Abstract:
Atomically thin materials such monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides exhibit remarkable physical properties resulting from their reduced dimensionality and crystal symmetry. They form a promising platform for fundamental studies of two-dimensional excitons due to the direct band gap and highly efficient light-matter coupling. The recent progress in understanding of the excitonic properties in monolayer TMDs is reviewed.

Bio:
M. M. Glazov obtained a PhD in semiconductor physics at Ioffe Institute 2008 and defended the Habilitation (Doctor of Sciences) on “Spin and kinetic phenomena in nanostructures and graphene” in 2012 also at Ioffe Institute. In 2016, Mikhail was elected as a corresponding member to Russian Academy of Sciences. His research interests include theory of spin effects in semiconductors, physics of two-dimensional materials and
light-matter coupling effects.
