In monolayer WSe$_{2}$, the exciton emission shifts linearly with the magnetic field and exhibits a splitting which originates from the magnetic field induced valley splitting. The monolayer data can be described using a single particle picture with a Dirac-like Hamiltonian for massive Dirac fermions, with an additional term to phenomenologically include the valley splitting. In contrast, in bulk WSe$_{2}$ where the inversion symmetry is restored, transmission measurements show a distinctly excitonic behavior with absorption to the 1s and 2s states. Magnetic field induces a spin splitting together with a small diamagnetic shift and cyclotron like behavior at high fields, which is best described within the hydrogen model.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-06-12T06:14:12.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "high magnetic fields", "bulk tungsten diselenide", "optical investigation", "field induced valley splitting", "bulk transition metal dichalcogenides" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
