• Abstract: We develop an analytical procedure to retrieve fundamental material parameters of monolayer transition-metal dichalcogenides from optical and magneto-optical exciton spectra, based on the solvable modified Kratzer model. The proposed retrieval procedure naturally consists of two complementary stages. In the first stage, explicit inversion formulas determine the quasiparticle bandgap, effective screening parameter, and energy scaling factor directly from the experimentally measured energies of the three lowest excitonic states, from which the screening length is subsequently obtained. In the second stage, an analytical expression for the magnetic-field dependence of the exciton energies independently yields the reduced exciton mass, from which the surrounding dielectric constant is then calculated. Once the complete set of material parameters has been retrieved, the framework analytically predicts the diamagnetic coefficients, exciton radii, and complete magnetoexciton spectra without introducing additional fitting parameters or matrix diagonalization. The method is applied to a broad range of experimental samples for WSe$_2$, WS$_2$, MoS$_2$, MoSe$_2$, and MoTe$_2$ monolayers embedded in different dielectric environments. The retrieved material parameters are in good agreement with independent experimental measurements and previous Rytova--Keldysh (RK) calculations, while the predicted excitonic properties accurately reproduce available magneto-optical observations. The proposed analytical theory provides an efficient, physically transparent alternative to conventional numerical fitting procedures and offers an effective tool for the rapid characterization of two-dimensional semiconductors via excitonic spectroscopy.
