In bilayers of two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors with stacking arrangements which lack inversion symmetry charge transfer between the layers due to layer-asymmetric interband hybridisation can generate a potential difference between the layers. We analyse bilayers of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) - in particular, WSe$_2$ - for which we find a substantial stacking-dependent charge transfer, and InSe, for which the charge transfer is found to be negligibly small. The information obtained about TMDs is then used to map potentials generated by the interlayer charge transfer across the moire superlattice in twistronic bilayers.

We investigate near-field energy transfer between chemically synthesized quantum dots (QDs) and two-dimensional semiconductors. We fabricate devices in which electrostatically gated semiconducting monolayer molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) is placed atop
a homogenous self-assembled layer of core-shell CdSSe QDs. We demonstrate efficient non-radiative Forster resonant energy transfer (FRET) from QDs into MoS2 and prove that modest gate-induced variation in the excitonic absorption of MoS2 lead to large (~500%) changes in the FRET rate. This, in turn, allows for up to ~75% electrical modulation of QD photoluminescence intensity. The hybrid QD/MoS2 devices operate within a small voltage range, allow for continuous modification of the QD photoluminescence intensity, and can be used for selective tuning of QDs emitting in the visible-IR range.
Reliable and precise measurements of the relative energy of band edges in semiconductors are needed to determine band gaps and band offsets, as well as to establish the band diagram of devices and heterostructures. These measurements are particularly
important in the field of two-dimensional materials, in which many new semiconducting systems are becoming available through exfoliation of bulk crystals. For two-dimensional semiconductors, however, commonly employed techniques suffer from difficulties rooted either in the physics of these systems, or of technical nature. The very large exciton binding energy, for instance, prevents the band gap to be determined from a simple spectral analysis of photoluminescence, and the limited lateral size of atomically thin crystals makes the use of conventional scanning tunneling spectroscopy cumbersome. Ionic gate spectroscopy is a newly developed technique that exploits ionic gate field-effect transistors to determine quantitatively the relative alignment of band edges of two-dimensional semiconductors in a straightforward way, directly from transport measurements (i.e., from the transistor electrical characteristics). The technique relies on the extremely large geometrical capacitance of ionic gated devices that -- under suitable conditions -- enables a change in gate voltage to be directly related to a shift in chemical potential. Here we present an overview of ionic gate spectroscopy, and illustrate its relevance with applications to different two-dimensional semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides and van der Waals heterostructures.
The ability to control the size of the electronic bandgap is an integral part of solid-state technology. Atomically-thin two-dimensional crystals offer a new approach for tuning the energies of the electronic states based on the interplay between the
environmental sensitivity and unusual strength of the Coulomb interaction in these materials. By engineering the surrounding dielectric environment, we are able to tune the electronic bandgap in monolayers of WS2 and WSe2 by hundreds of meV. We exploit this behavior to present an in-plane dielectric heterostructure with a spatially dependent bandgap, illustrating the feasibility of our approach for the creation of lateral junctions with nanoscale resolution. This successful demonstration of bandgap engineering based on the non-invasive modification of the Coulomb interaction should enable the design of a new class of atomically thin devices to advance the limits of size and functionality for solid-state technologies.
We investigate the spin-to-charge conversion emerging from a mesoscopic device connected to multiple terminals. We obtain analytical expressions to the characteristic coefficient of spin-to-charge conversion which are applied in two kinds of ballisti
c chaotic quantum dots at low temperature. We perform analytical diagrammatic calculations in the universal regime for two-dimensional electron gas and single-layer graphene with strong spin-orbit interaction in the universal regime. Furthermore, our analytical results are confirmed by numerical simulations. Finally, we connect our analytical finds to recent experimental measures giving a conceptual explanation about the apparent discrepancies between them.
Twisted heterostructures of two-dimensional crystals offer almost unlimited scope for the design of novel metamaterials. Here we demonstrate a room-temperature ferroelectric semiconductor that is assembled using mono- or few- layer MoS2. These van de
r Waals heterostructures feature broken inversion symmetry, which, together with the asymmetry of atomic arrangement at the interface of two 2D crystals, enables ferroelectric domains with alternating out-of-plane polarisation arranged into a twist-controlled network. The latter can be moved by applying out-of-plane electrical fields, as visualized in situ using channelling contrast electron microscopy. The interfacial charge transfer for the observed ferroelectric domains is quantified using Kelvin probe force microscopy and agrees well with theoretical calculations. The movement of domain walls and their bending rigidity also agrees well with our modelling results. Furthermore, we demonstrate proof-of-principle field-effect transistors, where the channel resistance exhibits a pronounced hysteresis governed by pinning of ferroelectric domain walls. Our results show a potential venue towards room temperature electronic and optoelectronic semiconductor devices with built-in ferroelectric memory functions.
