  • The authors observe the signatures of quadrupolar excitons in a WSe2-WS2-WSe2 trilayer moiré superlattice, originating from the hybridization of the WSe2 valence moiré flatbands. They further use electrostatic gating to reveal a hybridized interlayer Mott insulator state, with holes shared between the two WSe2 layers but laterally confined in moiré superlattices.

  • Bacterial-fungal interactions can stimulate the production of specialised microbial metabolites. Here, Richter et al. use co-culture experimental evolution to show that the presence of a fungus selects for increased surfactin production in the bacterium Bacillus subtilis, which inhibits fungal growth and facilitates the competitive success of the bacterium.

  • An out-of-plane magnetic field is expected to strongly modify exciton-phonon interactions in atomically thin transitional metal dichalcogenides. Here, the authors show that the phonon-exciton interaction in monolayer WSe2 lifts the inter-Landau-level transition selection rules for dark trions.

  • Twisted heterostructures of transition metal dichalcogenides host the so-called moiré excitons, or intralayer excitons modified by the moiré potential. Here the authors show tunability of the moiré excitons and the coexisting correlated electronic states in WSe2/WS2 superlattices with varying WSe2 layer thickness

  • So far, only indirect evidence of Wigner crystals has been reported, but a specially designed scanning tunnelling microscope is used here to directly image them in a moiré heterostructure.

  • The long lifetime and spin properties of dark excitons in atomically thin transition metal dichalcogenides offer opportunities to explore light-matter interactions beyond electric dipole transitions. Here, the authors demonstrate that the coupling of the dark exciton and an optically silent chiral phonon enables the intrinsic photoluminescence of the dark-exciton replica in monolayer WSe2

  • Stacking monolayer WS2 on top of bilayer WSe2 creates conditions where electrons and holes can coexist in the structure. Their Coulomb interaction allows them to form bound pairs and hence an excitonic insulator state.

  • Excitons are quasiparticles consisting of an electron-hole pair and can be used to study many-body phenomenon. Here, the authors demonstrate on-demand quantum confinement of long-lived interlayer excitons in WS2/WSe2 heterostructures deposited on nanopatterned substrates.
