Despite having outstanding electrical properties, graphene is unsuitable for optical devices because of its zero band gap. Here, we report two-dimensional excitonic photoluminescence (PL) from graphene grown on Cu(111) surface, which shows an unexpected remarkably sharp and strong emission near 3.16 eV (full-width at half-maximum $leq$ 3meV) and multiple emissions around 3.18 eV. As temperature increases, these emissions blue-shift, showing the characteristic negative thermal coefficient of graphene. Observed PLs originate from significantly suppressed dispersion of excited electrons in graphene caused by hybridization of graphene $pi$ and Cu d orbitals of the 1st and 2nd Cu layers at a shifted saddle point 0.525(M+K) of Brillouin zone. This finding provides a new pathway to engineering novel optoelectronic graphene devices, whilst maintaining the outstanding electrical properties of graphene.

We analyze the many-particle correlations that affect the optical properties of two-dimensional semiconductors. These correlations manifest themselves through the specific optical resonances such as excitons, trions, etc. Starting from the generic el
ectron-hole Hamiltonian and employing the microscopic Heisenberg equation of motion the infinite hierarchy of differential equations can be obtained. In order to decouple the system we address the cluster expansion technique which provides a regular procedure of consistent accounting of many-particle correlation contributions into the interband polarization dynamics. In particular, the partially taken into account three-particle correlations modify the behavior of absorption spectra with the emergence of a trion-like peak additional to excitonic ones. In contrast to many other approaches, the proposed one allows us to model the optical response of 2d semiconductors in the regime when the Fermi energies are of the order of the exciton and trion binding energies, thus allowing us to rigorously model the onset of the excitonic Mott transition, the regime being recently studied in various 2d semiconductors, such as transition metal dichalcogenides.
Spin currents which allow for a dissipationless transport of information can be generated by electric fields in semiconductor heterostructures in the presence of a Rashba-type spin-orbit coupling. The largest Rashba effects occur for electronic surfa
ce states of metals but these cannot exist but under ultrahigh vacuum conditions. Here, we reveal a giant Rashba effect ({alpha}_R ~ 1.5E-10 eVm) on a surface state of Ir(111). We demonstrate that its spin splitting and spin polarization remain unaffected when Ir is covered with graphene. The graphene protection is, in turn, sufficient for the spin-split surface state to survive in ambient atmosphere. We discuss this result along with evidences for a topological protection of the surface state.
We present a study of graphene/substrate interactions on UHV-grown graphene islands with minimal surface contamination using emph{in situ} low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). We compare the physical and electronic structure of the sa
mple surface with atomic spatial resolution on graphene islands versus regions of bare Cu(111) substrate. We find that the Rydberg-like series of image potential states is shifted toward lower energy over the graphene islands relative to Cu(111), indicating a decrease in the local work function, and the resonances have a much smaller linewidth, indicating reduced coupling to the bulk. In addition, we show the dispersion of the occupied Cu(111) Shockley surface state is influenced by the graphene layer, and both the band edge and effective mass are shifted relative to bare Cu(111).
This is a comment on M. Stern, V. Garmider, E. Segre, M. Rappaport, V. Umansky, Y. Levinson, and I. Bar-Joseph, Phys. Rev. Lett. 101, 257402 (2008).
Atomically thin magnets are the key element to build up spintronics based on two-dimensional materials. The surface nature of two-dimensional ferromagnet opens up opportunities to improve the device performance efficiently. Here, we report the intrin
sic ferromagnetism in atomically thin monolayer CrBr3, directly probed by polarization resolved magneto-photoluminescence. The spontaneous magnetization persists in monolayer CrBr3 with a Curie temperature of 34 K. The development of magnons by the thermal excitation is in line with the spin-wave theory. We attribute the layer-number dependent hysteresis loops in thick layers to the magnetic domain structures. As a stable monolayer material in air, CrBr3 provides a convenient platform for fundamental physics and pushes the potential applications of the two-dimensional ferromagnetism.
