Abstract
Interlayer excitons (IXs) in two-dimensional (2D) heterostructures provide an exciting avenue for exploring optoelectronic and valleytronic phenomena. Presently, valleytronic research is limited to transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) based 2D heterostructure samples, which require strict lattice (mis) match and interlayer twist angle requirements. Here, we explore a 2D heterostructure system with experimental observation of spin-valley layer coupling to realize helicity-resolved IXs, without the requirement of a specific geometric arrangement, i.e., twist angle or specific thermal annealing treatment of the samples in 2D Ruddlesden-Popper (2DRP) halide perovskite/2D TMD heterostructures. Using first-principle calculations, time-resolved and circularly polarized luminescence measurements, we demonstrate that Rashba spin-splitting in 2D perovskites and strongly coupled spin-valley physics in monolayer TMDs render spin-valley-dependent optical selection rules to the IXs. Consequently, a robust valley polarization of ∼14% with a long exciton lifetime of ∼22 ns is obtained in type-II band aligned 2DRP/TMD heterostructure at ∼1.54 eV measured at 80 K. Our work expands the scope for studying spin-valley physics in heterostructures of disparate classes of 2D semiconductors.
