Abstract

The two degenerate valleys, K and K’, in 2D transition metal dichalcogenides (TMD) can be used as information carriers for quantum information science and technologies. Obtaining valley polarization in TMDs, which is the equivalent of encoding or writing data, is the first step towards these applications. Here, we report valley polarization in monolayer TMD/chiral perovskite heterostructures at room temperature via spin selective charge transfer. We obtained 7% degree of polarization from the heterostructures after photoexcitation with a linearly polarized laser. We further demonstrate that charge transfer occurs within picoseconds using ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy. Our results pave the way for practical valleytronics devices based on TMD/perovskite heterostructures.
