Abstract:
Exciton-plasmon coupling in hybrids of a monolayer transition metal dichalcogenide and Ag nanoparticles is investigated in the weak and strong coupling regimes. In the weak coupling regime, both absorption enhancement and the Purcell effect collectively modify the photoluminescence properties of the semiconductor. In the strong coupling regime, electromagnetically induced transparency dips are displayed, evidencing coherent energy exchange between excitons and plasmons.
