Giant Valley Splitting and Valley Polarized Plasmonics in Group V Transition-Metal Dichalcogenide Monolayers.
Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters 2017 December 8
Two-dimensional group VI transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) provide a promising platform to encode and manipulate quantum information in the valleytronics. However, the two valleys are energetically degenerate, protected by time-reversal symmetry (TRS). To lift this degeneracy, one needs to break the TRS by either applying an external magnetic field or using a magnetic rare-earth oxide substrate. Here, we predict a different strategy to achieve this goal. We propose that the ferromagnetic group V TMD monolayer, in which the TRS is intrinsically broken, can produce a larger valley and spin splitting. A polarized ZnS(0001) surface is also used as a substrate, which shifts the valleys to the low-energy regime (near the Fermi level). Moreover, by calculating its collective electronic excitation behaviors, we show that such a system hosts a giant valley polarized terahertz plasmonics. Our results demonstrate a new way to design and use valleytronic devices, which are both fundamentally and technologically significant.
