Observation of Intervalley Transitions can boost Valleytronic Science and Technology

Multipath Optical Recombination of Intervalley Dark Excitons and Trions in Monolayer WSe2. Physical Review Letters, 2020; 124 (19) DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.124.196802

An international research team led by scientists at the University of California, Riverside, has observed light emission from a new type of transition between electronic valleys, known as intervalley transmissions. The research provides a new way to read out valley information, potentially leading to new types of devices.

Current semiconductor technology uses electronic charge or spin to store and process information; the associated technologies are called electronics and spintronics, respectively...
