Abstract
AbstractRoom temperature stable excitons in layered two‐dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) offer a unique route for engineering light and matter interactions. Due to the strong optical dispersion near the excitonic transitions, a high refractive index arises in these ultrathin semiconductors.[1,2] Utilizing this behavior, strongly confined Fano type optical resonances in an ultrathin (i.e., ≈12 nm) tungsten disulfide (WS2) photonic crystal (PhC) directly fabricated on a TMD‐on‐glass platform are reported. In this approach, Fano‐type WS2 photonic resonances strongly couple to the WS2 excitonic dispersion engender self‐resonant exciton‐polaritons with an out‐of‐plane optical confinement exceeding that provided by surface plasmon polaritons in the visible. The large spatial light‐matter overlap endowed by this unique monolithic self‐coupling scheme is utilized for steering of enhanced 2D WSe2 excitonic photoluminescence in a truly TMD integrated system. It is envisioned that the strong light matter interaction on the TMD‐on‐glass platform will unfold the prospects of ultrathin exciton‐polaritonic resonators.
