Interlayer excitons (IXs) possess a much longer lifetime than intralayer excitons due to the spatial separation of the electrons and holes; hence, they have been pursued to create exciton condensates for decades. The recent emergence of two-dimensional (2D) materials, such as transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), and of their van der Waals heterostructures (HSs), in which two different 2D materials are layered together, has created new opportunities to study IXs. Here we present the observation of IX gases within two stacked structures consisting of hBN/WSe$_2$/hBN/p: WSe$_2$/hBN. The IX energy of the two different structures differed by 82 meV due to the different thickness of the hBN spacer layer between the TMD layers. We demonstrate that the lifetime of the IXs is shortened when the temperature and the pump power increase. We attribute this nonlinear behavior to an Auger process.

Monolayer WSe$_2$ hosts a series of exciton Rydberg states denoted by the principal quantum number n = 1, 2, 3, etc. While most research focuses on their absorption properties, their optical emission is also important but much less studied. Here we m
easure the photoluminescence from the 1s - 5s exciton Rydberg states in ultraclean monolayer WSe$_2$ encapsulated by boron nitride under magnetic fields from -31 T to 31 T. The exciton Rydberg states exhibit similar Zeeman shifts but distinct diamagnetic shifts from each other. From their luminescence spectra, Zeeman and diamagnetic shifts, we deduce the binding energies, g-factors and radii of the 1s - 4s exciton states. Our results are consistent with theoretical predictions and results from prior magneto-reflection experiments.
Many of the fundamental optical and electronic properties of atomically thin transition metal dichalcogenides are dominated by strong Coulomb interactions between electrons and holes, forming tightly bound atom-like excitons. Here, we directly trace
the ultrafast formation of excitons by monitoring the absolute densities of bound and unbound electron-hole pairs in monolayers of WSe$_2$ following femtosecond non-resonant optical excitation. To this end, phase-locked mid-infrared probe pulses and field-sensitive electro-optic sampling are used to map out the full complex-valued optical conductivity of the non-equilibrium system and to discern the hallmark low-energy responses of bound and unbound pairs. While free charge carriers strongly influence the infrared response immediately after above-bandgap injection, up to 60% of the electron-hole pairs are bound as excitons already on a sub-picosecond timescale, evidencing extremely fast and efficient exciton formation. During the subsequent recombination phase, we still find a large density of free carriers in addition to excitons, indicating a non-equilibrium state of the photoexcited electron-hole system.
Interlayer excitons in layered materials constitute a novel platform to study many-body phenomena arising from long-range interactions between quantum particles. The ability to localise individual interlayer excitons in potential energy traps is a ke
y step towards simulating Hubbard physics in artificial lattices. Here, we demonstrate spatial localisation of long-lived interlayer excitons in a strongly confining trap array using a WS$_{2}$/WSe$_{2}$ heterostructure on a nanopatterned substrate. We detect long-lived interlayer excitons with lifetime approaching 0.2 ms and show that their confinement results in a reduced lifetime in the microsecond range and stronger emission rate with sustained optical selection rules. The combination of a permanent dipole moment, spatial confinement and long lifetime places interlayer excitons in a regime that satisfies one of the requirements for observing long-range dynamics in an optically resolvable trap lattice.
The Hall effect can be extended by inducing a temperature gradient in lieu of electric field that is known as the Nernst (-Ettingshausen) effect. The recently discovered spin Nernst effect in heavy metals continues to enrich the picture of Nernst eff
ect-related phenomena. However, the collection would not be complete without mentioning the valley degree of freedom benchmarked by the observation of the valley Hall effect. Here we show the experimental evidence of its missing counterpart, the valley Nernst effect. Using millimeter-sized WSe$_{2}$ mono-multi-layers and the ferromagnetic resonance-spin pumping technique, we are able to apply a temperature gradient by off-centering the sample in the radio frequency cavity and address a single valley through spin-valley coupling. The combination of a temperature gradient and the valley polarization leads to the valley Nernst effect in WSe$_{2}$ that we detect electrically at room temperature. The valley Nernst coefficient is in very good agreement with the predicted value.
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.
