Effect of distance on photoluminescence quenching and proximity-induced spin-orbit coupling in graphene-WSe2 heterostructures

Bowen Yang, Everardo Molina, Jeongwoo Kim +9

Spin-orbit coupling (SOC) in graphene can be greatly enhanced by proximity coupling it to transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) such as WSe2. We find that the strength of the acq…
