Interlayer excitons are observed coexisting with intralayer excitons in bi-layer, few-layer, and bulk MoSe2 single crystals by confocal reflection contrast spectroscopy. Quantitative analysis using the Dirac-Bloch-Equations provides unambiguous state assignment of all the measured resonances. The interlayer excitons in bilayer MoSe2 have a large binding energy of 153 meV, narrow linewidth of 20 meV, and their spectral weight is comparable to the commonly studied higher-order intralayer excitons. At the same time, the interlayer excitons are characterized by distinct transition energies and permanent dipole moments providing a promising high temperature and optically accessible platform for dipolar exciton physics.

A surface layer (skin) that is functionally and structurally different from the bulk was found in single crystals of BiFeO3. Impedance analysis indicates that a previously reported anomaly at T* ~ 275 pm 5 ^/circC corresponds to a phase transition co
nfined at the surface of BiFeO3. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction as a function of both incidence angle and photon wavelength unambiguously confirm the existence of a skin with an estimated skin depth of few nanometres, elongated out-of-plane lattice parameter, and lower electron density. Temperature-dependent x-ray diffraction has revealed that the skins out of plane lattice parameter changes abruptly at T*, while the bulk preserves an unfeatured linear thermal expansion. The distinct properties of the skin are likely to dominate in large surface to volume ratios scenarios such as fine grained ceramics and thin films, and should be particularly relevant for electronic devices that rely on interfacial couplings such as exchange bias.
Anatase TiO$_2$ is among the most studied materials for light-energy conversion applications, but the nature of its fundamental charge excitations is still unknown. Yet it is crucial to establish whether light absorption creates uncorrelated electron
-hole pairs or bound excitons and, in the latter case, to determine their character. Here, by combining steady-state angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and spectroscopic ellipsometry with state-of-the-art ab initio calculations, we demonstrate that the direct optical gap of single crystals is dominated by a strongly bound exciton rising over the continuum of indirect interband transitions. This exciton possesses an intermediate character between the Wannier-Mott and Frenkel regimes and displays a peculiar two-dimensional wavefunction in the three-dimensional lattice. The nature of the higher-energy excitations is also identified. The universal validity of our results is confirmed up to room temperature by observing the same elementary excitations in defect-rich samples (doped single crystals and nanoparticles) via ultrafast two-dimensional deep-ultraviolet spectroscopy.
Motivated by recent experimental observations of Tongay et al. [Tongay et al., Nano Letters, 12(11), 5576 (2012)] we show how the electronic properties and Raman characteristics of single layer MoSe2 are affected by elastic biaxial strain. We found t
hat with increasing strain: (1) the E and E Raman peaks (E1g and E2g in bulk) exhibit significant red shifts (up to 30 cm-1), (2) the position of the A1 peak remains at 180 cm-1 (A1g in bulk) and does not change considerably with further strain, (3) the dispersion of low energy flexural phonons crosses over from quadratic to linear and (4) the electronic band structure undergoes a direct to indirect bandgap crossover under 3% biaxial tensile strain. Thus the application of strain appears to be a promising approach for a rapid and reversible tuning of the electronic, vibrational and optical properties of single layer MoSe2 and similar MX2 dichalcogenides.
Hyperspectral imaging at cryogenic temperatures is used to investigate exciton and trion propagation in MoSe$_2$ monolayers encapsulated with hexagonal boron nitride (hBN). Under a tightly focused, continuous-wave laser excitation, the spatial distri
bution of neutral excitons and charged trions strongly differ at high excitation densities. Remarkably, in this regime the trion distribution develops a halo shape, similar to that previously observed in WS2 monolayers at room temperature and under pulsed excitation. In contrast, the exciton distribution only presents a moderate broadening without the appereance of a halo. Spatially and spectrally resolved luminescence spectra reveal the buildup of a significant temperature gradient at high excitation power, that is attributed to the energy relaxation of photoinduced hot carriers. We show, via a numerical resolution of the transport equations for excitons and trions, that the halo can be interpreted as thermal drift of trions due to a Seebeck term in the particle current. The model shows that the difference between trion and exciton profiles is simply understood in terms of the very different lifetimes of these two quasiparticles.
Accurately described excitonic properties of transition metal dichalcogenide heterobilayers (HBLs) are crucial to comprehend the optical response and the charge carrier dynamics of them. Excitons in multilayer systems posses inter or intralayer chara
cter whose spectral positions depend on their binding energy and the band alignment of the constituent single-layers. In this study, we report the electronic structure and the absorption spectra of MoS$_2$/WS$_2$ and MoSe$_2$/WSe$_2$ HBLs from first-principles calculations. We explore the spectral positions, binding energies and the origins of inter and intralayer excitons and compare our results with experimental observations. The absorption spectra of the systems are obtained by solving the Bethe-Salpeter equation on top of a G$_0$W$_0$ calculation which corrects the independent particle eigenvalues obtained from density functional theory calculations. Our calculations reveal that the lowest energy exciton in both HBLs possesses interlayer character which is decisive regarding their possible device applications. Due to the spatially separated nature of the charge carriers, the binding energy of inter-layer excitons might be expected to be considerably smaller than that of intra-layer ones. However, according to our calculations the binding energy of lowest energy interlayer excitons is only $sim$ 20% lower due to the weaker screening of the Coulomb interaction between layers of the HBLs. Therefore, it can be deduced that the spectral positions of the interlayer excitons with respect to intralayer ones are mostly determined by the band offset of the constituent single-layers. By comparing oscillator strengths and thermal occupation factors, we show that in luminescence at low temperature, the interlayer exciton peak becomes dominant, while in absorption it is almost invisible.
