Atomically thin layered two dimensional (2D) material has provided a rich library for both fundamental research and device applications. One of the special advantages is that, bandgap engineering and controlled material response can be achieved by stacking different 2D materials. Recently several types of excitonic lasers have been reported based on Transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) monolayers, however, the emission is still the intrinsic energy bandgap of the monolayers and lasers harnessing the flexibility of Van der Waals heterostructures have not been demonstrated yet. Here, we report for the first time a room temperature interlayer exciton laser with MoS2/WSe2 heterostructures. The onset of lasing action was identified by a combination of distinct kink in the L-L curve and the noticeable collapse of spectral linewidth. Different from visible emission of intralayer excitons for both MoS2 and WSe2, our interlayer exciton laser works in the infrared range, which is fully compatible with the well-established technologies in silicon photonics. Thanks to the long lifetime of interlayer excitons, the requirement of the cavity quality factor is relaxed by orders of magnitude. The demonstration of room temperature interlayer exciton laser might open new perspectives for the development of coherent light source with tailored optical properties on silicon photonics platform.

Indirect excitons (IXs) in van der Waals transition-metal dichalcogenide (TMD) heterostructures are characterized by a high binding energy making them stable at room temperature and giving the opportunity for exploring fundamental phenomena in excito
nic systems and developing excitonic devices operational at high temperatures. We present the observation of IXs at room temperature in van der Waals TMD heterostructures based on monolayers of MoS$_2$ separated by atomically thin hexagonal boron nitride. The IXs realized in the TMD heterostructure have lifetimes orders of magnitude longer than lifetimes of direct excitons in single-layer TMD, and their energy is gate controlled.
For quantum technologies based on single excitons and spins, the deterministic placement and control of a single exciton is a long-standing goal. MoSe2-WSe2 heterostructures host spatially indirect interlayer excitons (IXs) which exhibit highly tunab
le energies and unique spin-valley physics, making them promising candidates for quantum information processing. Previous IX trapping approaches involving moire superlattices and nanopillars do not meet the quantum technology requirements of deterministic placement and energy tunability. Here, we use a nanopatterned graphene gate to create a sharply varying electric field in close proximity to a MoSe2-WSe2 heterostructure. The dipole interaction between the IX and the electric field creates an ~20 nm trap. The trapped IXs show the predicted electric field dependent energy, saturation at low excitation power, and increased lifetime, all signatures of strong spatial confinement. The demonstrated architecture is a crucial step towards deterministic trapping of single IXs, which has broad applications to scalable quantum technologies.
Throughout the years, strongly correlated coherent states of excitons have been the subject of intense theoretical and experimental studies. This topic has recently boomed due to new emerging quantum materials such as van der Waals (vdW) bound atomic
ally thin layers of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs). We analyze the collective properties of charged interlayer excitons observed recently in bilayer TMD heterostructures. We predict new strongly correlated phases - crystal and Wigner crystal - that can be selectively realized with TMD bilayers of properly chosen electron-hole effective masses by just varying their interlayer separation distance. Our results open up new avenues for nonlinear coherent control, charge transport and spinoptronics applications with quantum vdW heterostuctures.
Two-dimensional (2D) materials, such as graphene1, boron nitride2, and transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs)3-5, have sparked wide interest in both device physics and technological applications at the atomic monolayer limit. These 2D monolayers can
be stacked together with precise control to form novel van der Waals heterostructures for new functionalities2,6-9. One highly coveted but yet to be realized heterostructure is that of differing monolayer TMDs with type II band alignment10-12. Their application potential hinges on the fabrication, understanding, and control of bonded monolayers, with bound electrons and holes localized in individual monolayers, i.e. interlayer excitons. Here, we report the first observation of interlayer excitons in monolayer MoSe2-WSe2 heterostructures by both photoluminescence and photoluminescence excitation spectroscopy. The energy and luminescence intensity of interlayer excitons are highly tunable by an applied vertical gate voltage, implying electrical control of the heterojunction band-alignment. Using time resolved photoluminescence, we find that the interlayer exciton is long-lived with a lifetime of about 1.8 ns, an order of magnitude longer than intralayer excitons13-16. Our work demonstrates the ability to optically pump interlayer electric polarization and provokes the immediate exploration of interlayer excitons for condensation phenomena, as well as new applications in 2D light-emitting diodes, lasers, and photovoltaic devices.
Based on emph{ab initio} theoretical calculations of the optical spectra of vertical heterostructures of MoSe$_2$ (or MoS$_2$) and WSe$_2$ sheets, we reveal two spin-orbit-split Rydberg series of excitonic states below the textsl{A} excitons of MoSe$
_2$ and WSe$_2$ with a significant binding energy on the order of 250,meV for the first excitons in the series. At the same time, we predict crystalographically aligned MoSe$_2$/WSe$_2$ heterostructures to exhibit an indirect fundamental band gap. Due to the type-II nature of the MoSe$_2$/WSe$_2$ heterostructure, the indirect transition and the exciton Rydberg series corresponding to a direct transition exhibit a distinct interlayer nature with spatial charge separation of the coupled electrons and holes. The experimentally observed long-lived states in photoluminescence spectra of MoX$_2$/WY$_2$ heterostructure are attributed to such interlayer exciton states. Our calculations further suggest an effect of stacking order on the peak energy of the interlayer excitons and their oscillation strengths.
