研究目的
Investigating the room temperature valley polarization and coherence in transition metal dichalcogenide-graphene van der Waals heterostructures for opto-electronic, -spintronic, and -valleytronic applications.
研究成果
The study demonstrates robust room temperature valley polarization and coherence in monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides interfaced with graphene, despite photoluminescence quenching. These findings are significant for the development of chiral light emitters and opto-valleytronic devices. The use of Mueller polarimetry provides artifact-free measurements of valley contrasting properties, advancing the field beyond traditional polarimetry methods.
研究不足
The study is limited by the significant PL quenching and short exciton lifetimes in TMD/graphene heterostructures, which may affect the efficiency of optoelectronic devices. Additionally, the microscopic mechanisms of valley depolarization and decoherence, especially in MoSe2, are not fully understood.
