Interplay of Excitonic Complexes in $p$-Doped WSe$_2$ Monolayers

WSe$_2$ monolayers with variable doping are an ideal system to study two-dimensional excitonic complexes. Here, we find that the strongest photoluminescence from bright neutral excitons occurs at moderate $p$-doping levels, owing to a rapid decrease of signal from positive dark trions and a slow increase of signal from positive bright trions with growing $p$-concentrations. We explain our observations with a qualitative model, in which the scattering rate of bright excitons into dark complexes is enhanced by exciton localization, while the scattering rate into positive bright trions increases with $p$-doping level.
