Field-Induced Hybridization of Moiré Excitons in MoSe_{2}/WS_{2} Heterobilayers.

ABSTRACT

We study experimentally and theoretically the hybridization among intralayer and interlayer moiré excitons in a MoSe_{2}/WS_{2} heterostructure with antiparallel alignment. Using a dual-gate device and cryogenic white light reflectance and narrow-band laser modulation spectroscopy, we subject the moiré excitons in the MoSe_{2}/WS_{2} heterostack to a perpendicular electric field, monitor the field-induced dispersion and hybridization of intralayer and interlayer moiré exciton states, and induce a crossover from type I to type II band alignment. Moreover, we employ perpendicular magnetic fields to map out the dependence of the corresponding exciton Landé g factors on the electric field. Finally, we develop an effective theoretical model combining resonant and nonresonant contributions to moiré potentials to explain the observed phenomenology, and highlight the relevance of interlayer coupling for structures with close energetic band alignment as in MoSe_{2}/WS_{2}.
