The dynamics of exciton formation in transition metal dichalcogenides is difficult to measure experimentally, since many momentum-indirect exciton states are not accessible to optical interband spectroscopy. Here, we combine a tuneable pump, high-harmonic probe laser source with a 3D momentum imaging technique to map photoemitted electrons from monolayer WS$_2$. This provides momentum-, energy- and time-resolved access to excited states on an ultrafast timescale. The high temporal resolution of the setup allows us to trace the early-stage exciton dynamics on its intrinsic timescale and observe the formation of a momentum-forbidden dark K$Sigma$ exciton a few tens of femtoseconds after optical excitation. By tuning the excitation energy we manipulate the temporal evolution of the coherent excitonic polarization and observe its influence on the dark exciton formation. The experimental results are in excellent agreement with a fully microscopic theory, resolving the temporal and spectral dynamics of bright and dark excitons in WS$_2$.

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.
In monolayer semiconductor transition metal dichalcogenides, the exciton-phonon interaction is expected to strongly affect the photocarrier dynamics. Here, we report on an unusual oscillatory enhancement of the neutral exciton photoluminescence with
the excitation laser frequency in monolayer MoSe2. The frequency of oscillation matches that of the M-point longitudinal acoustic phonon, LA(M). Oscillatory behavior is also observed in the steady-state emission linewidth and in timeresolved photoluminescence excitation data, which reveals variation with excitation energy in the exciton lifetime. These results clearly expose the key role played by phonons in the exciton formation and relaxation dynamics of two-dimensional van der Waals semiconductors.
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.
We discuss here the effect of band nesting and topology on the spectrum of excitons in a single layer of MoS$_2$, a prototype transition metal dichalcogenide material. We solve for the single particle states using the ab initio based tight-binding mo
del containing metal $d$ and sulfur $p$ orbitals. The metal orbitals contribution evolving from $K$ to $Gamma$ points results in conduction-valence band nesting and a set of second minima at $Q$ points in the conduction band. There are three $Q$ minima for each $K$ valley. We accurately solve the Bethe-Salpeter equation including both $K$ and $Q$ points and obtain ground and excited exciton states. We determine the effects of the electron-hole single particle energies including band nesting, direct and exchange screened Coulomb electron-hole interactions and resulting topological magnetic moments on the exciton spectrum. The ability to control different contributions combined with accurate calculations of the ground and excited exciton states allows for the determination of the importance of different contributions and a comparison with effective mass and $kcdot p$ massive Dirac fermion models.
The continuous scaling of semiconductor technology has pushed the footprint of logic devices below 50 nm. Currently, logic standard cells with one single fin are being investigated to increase the integration density, although such options could seve
rely limit the performance of individual devices. In this letter, we present a novel Trench (T-) FinFET device, composed of a monolayer two-dimensional (2D) channel material. The device characteristics of a monolayer WS$_2$-based T-FinFET are studied by combining the first-principles calculations and quantum transport (QT) simulations. These results serve as inputs to a predictive analytical model. The latter allows to benchmark the T-FinFET with strained (s)-Si FinFETs in both quasi-ballistic and diffusive transport regimes. The circuit-level evaluation highlights that WS$_2$ T-FinFETs exhibit a competitive energy-delay performance compared to s-Si FinFET and WS$_2$ double-gate transistors, assuming the same mobility and contact resistivity at small footprints.
