Direct-gap materials hold promises for excitonic insulator. In contrast to indirect-gap materials, here the difficulty to distinguish from a Peierls charge density wave is circumvented. However, direct-gap materials still suffer from the divergence of polarizability when the band gap approaches zero, leading to diminishing exciton binding energy. We propose that one can decouple the exciton binding energy from the band gap in materials where band-edge states have the same parity. First-principles calculations of two-dimensional GaAs and experimentally mechanically exfoliated single-layer TiS 3 lend solid supports to the new principle.

While various excitonic insulators have been studied in the literature, due to the perceived too-small spin splitting, spin-triplet excitonic insulator is rare. In two-dimensional systems such as a graphone, however, it is possible, as revealed by fi
rst-principles calculations coupled with Bethe-Salpeter equation. The critical temperature, given by an effective Hamiltonian, is 11.5 K. While detecting excitonic insulators is still a daunting challenge, the condensation of triplet excitons will result in spin superfluidity, which can be directly measured by a transport experiment. Nonlocal dielectric screening also leads to an unexpected phenomenon, namely, an indirect-to-direct transition crossover between single-particle band and exciton dispersion in graphone, which offers yet another test by experiment.
To elucidate an origin of the two energy gaps in the narrow-gap semiconductor FeSb2, we have investigated the effects of hydrostatic pressure on the resistivity, Hall resistance and magnetoresistance at low temperatures. The larger energy gap evaluat
ed from the temperature dependence of resistivity above 100 K is enhanced from 30 to 40 meV with pressure from 0 to 1.8 GPa, as generally observed in conventional semiconductors. In the low-temperature range where a large Seebeck coefficient was observed, we evaluate the smaller energy gap from the magnetotransport tensor using a two-carrier model and find that the smaller gap exhibits a weak pressure dependence in contrast to that of the larger gap. To explain the pressure variations of the energy gaps, we propose a simple model that the smaller gap is a gap from the impurity level to the conduction band and the larger one is a gap between the valence and conduction bands, suggesting that the observed large Seebeck coefficient is not relevant to electron correlation effects.
We report on the nonequilibrium dynamics of the electronic structure of the layered semiconductor Ta$_2$NiSe$_5$ investigated by time- and angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy. We show that below the critical excitation density of $F_{C} = 0.2$
mJ cm$^{-2}$, the band gap $narrows$ transiently, while it is $enhanced$ above $F_{C}$. Hartree-Fock calculations reveal that this effect can be explained by the presence of the low-temperature excitonic insulator phase of Ta$_2$NiSe$_5$, whose order parameter is connected to the gap size. This work demonstrates the ability to manipulate the band gap of Ta$_2$NiSe$_5$ with light on the femtosecond time scale.
We employ an eigen polarization model including the description of direction dependent excitonic effects for rendering critical point structures within the dielectric function tensor of monoclinic beta-Ga2O3 yielding a comprehensive analysis of gener
alized ellipsometry data obtained from 0.75 eV--9 eV. The eigen polarization model permits complete description of the dielectric response, and we obtain single-electron and excitonic band-to-band transition anisotropic critical point structure model parameters including their polarization eigenvectors within the monoclinic lattice. We compare our experimental analysis with results from density functional theory calculations performed using a recently proposed Gaussian-attenuation-Perdue-Burke-Ernzerhof hybrid density functional, and we present and discuss the order of the fundamental direct band-to-band transitions and their polarization selection rules, the electron and hole effective mass parameters for the three lowest band-to-band transitions, and their exciton binding energy parameters, in excellent agreement with our experimental results. We find that the effective masses for holes are highly anisotropic and correlate with the selection rules for the fundamental band-to-band transitions, where the observed transitions are polarized closely in the direction of the lowest hole effective mass for the valence band participating in the transition.
Optoelectronic excitations in monolayer MoS2 manifest from a hierarchy of electrically tunable, Coulombic free-carrier and excitonic many-body phenomena. Investigating the fundamental interactions underpinning these phenomena - critical to both many-
body physics exploration and device applications - presents challenges, however, due to a complex balance of competing optoelectronic effects and interdependent properties. Here, optical detection of bound- and free-carrier photoexcitations is used to directly quantify carrier-induced changes of the quasiparticle band gap and exciton binding energies. The results explicitly disentangle the competing effects and highlight longstanding theoretical predictions of large carrier-induced band gap and exciton renormalization in 2D semiconductors.
