Inversion-symmetric crystals are optically isotropic and thus naively not expected to show dichroism effects in optical absorption and photoemission processes. Here, we find a strong linear dichroism effect (up to 42.4%) in the conduction…
We report ab initio calculations of the dielectric function of six mono- and bilayer molybdenum dichalcogenides based in a Bethe Salpether equation+G$_0$W$_0$ ansatz, focussing on the excitonic transitions dominating the absorption spectrum…
Transition metal dichalcogenides have attracted much attention recently due to their potential applications in spintronics and photonics as a result of the indirect to direct band gap transition and the emergence of the spin-valley coupling…
The wave-like nature of electrons is evident from quantum interference effects observed during the photoemission process. When there are different nuclei in the unit cell of a crystal and/or structural distortions, photo-electron…
The photoluminescence (PL) in monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) is dominated by recombination of electrons in the conduction band with holes in the spin-orbit split valence bands, and there are two distinct emission features…
The optical and electronic properties of multilayer transition metal dichalcogenides differ significantly from their monolayer counterparts due to interlayer interactions. The separation of individual layers can be tuned in a controlled way…
We have carried out extensive simulations of the angle-resolved photoemission (ARPES) intensity in Bi2212 within the one-step and three-step type models using a first-principles band theory framework. The focus is on understanding the…
Within a two-band $k\cdot p$ method we analyze different types of strain for the $K$ valley optical characteristics of a freestanding monolayer MoS$_2$, MoSe$_2$, WS$_2$ and WSe$_2$. We predict that circular polarization selectivity for…
Monolayers of transition-metal dichalcogenides have shown that uniaxial strain changes both the photoluminescence emission energy and intensity. The changes are attributed to the band-structure evolution under tensile strain where both the…
Atomically thin transition metal dichalcogenides have emerged as promising candidates for sensitive photodetection. Here, we report a photoconductivity study of biased mono- and bilayer molybdenum disulfide field-effect transistors. We…
Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides are promising materials for valleytronic operations. They exhibit two inequivalent valleys in the Brillouin zone, and the valley populations can be directly controlled and determined using…
Coulomb bound electron-hole pairs, excitons, govern the optical properties of semi-conducting transition metal dichalcogenides like MoS$_2$ and WSe$_2$. We study optical transitions at the K-point for 2H homobilayer MoS$_2$ in Density…
The illumination of a single-layer transition metal dichalcogenide with an elliptically-polarized light beam is shown to give rise to a differential rate of inter-band carrier excitation between the valence and conduction states around the…
Strong field photoemission and electron recollision provide a viable route to extract electronic and nuclear dynamics from molecular targets with attosecond temporal resolution. However, since an {\em ab-initio} treatment of even the…
The bulk photovoltaic effect in noncentrosymmetric materials is an intriguing physical phenomenon that holds potential for high-efficiency energy harvesting. Here, we study the shift current bulk photovoltaic effect in the transition metal…
Recent results on the optical properties of mono- and few-layers of semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides are reviewed. Experimental observations are presented and discussed in the frame of existing models, highlighting the limits…
Monolayers of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) exhibit bright photoluminescence, a desirable property for light-emitting diodes and single-photon emitters. Because the emission intensity is heavily influenced by factors such as…
The van der Waals coefficients and the separation dependent retardation functions of the interactions between the atomically thin films of the multi-layered transition metal molybdenum disulfide (MoS$_2$) dichalcogenides with the alkali…
Time- and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy accesses the ultrafast evolution of quasiparticles and many-body interactions in solid-state systems. However, the momentum- and energy-resolved transient photoemission intensity may not…
