Due to a strong Coulomb interaction, excitons dominate the excitation kinetics in 2D materials. While Coulomb-scattering between electrons has been well studied, the interaction of excitons is more challenging and remains to be explored. As…
The existence of strongly bound excitons is one of the hallmarks of the newly discovered atomically thin semi-conductors. While it is understood that the large binding energy is mainly due to the weak dielectric screening in two dimensions…
Exciton-exciton interactions are key to understanding non-linear optical and transport phenomena in van der Waals heterobilayers, which emerged as versatile platforms to study correlated electronic states. We present a combined…
We predict angle-dependent superfluidity for a new class of 2D materials -- transition metals trichalcogenides (TMTC). Within a mean-field approach superfluidity of indirect excitons in TMTC van der Waals heterostructures (vdWHs) is…
Excitons in monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) dominate their optical response due to exceptionally large binding energies arising from their two-dimensional nature. Several theoretical models have been proposed to describe…
Heterostructures of atomically thin van der Waals bonded monolayers have opened a unique platform to engineer Coulomb correlations, shaping excitonic, Mott insulating, or superconducting phases. In transition metal dichalcogenide…
Excitonic condensate has been long-sought within bulk indirect-gap semiconductors, quantum wells, and 2D material layers, all tried as carrying media. Here we propose intrinsically stable 2D semiconductor heterostructures with…
The functional form of Coulomb interactions in the transition metal dichalcogenides and other van der Waals solids is critical to many of their unique properties, e.g. strongly-correlated electron states, superconductivity and emergent…
Exciton binding energies of hundreds of meV and strong light absorption in the optical frequency range make transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) promising for novel optoelectronic nanodevices. In particular, atomically thin TMDs can be…
We present a generalized hydrogen model for the binding energies ($E_B$) of excitons in two-dimensional (2D) materials that sheds light on the fundamental differences between excitons in two and three dimensions. In contrast to the…
Heterostructures of van der Waals bonded layered materials offer unique means to tailor dielectric screening with atomic-layer precision, opening a fertile field of fundamental research. The optical analyses used so far have relied on…
Two-dimensional (2D) materials and their heterostructures have been intensively studied in recent years due to their potential applications in electronic, optoelectronic, and spintronic devices. Nonetheless, the realization of 2D…
We explore a new platform for realising excitonic insulators, namely van der Waals (vdW) bilayers comprising 2D Janus materials. In previous studies, Type-II heterobilayers have been brought to the excitonic insulating regime by tuning the…
Excitons dominate the optics of atomically-thin transition metal dichalcogenides and 2D van der Waals heterostructures. Interlayer 2D excitons, with an electron and a hole residing in different layers, form rapidly in heterostructures…
Even if individual two-dimensional materials own various interesting and unexpected properties, the stacking of such layers leads to van der Waals solids which unite the characteristics of two dimensions with novel features originating from…
The problem of screening the Coulomb interaction between charge carriers in type II heterostructures based on transition metal dichalcogenides is Analytically solved. At a sufficiently high density of charge carriers, the density dependence…
The electronic and optical properties of monolayer transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) and van der Waals heterostructures are strongly subject to their dielectric environment. In each layer the field lines of the Coulomb interaction are…
External fields are a powerful tool to probe optical excitations in a material. The linear energy shift of an excitation in a magnetic field is quantified by its effective g-factor. Here we show how exciton g-factors and their sign can be…
Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (1L-TMDs) have tremendous potential as atomically thin, direct bandgap semiconductors that can be used as convenient building blocks for quantum photonic devices. However, the short exciton…
The control of elastic and inelastic electron tunneling relies on materials with well defined interfaces. Van der Waals materials made of two-dimensional constituents form an ideal platform for such studies. Signatures of acoustic phonons…
