  1. 1. Optical properties of point defects in insulators and of transition metal dichalcogenides

    Author : Christopher Linderälv; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; luminescence quenching; charge transition levels; excitons; transition metal dichalcogenides; monolayer alloys; solid state lighting; color centers; oxygen vacancies; moiré structures; wide band gap oxides;

    Abstract : There is a need for new or modified materials, both to improve current devices and to create novel functionalities. Engineering materials to target specific functionalities requires a better understanding of how microscopic processes impact materials properties. READ MORE

    Author : Shaozheng Ji; Jonas Weissenrieder; James Gardner; Oscar Tjernberg; Fabrizio Carbone; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ultrafast electron microscope; coherent shear phonon; photo-induced phase transition; 1T-TaSe2; Td-WTe2; charge density wave; ultrasnabbt elektronmikroskop; koherent skjuvphonon; fotoinducerad fasövergång; 1T-TaSe2; Td-WTe2; laddningsdensitetsvåg; Material and Nano Physics; Material- och nanofysik;

    Abstract : Ultrafast electron microscope (UEM), a combination of transmission electron microscopy and laser-based pump-probe techniques, facilitates ultrafast imaging, diffraction, and electron-spectroscopy with high spatial resolution. The unique advantages of UEM enable local ultrafast dynamic studies in materials, nano-system, and biology. READ MORE

  3. 3. Out of the Dark and into the Light - Microscopic Analysis of Bright, Dark and Trapped Excitons

    Author : Maja Feierabend; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; density matrix formalism; localized states; impurities; dark excitons; strain; transition metal dichalcogenides; Bloch equations;

    Abstract : Atomically thin transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have been in the focus of current research due to their efficient light-matter interaction, as well as the remarkably strong Coulomb interaction that leads to tightly bound excitons. Due to their unique band structure, TMDs show a variety of optically accessible bright and inaccessible dark excitons. READ MORE

  4. 4. Quantum Theory of Exciton-Exciton Interactions in Atomically Thin Semiconductors

    Author : Daniel Erkensten; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; excitons; transition-metal dichalcogenides; many-body theory; van der Waals heterostructures; 2D materials;

    Abstract : Atomically thin materials such as transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have emerged as an unprecedented platform for engineering future optoelectronic devices and studying exotic quantum phases of matter. In particular, the strong Coulomb interaction in these materials enables the formation of tightly-bound excitons, electron-hole pairs with neither purely fermionic nor bosonic character. READ MORE

  5. 5. Microscopic Theory of Externally Tunable Exciton Signatures of Two-Dimensional Materials

    Author : Maja Feierabend; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; localized states; density matrix formalism; magnetic field; transition metal dichalcogenides; Bloch equations; organic inorganic heterostructures; dark excitons; strain;

    Abstract : Atomically thin transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are in the focus of current research due to their efficient light-matter interaction and the remarkably strong Coulomb interaction that leads to tightly bound excitons. Due to their unique band structure, TMDs show a variety of bright and optically inaccessible dark excitonic states. READ MORE
