Abstract We studied the optical signature of bipolaron and its effects on the bandgap modulation in the single-layer Transition Metal Dichalcogenides (TMDs) under magnetic field. Using the Huybrecht method, we derived the ground state energies in the modified zero Landau levels for all Fröhlich coupling constants. We take into account both intrinsic longitudinal optical phonon modes and surface optical phonon modes induced by the polar substrate. We observed that the higher the coupling strength, the stronger is the magnetic field effect. The highest amplitude of the bandgap modulation is obtained for the MoS2 monolayer and the lowest with the WSe2 monolayer. We also found that the bipolaron is stable in TMDs. It is seen that the optical absorption presents the threshold values and respectively increases for WSe2, MoSe2, WS2 and MoS2.

Abstract The optical properties of monolayer and bilayer transition metal dichalcogenide semiconductors are governed by excitons in different spin and valley configurations, providing versatile aspects for van der Waals heterostructures and devices. Here, we present experimental and theoretical studies of exciton energy splittings in external magnetic field in neutral and charged WSe2 monolayer and bilayer crystals embedded in a field effect device for active doping control. We develop theoretical methods to calculate the exciton g-factors from first principles for all possible spin-valley configurations of excitons in monolayer and bilayer WSe2 including valley-indirect excitons. Our theoretical and experimental findings shed light on some of the characteristic photoluminescence peaks observed for monolayer and bilayer WSe2. In more general terms, the theoretical aspects of our work provide additional means for the characterization of single and few-layer transition metal dichalcogenides, as well as their heterostructures, in the presence of external magnetic fields.
