Prolonging hot carrier cooling, a crucial factor in optoelectronic applications, including hot carrier photovoltaics, presents a significant challenge. High-energy band-nesting excitons within parallel bands offer a promising and underexplored avenue for addressing this issue. Here, we exploit an exceptional D exciton cooling prolongation of 2 to 3 orders of magnitude compared to sub-picosecond in typical transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) owing to the complex Coulomb environment and the sequential and mismatch-valley relaxation.

We simulated hot-electron relaxation in black phosphorus using the nonadiabatic molecular dynamics (NA-MD) approach with a non-Condon effect in momentum space beyond the harmonic approximation. By comparing simulations at the Γ point in a large supercell with those using a few -points in a smaller supercell─while maintaining the same number of electronic states within the same energy range, we demonstrate that both setups yield remarkably consistent energy relaxation times, regardless of the initial state energy. This consistency arises from the complementary effects of supercell size in real space and the number of -points in the reciprocal space.

Strain engineering is an important strategy to modulate the electronic and optical properties of two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors. In experiments, an effective and feasible method to induce strains on 2D semiconductors is the out-of-plane bending. However, in contrast to the in-plane methods, it will generate a combined strain effect on 2D semiconductors, which deserves further explorations.

While valleys (energy extrema) are present in all band structures of solids, their preeminent role in determining exciton resonances and dynamics in atomically thin transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDC) is unique. Using two-dimensional coherent electronic spectroscopy, we find that exciton decoherence occurs on a much faster timescale in MoSe_{2} bilayers than that in the monolayers. We further identify two population relaxation channels in the bilayer, a coherent and an incoherent one.

In this paper, we investigated the valley transport properties of silicene on a GaAs(111) substrate. Hydrogen atoms as intercalation substantially weaken the interaction between silicene and GaAs(111) substrate. Thus, the equivalent intervalley scattering between K valleys and the non-equivalent intervalley scattering between Γ and K valleys were studied.
