Indirect Band Gap

Efficient light harvesting devices need to combine strong absorption in the visible spectral range with efficient ultrafast charge separation. These features commonly occur in novel ultimately thin van der Waals heterostructures with type II band alignment. Recently, ultrafast charge separation was also observed in monolayer WS2/graphene heterostructures with type I band alignment. Here we use time- and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy to show that ultrafast charge separation also occurs at the interface between bilayer WS2 and graphene indicating that the indirect band gap of bilayer WS2 does not affect the charge transfer to the graphene layer. The microscopic insights gained in the present study will turn out to be useful for the design of novel optoelectronic devices.

Abstract Utilizing the atomistic tight-binding theory, the impact of the lateral and vertical potential confinement by the coated shell on the CdSe/CdTe core/crown and core/shell nanoplatelets (NPLs) is attained. The spatial charge separation and encapsulated shell have a noteworthy impact on the electronic structures and optical properties because of the type-II band profile. The reduced band gaps with the growing laterally and vertically passivated shell thicknesses are due to the quantum confinement phenomena. The optical band gaps adjusted across the visible light are achieved by the shell thickness change. The excitonic binding energies of CdSe/CdTe core/shell NPLs are larger than those of CdSe/CdTe core/crown NPLs. Thanks to the spatial charge separation, a shortening of the oscillation strengths is concomitant with an increase of the radiative lifetimes. Overall, this scientific research underlines the importance of the theoretical understanding and practical control by lateral and vertical confinement of heterostructure NPLs.
