High-pressure diamond anvil cells (DACs) are a recent addition to the toolkit for investigating two-dimensional materials and their heterostructures. They can exert compressive strain to samples, allowing precise manipulation of interlayer coupling strength in multi-layered van der Waals materials. Here, we present pressure-dependent optical transmission spectra of 2H-MoS₂ bilayers under pressure and extract the respective energy shift rates of inter- and intralayer excitons. Additionally, our findings highlight an interesting observation: the actual deformation of the sample differs from hydrostatic compression due to substrate effects. We discuss strategies to address this common challenge encountered in high-pressure experiments on 2D materials in conjunction with complementary DFT-based calculations. [1]
