The exciton binding energy and the quasiparticle bandgap in two dimensional semiconductors depend on their dielectric environment.

We investigate the screening of Coulomb interactions in heterostructures of WS2 and graphene, separated through thin spacer layers of hexagonal boron nitride (hBN). By using hBN spacers from one to 16 atomic layers, we experimentally determine the tuning of the exciton binding energy and the quasiparticle bandgap as a function of the WS2-to-graphene interlayer spacing.

This change in both energies is well described by a one over distance dependence, which is consistent with a screening arising from an image charge induced by the graphene layer.

Additionally, by doping the graphene with a graphitic back gate, we show that the ability of the graphene to screen Coulomb interactions in neighbouring layers is strongly modified. We determine the change in screening strength to be approximately 20% at room temperature, demonstrating that Coulomb-interactions in WS2 can be modified in-situ without changing the doping level of the material itself.
