Extended Spatial Coherence of Interlayer Excitons in MoSe2/WSe2 Heterobilayers

Résumé fourni par la source

We report on the spatial coherence of interlayer exciton ensembles as formed in MoSe_{2}/WSe_{2} heterostructures and characterized by point-inversion Michelson-Morley interferometry. Below 10 K, the measured spatial coherence length of the interlayer excitons reaches values equivalent to the lateral expansion of the exciton ensembles. In this regime, the light emission of the excitons turns out to be homogeneously broadened in energy with a high temporal coherence. At higher temperatures, both the spatial coherence length and the temporal coherence time decrease, most likely because of thermal processes. The presented findings point towards a spatially extended, coherent many-body state of interlayer excitons at low temperature.
