Abstract
Understanding ultrafast electronic dynamics of the interlayer excitonic states in atomically thin transition metal dichalcogenides is of importance in engineering valleytronics and developing excitonic integrated circuits. In this work, we experimentally explored the ultrafast dynamics of indirect interlayer excitonic states in monolayer type II WSe2/ReS2 heterojunctions using time-resolved photoemission electron microscopy, which reveals its anisotropic behavior. The ultrafast cooling and decay of excited-state electrons exhibit significant linear dichroism. The ab initio theoretical calculations provide unambiguous evidence that this linear dichroism result is primarily associated with the anisotropic nonradiative recombination of indirect interlayer excitonic states. Measuring time-resolved photoemission energy spectra, we have further revealed the ultrafast evolution of excited-state electrons in anisotropic indirect interlayer excitonic states. The findings have important implications for controlling the interlayer moiré excitonic effects and designing anisotropic optoelectronic devices.
