Excitons are known to dominate optical properties of semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) both for monolayers and heterostructures. While excitons can also propagate across large distances due to the two-dimensional nature of the system, their behavior remains highly sensitive to local environmental inhomogeneities. In our work, we take advantage of material encapsulation in high-quality hexagonal boron nitride to study inherent exciton propagation unobscured by disorder. Using spatially- and time-resolved photoluminescence microscopy we find highly efficient linear diffusion and pronounced non-linear phenomena. In order to explain our findings we employ a combination of numerical and analytical approaches, discuss the role of dark states as well as non-radiative exciton-exciton scattering and present a mechanism for rapid diffusion facilitated by free electron-hole plasma.
