<i>Magneto Photoluminescence Measurements in Transition Metal Dichalcogenides on a Magnetic Substrate, YIG</i>
ORAL
Abstract
It is theoretically predicted that the valley degeneracy in transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) can be removed using relatively small magnetic fields if the film is on a magnetic substrate [1], [2]. Recent experiments demonstrate the proximity-induced exchange splitting in monolayer TMDs on magnetic substrates such as EuS [3] and CrI3 [4]. We report systematic magneto-optical measurements on a TMD film that is grown on the magnetic substrate YIG (yttrium iron garnet). We perform photoluminescence (PL) measurements using a visible laser (Epump = 2.33 eV) as a function of magnetic fields up to 7T at 10K. We observe an enhanced magnetic field dependence of the PL peak splitting of 0.42 meV/T for the charged exciton, compared to a smaller splitting with SiO2 substrates of 0.1~0.2 meV/T. We observe a linear magnetic field dependence of the PL polarization and PL peak positions of the neutral exciton, charged exciton and local states.
