内容简介:

Transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) monolayersexhibit intriguing fundamental physics of strongly coupled spin and valley degrees of freedom for charge carriers. It is possible to selectively address and read out the valley index optically by helicity-resolved measurements. Hence the spin-locked valley degree-of-freedom has been proposed as classical and quantum information carriers. However, the use of valley excitonic states of TMDC monolayer to store and manipulate information is hampered by fast carrier recombination and short valley lifetime. We propose theoretically a scheme to overcome such an obstacle, by applying a tilted exchange field through magnetic proximity effect in monolayer MoS2 deposited on a ferromagnetic insulating substrate. While the in-plane component of the exchange field brightens the dark exciton by spin mixing, the out-of-plane field can effectively gate the emission with an ON/OFF ratio around 3000. Importantly, the brightening is valley selective, leading to nearly 100% valley/spin polarization at room temperature. The resulting strongly gateable dark-exciton emission with long lifetime and near unity valley polarization makes it convenient to manipulate the valley degree of freedom, which may serve as a novelparadigm for valleytronics and optoelectronics applications.
