We study the interface exciton at lateral type II heterojunctions of monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), where the electron and hole prefer to stay at complementary sides of the junction. We find that the 1D interface exciton has giant binding energy in the same order as 2D excitons in pristine monolayer TMDs although the effective radius (electron-hole seperation) of interface exciton is much larger than that of 2D excitons. The binding energy, exciton radius and optical dipole strongly depends on the band offset at the junction. The inter-valley coupling induced by the electron-hole Coulomb exchange interaction and the quantum confinement effect at interface of a closed triangular shape are also investigated. Small triangles realize 0D quantum dot confinement of excitons, and we find a transition from non-degenerate ground state to degenerate ones when the size of the triangle varies. Our findings may facilitate the implementation of the optoelectronic devices based on the lateral heterojunction structures in monolayer semiconductors.

The monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides are an emergent semiconductor platform exhibiting rich excitonic physics with coupled spin-valley degree of freedom and optical addressability. Here, we report a new series of low energy excitonic emissi
on lines in the photoluminescence spectrum of ultraclean monolayer WSe2. These excitonic satellites are composed of three major peaks with energy separations matching known phonons, and appear only with electron doping. They possess homogenous spatial and spectral distribution, strong power saturation, and anomalously long population (> 6 ${mu}$s) and polarization lifetimes (> 100 ns). Resonant excitation of the free inter- and intra-valley bright trions leads to opposite optical orientation of the satellites, while excitation of the free dark trion resonance suppresses the satellites photoluminescence. Defect-controlled crystal synthesis and scanning tunneling microscopy measurements provide corroboration that these features are dark excitons bound to dilute donors, along with associated phonon replicas. Our work opens opportunities to engineer homogenous single emitters and explore collective quantum optical phenomena using intrinsic donor-bound excitons in ultraclean 2D semiconductors.
The emerging field of valleytronics aims to exploit the valley pseudospin of electrons residing near Bloch band extrema as an information carrier. Recent experiments demonstrating optical generation and manipulation of exciton valley coherence (the s
uperposition of electron-hole pairs at opposite valleys) in monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) provide a critical step towards control of this quantum degree of freedom. The charged exciton (trion) in TMDs is an intriguing alternative to the neutral exciton for control of valley pseudospin because of its long spontaneous recombination lifetime, its robust valley polarization, and its coupling to residual electronic spin. Trion valley coherence has however been unexplored due to experimental challenges in accessing it spectroscopically. In this work, we employ ultrafast two-dimensional coherent spectroscopy to resonantly generate and detect trion valley coherence in monolayer MoSe$_2$ demonstrating that it persists for a few-hundred femtoseconds. We conclude that the underlying mechanisms limiting trion valley coherence are fundamentally different from those applicable to exciton valley coherence. Based on these observations, we suggest possible strategies for extending valley coherence times in two-dimensional materials.
We calculate linear and nonlinear optical susceptibilities arising from the excitonic states of mono- layer MoS2 for in-plane light polarizations, using second-quantized bound and unbound exciton operators. Optical selection rules are critical for ob
taining the susceptibilities. We derive the valley-chirality rule for the second harmonic generation in monolayer MoS2, and find that the third- harmonic process is efficient only for linearly polarized input light while the third-order two photon process (optical Kerr effect) is efficient for circularly polarized light using a higher order exciton state. The absence of linear absorption due to the band gap and the unusually strong two-photon third-order nonlinearity make the monolayer MoS2 excitonic structure a promising resource for coherent nonlinear photonics.
Monolayer transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) have recently emerged as possible candidates for valleytronic applications, as the spin and valley pseudospin are directly coupled and stabilized by a large spin splitting. In these semiconducting ma
terials, optically excited electron-hole pairs form tightly Coulomb-bound excitons with large binding energies. The selection rules for excitonic transitions allow for direct optical generation of a valley-polarized exciton population using resonant excitation. Here, we investigate the exciton valley dynamics in monolayers of three different TMDCs by means of time-resolved Kerr rotation at low temperatures. We observe pronounced differences in the valley dynamics of tungsten- and molybdenum-based TMDCs, which are directly related to the opposite order of the conduction-band spin splitting in these materials.
We study transport of indirect excitons in GaAs/AlGaAs coupled quantum wells in linear lattices created by laterally modulated gate voltage. The localization-delocalization transition (LDT) for transport across the lattice was observed with reducing
lattice amplitude or increasing exciton density. The exciton interaction energy at the transition is close to the lattice amplitude. These results are consistent with the model, which attributes the LDT to the interaction-induced percolation of the exciton gas through the external potential. We also discuss applications of the lattice potentials for estimating the strength of disorder and exciton interaction.
