Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) have been regarded as promising candidates for the future light-emitting devices. To date, though the modulation of emission intensity and directionality in monolayer TMDCs has received considerable scholarly attention, there has been no systematic investigation on the underlying critical polarization. The intensity, directionality and robust polarization are highly favorable and pivotal for the future on-chip optoelectronic emission devices based on TMDCs.
