SPECIAL SEMINAR: Interlayer exciton phase transitions in atomically thin semiconductors
Semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), when reduced to the two-dimensional (2D) limit, exhibit extraordinary excitonic effects that serve as a versatile platform for optoelectronic studies. Interlayer excitons, where the electron and hole are in separate layers, form dipolar composite bosons across the atomically-thin type-II heterostructures and offer a rich phase diagram for these interacting excitations. Here, we fabricate high-quality TMD heterostructure devices that allow us to have electrical control of interlayer excitons.
