Owing to the presence of strongly bound excitons and degenerate valleys, monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides show promise for valleytronic applications. Here, the authors embed monolayer WSe2 in a monolithic dielectric cavity, and observe room-temperature valley coherence of valley-polaritons.
