Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) are a fascinating new class of semiconductors, which attracted a lot of interest in the past few years. They are promising materials for new optical and electronic devices on the nanoscale. Here, we focus on one of the less studied members of this group: ReSe2. In contrast to other TMDCs, it grows in a distorted 1T structure, which leads to new anisotropic properties.
We present electronic and excitonic spectra for both monolayer and bulk ReSe2 within many-body perturbation theory (MBPT). For this, we apply the GW-BSE (Bethe-Salpeter equation) approach within the efficient LDA+GdW approximation [1]. Our results on the quasiparticle band structure are complemented with experimental ARPES data. Based on the band structure we investigate the excitons. The lowest four states show distinct dipolar characteristics, which is in contrast to many other TMDCs.
