Spin-Layer Locking Effects in Optical Orientation of Exciton Spin in Bilayer WSe2
Aaron M. Jones, Hongyi Yu, Jason S. Ross +6
Coupling degrees of freedom of distinct nature plays a critical role in numerous physical phenomena. The recent emergence of layered materials provides a laboratory for studying th…
Optical Generation of Excitonic Valley Coherence in Monolayer WSe2
Aaron Mitchell Jones, Hongyi Yu, Nirmal Ghimire +9
Due to degeneracies arising from crystal symmetries, it is possible for electron states at band edges ("valleys") to have additional spin-like quantum numbers. An important questio…
Magnetoelectric effects and valley controlled spin quantum gates in transition metal dichalcogenide bilayers
Zhirui Gong, Gui-Bin Liu, Hongyi Yu +4
In monolayer group-VI transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDC), charge carriers have spin and valley degrees of freedom, both associated with magnetic moments. On the other hand, th…
