摘要:

我们应用微观理论的激子极化激元在腔限制的单层过渡金属dichalcogenides,包括在单层平面中的光学偏振,允许描述如何手性腔光子相互作用的谷自由度的活性物质。极化激元形成后,居住在两个不等价的山谷的简并激子假设成键和反键叠加作为腔介导的intravalley相互作用结合谷间库仑相互作用的结果。这是谷极化的极化激元诱导的相干混合的代表。与无序相结合,这种混合倾向于打开一个新的谷弛豫通道,其随着腔耦合的增加而变得重要。重要的是,我们表明,光学腔的左,右手圆偏振光子的非对称反射提供了一个相当强大的平台,实现保守的谷偏振,作为谷本地化的激子恢复了一个不对称拉比分裂,提升其简并性。此外,我们显示这种简并提升允许波长选择性访问谷赝自旋通过极化激元诱导的手征斯塔克效应,提供有趣的机会valleytronic应用。

英文摘要:

We apply a microscopic theory of exciton-polaritons in cavity-confined monolayer transition-metal dichalcogenides including both optical polarizations in the monolayer plane, allowing to describe how chiral cavity photons interact with the valley degrees of freedom of the active material. Upon polariton formation, the degenerate excitons inhabiting the two inequivalent valleys are shown to assume bonding and antibonding superpositions as a result of cavity-mediated intravalley interactions combined with intervalley Coulomb interactions. This is representative of a polariton-induced coherent mixing of the valley polarization. In combination with disorder, this mixing is prone to open a new valley relaxation channel which attains significance with increasing cavity coupling. Importantly, we show that optical cavities with an asymmetric reflectance of left- and right-handed circularly-polarized photons offer a considerably more robust platform to realize a conserved valley polarization, as the valley localization of excitons is reinstated by an asymmetric Rabi splitting which lifts their degeneracy. Moreover, we show this degeneracy lifting to allow for wavelength-selective access to the valley pseudospin by means of a polariton-induced chiral Stark effect, offering interesting opportunities for valleytronic applications.
