Transition-metal dichalcogenides can be easily produced as atomically thin sheets, exhibiting the possibility to optically polarize and read out the valley pseudospin of extremely stable excitonic quasiparticles present in these 2D semiconductors. Here, we investigate a monolayer of tungsten disulphide in high magnetic fields up to 30,T via photoluminescence spectroscopy at low temperatures. The valley degeneracy is lifted for all optical features, particularly for excitons, singlet and triplet trions, for which we determine the g factor separately. While the observation of a diamagnetic shift of the exciton and trion resonances gives us insight into the real-space extension of these quasiparticles, magnetic field induced valley polarization effects shed light onto the exciton and trion dispersion relations in reciprocal space. The field dependence of the trion valley polarizations is in line with the predicted trion splitting into singlet and triplet configurations.

Due to degeneracies arising from crystal symmetries, it is possible for electron states at band edges (valleys) to have additional spin-like quantum numbers. An important question is whether coherent manipulation can be performed on such valley pseud
ospins, analogous to that routinely implemented using true spin, in the quest for quantum technologies. Here we show for the first time that SU(2) valley coherence can indeed be generated and detected. Using monolayer semiconductor WSe2 devices, we first establish the circularly polarized optical selection rules for addressing individual valley excitons and trions. We then reveal coherence between valley excitons through the observation of linearly polarized luminescence, whose orientation always coincides with that of any linearly polarized excitation. Since excitons in a single valley emit circularly polarized photons, linear polarization can only be generated through recombination of an exciton in a coherent superposition of the two valleys. In contrast, the corresponding photoluminescence from trions is not linearly polarized, consistent with the expectation that the emitted photon polarization is entangled with valley pseudospin. The ability to address coherence, in addition to valley polarization, adds a critical dimension to the quantum manipulation of valley index necessary for coherent valleytronics.
We study Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations in a p-type WSe$_2$ monolayer under very high magnetic field. The oscillation pattern is complex due to a large spin and valley splitting, in the non-fully-resolved Landau level regime. Our experimental data ca
n be reproduced with a model in which the main parameter is the ratio between the Zeeman energy and the cyclotron energy. The model takes into account the Landau levels from both valleys with the same Gaussian broadening, which allows to predict the relative amplitude of the resistance oscillation originating from each valley. The Zeeman energy is found to be several times larger than the cyclotron energy. It translates into a large and increasing effective Lande factor as the hole density decreases, in the continuity of the values reported in the literature at lower carrier density.
Low temperature and polarization resolved magneto-photoluminescence experiments are used to investigate the properties of dark excitons and dark trions in a monolayer of WS$_2$ encapsulated in hexagonal BN (hBN). We find that this system is an $n$-ty
pe doped semiconductor and that dark trions dominate the emission spectrum. In line with previous studies on WSe$_2$, we identify the Coulomb exchange interaction coupled neutral dark and grey excitons through their polarization properties, while an analogous effect is not observed for dark trions. Applying the magnetic field in both perpendicular and parallel configurations with respect to the monolayer plane, we determine the g-factor of dark trions to be $gsim$-8.6. Their decay rate is close to 0.5 ns, more than 2 orders of magnitude longer than that of bright excitons.
We investigate Landau-quantized excitonic absorption and luminescence of monolayer WSe$_2$ under magnetic field. We observe gate-dependent quantum oscillations in the bright exciton and trions (or exciton-polarons) as well as the dark trions and thei
r phonon replicas. Our results reveal spin- and valley-polarized Landau levels (LLs) with filling factors $n = +0, +1$ in the bottom conduction band and $n = -0$ to $-6$ in the top valence band, including the Berry-curvature-induced $n = pm0$ LLs of massive Dirac fermions. The LL filling produces periodic plateaus in the exciton energy shift accompanied by sharp oscillations in the exciton absorption width and magnitude. This peculiar exciton behavior can be simulated by semi-empirical calculations. The experimentally deduced g-factors of the conduction band (g ~ 2.5) and valence band (g ~ 15) exceed those predicted in a single-particle model (g = 1.5, 5.5, respectively). Such g-factor enhancement implies strong many-body interactions in gated monolayer WSe$_2$. The complex interplay between Landau quantization, excitonic effects, and many-body interactions makes monolayer WSe$_2$ a promising platform to explore novel correlated quantum phenomena.
The semiconducting single-layer transition metal dichalcogenides have been identified as ideal materials for accessing and manipulating spin- and valley-quantum numbers due to a set of favorable optical selection rules in these materials. Here, we ap
ply time- and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy to directly probe optically excited free carriers in the electronic band structure of a high quality single layer of WS$_2$. We observe that the optically generated free hole density in a single valley can be increased by a factor of 2 using a circularly polarized optical excitation. Moreover, we find that by varying the photon energy of the excitation we can tune the free carrier density in a given spin-split state around the valence band maximum of the material. The control of the photon energy and polarization of the excitation thus permits us to selectively excite free electron-hole pairs with a given spin and within a single valley.
