Laser-field detuning assisted optimization of exciton valley dynamics in monolayer WSe${}_2$: Geometric quantum speed limit

Abstract

Optimizing valley dynamics is an effective instrument towards precisely manipulating qubit in the context of two-dimensional semiconductor. In this work, we construct a comprehensive model, involving both intra- and intervalley channels of excitons in monolayer WSe${}_2$, and simultaneously takes the light-matter interaction into account, to investigate the optimal control of valley dynamics with an initial coherent excitonic state. Based on the quantum speed limit (QSL) theory, we propose two optimal control schemes aiming to reduce the evolution time of valley dynamics reaching the target state, along with to boost the evolution speed over a period of time. Further, we emphasize that the implementation of dynamical optimization is closely related to the detuning difference -- the difference of exciton-laser field detunings between the K and K' valleys -- which is determined by the optical excitation mode and magnetically-induced valley splitting. In particular, we reveal that a small detuning difference drives the actual dynamical path to converge towards the geodesic length between the initial and final states, allowing the system to evolve with the least time. Especially, in the presence of valley coherence, the actual evolution time and the calculated QSL time almost coincide, facilitating high fidelity in information transmission based on the valley qubit. Remarkably, we demonstrate an intriguing enhancement in evolution speed of valley dynamics, by adopting a large detuning difference, which induces an emerging valley polarization even without initial polarization. Our work opens a new paradigm for optically tuning excitonic physics in valleytronic applications, and may also offer solutions to some urgent problems such as speed limit of information transmission in qubit.
