摘要:

提升单层过渡金属二硫属化物(TMD)的谷简并度将允许对谷自由度的通用控制。我们报告了一个巨大的谷激子分裂为18 meV/T的单层WS 2,使用邻近效应从铁磁EuS衬底,这是增强了近两个数量级从0.2 meV/T通过外部磁场获得。更有趣的是,观察到的谷激子分裂的符号反转相比,在EuS上的WSe 2。利用第一性原理计算,我们研究了TMDs与EuS之间交换作用的复杂行为,这与塞曼效应有本质的不同.符号反转是由于竞争的铁磁(FM)和反铁磁(AFM)交换相互作用的Eu和S-终止EuS表面网站。与WSe 2相比,它们对WS 2的导带和价带的作用不同。调谐谷激子分裂的符号和幅度提供了用于量子信息处理的谷赝自旋的通用控制的机会。

英文摘要:

Lifting the valley degeneracy of monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMD) would allow versatile control of the valley degree of freedom. We report a giant valley exciton splitting of 18 meV/T for monolayer WS2, using the proximity effect from a ferromagnetic EuS substrate, which is enhanced by nearly two orders of magnitude from the 0.2 meV/T obtained by an external magnetic field. More interestingly, a sign reversal of the valley exciton splitting is observed as compared to that of WSe2 on EuS. Using first principles calculations, we investigate the complex behavior of exchange interactions between TMDs and EuS, that is qualitatively different from the Zeeman effect. The sign reversal is attributed to competing ferromagnetic (FM) and antiferromagnetic (AFM) exchange interactions for Eu- and S- terminated EuS surface sites. They act differently on the conduction and valence bands of WS2 compared to WSe2. Tuning the sign and magnitude of the valley exciton splitting offers opportunities for versatile control of valley pseudospin for quantum information processing.
