Title: Ultrafast Interlayer Charge Transfer between Bilayer PtSe2 and Monolayer WS2

Journal Article · · ACS Applied Materials and Interfaces

Interlayer charge transfer (CT) between PtSe2 and WS2 is studied experimentally. Layer-selective pump–probe and photoluminescence quenching measurements reveal ultrafast interlayer CT in the heterostructure formed by bilayer PtSe2 and monolayer WS2, confirming its type-II band alignment. The CT facilitates the formation of the interlayer excitons with a lifetime of several hundred ps to 1 ns, a diffusion coefficient of 0.9 cm2 s–1, and a diffusion length reaching 200 nm. Furthermore, these results demonstrate the integration of PtSe2 with other materials in van der Waals heterostructures with novel charge-transfer properties and help develop fundamental understanding on the performance of various optoelectronic devices based on heterostructures involving PtSe2.
