| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Valley degrees of freedom of electrons and holes has recently attracted much interest in fundamental and applied research areas because of novel phenomena and their potential for next generation electronics device with high speed operation (valleytronics). This study focuses on elucidation and control of valley relaxation mechanism in monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (MX2, M=Mo, W, X=S, Se) in which valley and spin degrees of freedom are coupled. By using device structure fabrication and spectroscopic technique, we obtained deep understanding of relaxation mechanism of valley polarized state and demonstrated proof of principle to achieve high valley polarization, which holds potential for novel valleytronics devices.
