Trions -- Coulomb-bound three-particle excitations composed of two like-charge carriers and one oppositely charged carrier -- are central quasiparticles in two-dimensional semiconductors. Reduced dielectric screening and quantum confinement…
The anisotropic nature of the new two-dimensional (2D) material phosphorene, in contrast to other 2D materials such as graphene and transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) semiconductors, allows excitons to be confined in a…
Exciton spectroscopy serves as a sensitive probe of electronic states in two-dimensional semiconductors. A prominent feature in optical spectra is the trion peak arising from the binding of a charge carrier to an exciton. The splitting…
Monolayer group VI transition metal dichalcogenides have recently emerged as semiconducting alternatives to graphene in which the true two-dimensionality (2D) is expected to illuminate new semiconducting physics. Here we investigate…
Excitons in transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have emerged as a promising platform for novel applications ranging from optoelectronic devices to quantum optics and solid state quantum simulators. While much progress has been made…
In a three-dimensional strong topological insulator, gapless helical surface states appear everywhere on its surface. In the presence of a screw dislocation, gapless helical modes also appear in the vicinity of the corresponding dislocation…
Based on first-principles calculations and symmetry analysis, we predict atomically thin ($1-N$ layers) 2H group-VIB TMDs $MX_2$ ($M$ = Mo, W; $X$ = S, Se, Te) are large-gap higher-order topological crystalline insulators protected by $C_3$…
Highly nonlinear optical materials with strong effective photon-photon interactions (Kerr-like nonlinearity) are required in the development of novel quantum sources of light as well as for ultrafast and quantum optical signal processing…
We present a systematic theoretical study on the structural and electronic properties of twisted trilayer transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) WSe$_2$, where two independent moir\'e patterns form between adjacent layers. Using a continuum…

Several monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are direct band gap semiconductors and potentially efficient emitters in light emitting devices. Photons are emitted when strongly bound excitons decay radiatively, and accurate…
Excitons are composite bosons that can feature spin singlet and triplet states. In usual semiconductors, without an additional spin-flip mechanism, triplet excitons are extremely inefficient optical emitters. Large spin-orbit coupling in…
Recent experimental progress has established the twisted bilayer transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) as a highly tunable platform for studying many-body physics. Particularly, the homobilayer TMDs under displacement field are believed to…
Monolayer transition-metal dichalcogenide (TMD) semiconductors exhibit strong excitonic effects and hold promise for optical and optoelectronic applications. Yet, electron doping of TMDs leads to the conversion of neutral excitons into…
Controllable topological phase transitions are appealing as they allow for tunable single particle electronic properties. Here, by using state-of-the-art manybody perturbation theory techniques, we show that the topological $Z_2$ phase…
Twisted transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) bilayers exhibit periodic moir\'e potentials, which can trap excitons at certain high-symmetry sites. At small twist angles, TMD lattices undergo an atomic reconstruction, altering the moir\'e…
Systems that simultaneously exhibit superconductivity and spin-orbit coupling are predicted to provide a route toward topological superconductivity and unconventional electron pairing, driving significant contemporary interest in these…
A family of semiconductors called as Chern band insulator are shown to host exciton bands with non-zero topological Chern integers and chiral exciton edge modes. Using a prototypical two-band Chern insulator model, we calculate a…
