Abstract

The emission of light from correlated excitonic complexes has been recently observed in atomically thin transition metal dichalcogenides. Here, the authors report electroluminescence generated by a pulsed gate voltage from excitons, trions, and biexcitons in monolayer WSe2 and WS2 encapsulated with hBN.
