Description:

(abstract)

Transition metal dichalcogenide monolayers represent unique platforms for studying both electronic and phononic interactions as well as intra- and intervalley exciton com- plexes. Here, we investigate the upconversion of exciton photoluminescence in MoSe2 monolayers. Within the nominal transparency window of MoSe2 the exciton emission is enhanced for resonantly addressing the spin-singlet negative trion and neutral biexci- ton at a few tens of meV below the neutral exciton transition. We identify that the A’1 optical phonon at the K valley provides the energy gain in the upconversion process at the trion resonance, while ZA(K) phonons with their spin- and valley-switching property support the biexciton driven upconversion of the exciton emission. Interestingly, the latter is unpolarized due to a superposition state formed by the two bright excitons at the K valleys. Our study highlights high-order exciton complexes interacting with optical and acoustic K-valley phonons and upconverting light into the bright exciton.
