Abstract

Abstract Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have emerged as a promising platform for chip-integrated optoelectronics and non-linear optics. Here, we demonstrate a two-dimensional (2D) monolayer tungsten disulfide (WS2) efficiently coupled to a dielectric circular Bragg resonator (CBR). The coupling of the WS2 and CBR leads to pronounced enhancements in both photoluminescence (PL) and second harmonic generation (SHG) by a factor of 34 and 5, respectively. Our work provides a powerful tool to enhance the interactions between light and the 2D materials, paving the way for efficient on-chip optoelectronic devices.

Summary

Introduction

The monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) [1,2,3,4,5], such as MoS2, MoSe2, tungsten disulfide (WS2) and WSe2, are emerging platforms to study light–matter interaction at nanoscale. A recent study on WS2 has revealed large second-order nonlinear susceptibility due to the lack of central-symmetry [13, 14]. The performances of atomically thin TMDs as light-emitting devices and non-linear optical materials are significantly limited by the weak light–matter interaction due to their atomic thickness. We demonstrate a monolayer WS2 coupled to a silicon nitride (SiN) CBR. This hybrid system simultaneously experiences pronounced enhancements of both photoluminescence (PL) and second harmonic generation (SHG) at the CBR resonance when injecting low-power of green laser and high-power of near infrared laser, respectively. This work may offer a viable solution of building compact and efficient linear and nonlinear optoelectronic devices by the fusion between 2D material of integrated photonic devices
