Investigation of the dispersion and the effective masses of excitons in bulk 2H-MoS2 using transition electron energy-loss spectroscopy

Abstract

We have investigated the electronic excitations in bulk 2H-MoS2 using electron energy-loss spectroscopy. The electron energy-loss spectra in the M and K directions were measured for various momentum transfer values. The results allow the identification of the A1 and B1 exciton peaks and in particular their energy-momentum dispersion. The dispersions exhibit approximately quadratic upward trends and slight anisotropies in the M and K directions. The fitted energy-momentum transfer functions allow the estimation of the effective masses of the excitons which are in close proximity to predicted values.
