Abstract
The interlayer twist angle has a direct effect on the exciton lifetimes in van der Waals heterostructures. At small angles, the interlayer and intralayer excitons in MoSe2/WS2 heterostructures are hybridized, resulting in hybridized excitons with long lifetimes and strong resonance. However, the study of twist-angle-modulation of hybridized exciton lifetimes is still insufficient, leading to an unclear understanding of the mechanism through which the twist angle between layers influences the lifetime of hybridized excitons. Here, we observed the formation of hybridized excitons by constructing MoSe2/WS2 heterostructures with different twist angles. The exciton lifetime is found to increase from 0.5 ns to 3.3 ns when the twist angle is reduced from 12° to 1°. This work provides a new perspective on the modulation of exciton lifetime, enabling further exploration in improving the efficiency of optoelectronic devices.
