Molybdenum dichalcogenides are probably the most studied single layer TMDCs by virtue of being appealing for sundry possible applications suchlike transistors, diodes, solar cells or more fundamental studies of spin or valley pseudospin and their interactions. Tungsten-based counterparts are on the other hand evincing much stronger spin-orbit coupling due to which all the spin-related effects are more stable at room temperature and thus more feasible for application. We have conducted several experiments following the evolution of the spin texture near the X, Y, K and M points of the Brillouin zone (WTe2 and WSe2 respectively) which is substantial for understanding the fundamental properties of the structure-property relation of the system. Ab-initio set of photoemission calculations was also performed using SPR-KKR package. Furthermore, TR-SARPES studies will be carried out by the group on such materials to determine the ultrafast dynamics of the carrier density and to disentangle the subsequent relaxation processes using pump-probe experiments.
