were found be similar with $g_v simeq -4.5$. The samples are expected to be strained due to the CVD growth on sapphire at high temperature ($700^circ$C). However, the estimated strain, which is maximum at low temperature, is only $simeq 0.2%$. Theoretical considerations suggest that the strain is too small to significantly influence the electronic properties. This is confirmed by the measured value of valley g-factor, and the measured temperature dependence of the band gap, which are almost identical for CVD and mechanically exfoliated MoS$_2$.
We study the impact of a free carrier reservoir on the optical properties of excitonic and trionic complexes in a MoSe$_2$ monolayer at cryogenic temperatures. By applying photodoping via a non-resonant pump laser the electron density can be controlled in our sample and in turn the exciton and trion densities can be tuned. We find a significant increase of the trion binding energy in the presence of an induced electron gas both in power- and in time-resolved photoluminescence spectra. This behaviour is reproduced within the original variational approach that takes into account both screening and phase space filling effects.
