The remarkable optical properties of monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) are determined by strongly bound excitons. Currently, most of the micro-photoluminescence measurements are performed with light polarized in the plane of the TMDC layer. However, so-called dark excitons that emit z-polarized light propagating along the TMDC layer require detection from the side [1, 2].
Our intention is to probe TMDCs in this direction by depositing them onto a fused silica glass substrate containing femtosecond laser direct written waveguides [3]. By defining the waveguide near the surface of the glass, interactions of the waveguide’s evanescent field and the TMDC are enabled.
Our micro-photoluminescence setup that couples into the waveguides and simultaneously detects light perpendicular to the TMDC layer has the potential to excite and detect the x,y and z polarization of the PL signal, allowing for direct observations of dark excitons.
