Plasmon-Induced Enhanced Light Emission and Ultrafast Carrier Dynamics in a Tunable Molybdenum Disulfide-Gallium Nitride Heterostructure.

ABSTRACT: The effect of localized plasmon on the photoemission and absorption in hybrid molybdenum disulfide-Gallium nitride (MoS₂-GaN) heterostructure has been studied. Localized plasmon induced by platinum nanoparticles was resonantly coupled to the bandedge states of GaN to enhance the UV emission from the hybrid semiconductor system. The presence of the platinum nanoparticles also increases the effective absorption and the transient gain of the excitonic absorption in MoS₂. Localized plasmons were also resonantly coupled to the defect states of GaN and the exciton states using gold nanoparticles. The transfer of hot carriers from Au plasmons to the conduction band of MoS₂ and the trapping of excited carriers in MoS₂ within GaN defects results in transi
