Abstract

Spin-valley coupling in monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides gives rise to valley polarization and coherence effect, limited by intervalley scattering caused by exciton-phonon, exciton-impurity, and electron-hole exchange interaction (EHEI). We explore an approach to tune the EHEI by controlling excitons center of mass momentum (COM) utilizing the photon distribution of higher-order optical vortex beam. By virtue of this, we have observed excitons COM-dependent valley depolarization and decoherence which gives us the ability to measure the timescale associated with valley dynamics in the steady-state measurement. Our steady-state technique to probe the valley dynamics can open up a new paradigm to explore the physics of excitons in two-dimensional systems.
