In this paper we develop the excitonic theory of Kerr rotation angle in a two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenide at zero magnetic field. The finite Kerr angle is induced by the interplay between spin-orbit splitting and proximity exchange coupling due to the presence of a ferromagnet. We compare the excitonic effect with the single particle theory approach. We show that the excitonic properties of the 2D material lead to a dramatic change in the frequency dependence of the optical response function. We also find that the excitonic corrections enhance the optical response by a factor of two in the case of MoS2 in proximity to a Cobalt thin film.

We study the electronic structure of heterostructures formed by a graphene nanoribbon (GNR) and a transition metal dichalcogenides (TMD) monolayer using first-principles. We consider both semiconducting TMDs and metallic TMDs, and different stacking
configurations. We find that when the TMD is semiconducting the effects on the band structure of the GNRs are small. In particular the spin-splitting induced by proximity on the GNRs bands is only of the order of few meV irrespective of the stacking configuration. When the TMD is metallic, such as NbSe2, we find that the spin-splitting induced in the GNRs can be very large and strongly dependent on the stacking configuration. For optimal stacking configurations the proximity-induced spin-splitting is of the order of 20 meV for armchair graphene nanoribbons, and as high as 40 meV for zigzag graphene nanoribbons. This results are encouraging for the prospects of using GNR-TMD heterostructures to realize quasi one-dimensional topological superconducting states supporting Majorana modes.
We report a systematic study on strong enhancement of spin-orbit interaction (SOI) in graphene driven by transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs). Low temperature magnetotoransport measurements of graphene proximitized to different TMDs (monolayer and
bulk WSe$_2$, WS$_2$ and monolayer MoS$_2$) all exhibit weak antilocalization peaks, a signature of strong SOI induced in graphene. The amplitudes of the induced SOI are different for different materials and thickness, and we find that monolayer WSe$_2$ and WS$_2$ can induce much stronger SOI than bulk ones and also monolayer MoS$_2$. The estimated spin-orbit (SO) scattering strength for the former reaches $sim$ 10 meV whereas for the latter it is around 1 meV or less. We also discuss the symmetry and type of the induced SOI in detail, especially focusing on the identification of intrinsic and valley-Zeeman (VZ) SOI via the dominant spin relaxation mechanism. Our findings offer insight on the possible realization of the quantum spin Hall (QSH) state in graphene.
A new electromagnetic plasma mode has been discovered in the hybrid system formed by a highly conductive gate strip placed in proximity to the two-dimensional electron system. The new plasmon mode propagates along the gate strip with no potential nod
es present in transverse direction. Its unique spectrum combines characteristic features of both gated and ungated 2D plasmons. The new plasma excitation has been found to exhibit anomalously strong interaction with light.
Manipulating spin polarization of electrons in nonmagnetic semiconductors by means of electric fields or optical fields is an essential theme of the conceptual nonmagnetic semiconductor-based spintronics. Here we experimentally demonstrate a method o
f generating spin polarization in monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMD) by the circularly polarized optical pumping. The fully spin-polarized photocurrent is achieved through the valley dependent optical selection rules and the spin-valley locking in monolayer WS2, and electrically detected by a lateral spin-valve structure with ferromagnetic contacts. The demonstrated long spin lifetime, the unique valley contrasted physics and the spin-valley locking make monolayer WS2 an unprecedented candidate for semiconductor based spintronics.
Impurities play an important role during recombination processes in semiconductors. Their important role is sharpened in atomically-thin transition-metal dichalcogenides whose two-dimensional character renders electrons and holes highly susceptible t
o localization caused by remote charged impurities. We study a multitude of phenomena that arise from the interaction of localized electrons with excitonic complexes. Emphasis is given to the amplification of the phonon-assisted recombination of biexcitons when it is mediated by localized electrons, showing that this mechanism can explain recent photoluminescence experiments in ML-WSe$_2$. In addition, the magnetic-field dependence of this mechanism is analyzed. The results of this work point to (i) an intriguing coupling between the longitudinal-optical and homopolar phonon modes that can further elucidate various experimental results, (ii) the physics behind a series of localization-induced optical transitions in tungsten-based materials, and (iii) the importance of localization centers in facilitating the creation of biexcitons and exciton-exciton annihilation processes.
