Lasing of moiré trapped MoSe/WSe interlayer excitons coupled to a nanocavity.

We report lasing of moiré trapped interlayer excitons (IXs) by integrating a pristine hBN-encapsulated MoSe/WSe heterobilayer into a high- (>10) nanophotonic cavity. We control the cavity-IX detuning using a magnetic field and measure their dipolar coupling strength to be 78 ± 4 micro-electron volts, fully consistent with the 82 micro-electron volts predicted by theory. The emission from the cavity mode shows clear threshold-like behavior as the transition is tuned into resonance with the cavity.

Extended Spatial Coherence of Interlayer Excitons in MoSe_{2}/WSe_{2} Heterobilayers.

We report on the spatial coherence of interlayer exciton ensembles as formed in MoSe_{2}/WSe_{2} heterostructures and characterized by point-inversion Michelson-Morley interferometry. Below 10 K, the measured spatial coherence length of the interlayer excitons reaches values equivalent to the lateral expansion of the exciton ensembles. In this regime, the light emission of the excitons turns out to be homogeneously broadened in energy with a high temporal coherence.
