Deskripsi

Mechanical strain is a powerful tuning knob for excitons in two-dimensional semiconductors. Here, the authors find that under the application of strain, dark and localized excitons in monolayer WSe2 are brought into energetic resonance, forming a new hybrid state that inherits the properties of the constituent species.
