摘要：We report a comprehensive theory to describe exciton and biexciton valley dynamics in monolayer Mo 1-x W x Se 2 alloys. To probe the impact of different excitonic channels, including bright and dark excitons, intravalley biexcitons, intervalley scattering between bright excitons, as well as bright biexcitons, we have performed a systematic study from the simplest system to the most complex one. In contrast to the binary WSe 2 monolayer with weak photoluminescence (PL) and high valley polarization at low temperatures and the MoSe 2 , that presents high PL intensity, but low valley polarization, our results demonstrate that it is possible to set up a ternary alloy with intermediate W-concentration that holds simultaneously a considerably robust light emission and an efficient optical orientation of the valley pseudospin. We find the critical value of W-concentration, x c , that turns alloys from bright to darkish. The dependence of the PL intensity on temperature shows three regimes: while bright monolayer alloys display a usual temperature dependence in which the intensity decreases with rising temperature, the darkish alloys exhibit the opposite behavior, and the alloys with x around x c show a non-monotonic temperature response. Remarkably, we observe that the biexciton enhances significantly the stability of the exciton emission against fluctuations of W-concentration for bright alloys. Our findings pave the way for developing high-performance valleytronic and photo-emitting devices.
