Abstract
In this talk, we will focus on the subject of strong light-matter coupling in excitonic 2D semiconductors. We will present our recent work on the fundamental physics of light trapping in multi-layer TMDCs when coupled to plasmonic substrates. We systematically demonstrate via calculations and matching experiments that the presence of strong excitonic resonances in multilayers (< 20 nm thickness) combined with surface plasmon excitations of the nearby metals can achieve strongly coupled modes with apparent voided crossings in reflectance spectra. Further, we explore additional light confinement by patterning 1D arrays of rectangular resonators of varying widths and periods (100 nm to 500 nm) showing three mode couplings. We will further present extensions of our studies to resonators with dielectric spaces and optical superlattices in 1D.
