Exciton condensates (EC) are macroscopic coherent states arising from condensation of electron-hole pairs. Bilayer heterostructures, consisting of two-dimensional electron and hole layers separated by a tunnel barrier, provide a versatile platform to realize and study EC. The tunnel barrier suppresses recombination yielding long-lived excitons. However, this separation also reduces interlayer Coulomb interactions, limiting the exciton binding strength. Here, we report the observation of EC in naturally occurring 2H-stacked bilayer WSe$_2$. In this system, the intrinsic spin-valley structure suppresses interlayer tunneling even when the separation is reduced to the atomic limit, providing access to a previously unattainable regime of strong interlayer coupling. Using capacitance spectroscopy, we investigate magneto-EC, formed when partially filled Landau levels (LL) couple between the layers. We find that the strong-coupling EC show dramatically different behaviour compared with previous reports, including an unanticipated variation of the EC robustness with the orbital number, and find evidence for a transition between two types of low-energy charged excitations. Our results provide a demonstration of tuning EC properties by varying the constituent single-particle wavefunctions.
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-dimension
Spin-orbit coupling in graphene can be increased far beyond its intrinsic value by proximity coupling to a transition metal dichalcogenide. In bilayer graphene, this effect was predicted to depend on the occupancy of both graphene layers, rendering i
Exciton condensation in an electron-hole bilayer system of monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides is analyzed at three different levels of theory to account for screening and quasiparticle renormalization. The large effective masses of the transi
Transition metal dichalcogenide heterobilayers offer attractive opportunities to realize lattices of interacting bosons with several degrees of freedom. Such heterobilayers can feature moire patterns that modulate their electronic band structure, lea
Due to high binding energy and oscillator strength, excitons in thin flakes of transition metal dichalcogenides constitute a perfect foundation for realizing a strongly coupled light-matter system. In this paper we investigate mono- and few-layer WSe
