Optical excitations in 2H-MoS2 bilayers under pressure — •Jan-Hauke Graalmann1, Paul Steeger2, Rudolf Bratschitsch2, and Michael Rohlfing1 — 1University of Münster, Institute of Solid State Theory, Wilhelm-Klemm-Str. 10, 48149 Münster, Germany — 2University of Münster, Institute of Physics and Center for Nanotechnology, Wilhelm-Klemm-Str. 10, 48149 Münster, Germany
Theoretical and experimental investigations have shown several changes in the optical spectrum of the 2H-MoS2 bilayer under pressure [1].
By using density functional theory (DFT) and many-body perturbation theory in combination with linear elasticity, our computational investigations show an effective shift of the A exciton under pressure. It is strongly connected to the behavior of the direct band gap at the K point, which shifts in energy under pressure. The direction of this shift depends on the stress condition. While a hydrostatic pressure leads to a blueshift, a suppression of the in-plane contraction, as it appears in diamond anvil cell-experiments due to the interaction between the sample and the substrate, shows a redshift.
Moreover, we observe a similar behavior for the interlayer exciton, whereas the shift rate is smaller than that of the A exciton, which results in a decreasing A-IL splitting for an increasing pressure.
