- Abstract summary: We study the excitations in 1T-PtSe2 from the monolayer limit to the bulk.
The absence of long-range screening in the two-dimensional limit, inhibits the formation of long wavelength plasmons.
Our work unravels the excited state spectrum of layered 1T-PtSe2 and establishes the qualitatively different momentum dependence of excitons and plasmons in 2D materials.

- Abstract: The 1T-phase layered PtX2 chalcogenides has attracted widespread interest due
to its thickness dependent metal-semiconductor transition driven by strong
interlayer coupling. While the ground state properties of this paradigmatic
material system have been widely explored, its fundamental excitation spectrum
remains poorly understood. Here we combine first principles calculations with
momentum (q) resolved electron energy loss spectroscopy (q-EELS) to study the
collective excitations in 1T-PtSe2 from the monolayer limit to the bulk. At
finite momentum transfer all the spectra are dominated by two distinct
interband plasmons that disperse to higher energy with increasing q.
Interestingly, the absence of long-range screening in the two-dimensional (2D)
limit, inhibits the formation of long wavelength plasmons. Consequently, in the
small-q limit, excitations in monolayer PtSe2 are exclusively of excitonic
nature, and the loss spectrum coincides with the optical spectrum. Our work
unravels the excited state spectrum of layered 1T-PtSe2 and establishes the
qualitatively different momentum dependence of excitons and plasmons in 2D
materials.

Transition metal dichalcogenides layered nano-crystals are emerging as promising candidates for next-generation optoelectronic and quantum devices.
Here, we use ultrafast electron diffraction and ab initio calculations to investigate the many-body structural dynamics following nearly-resonant excitation of low-energy indirect excitons in MoS2.
Our results highlight the strong selectivity of phononic excitations directly associated with the specific indirect-exciton nature of the wavelength-dependent electronic transitions triggered in the system.

We investigated the fluorescence signals from Rhodamine 6G and LDS798 excited with a CW laser or an entangled photon pair source at 1060 nm.
We observed a signal that originates from hot-band absorption (HBA), which is one-photon absorption from thermally-populated vibrational levels of the ground electronic state.
For the typical conditions under which E2PEF measurements are performed, contributions from the HBA process could lead to a several orders-of-magnitude overestimate of the quantum advantage for excitation efficiency.
