Abstract

Stacking to prolong valley lifetime: In the material MoSe 2 , which, like graphene, has a two-dimensional honeycomb crystal lattice, the electronic structure has two “valleys.” Electrons can be distinguished by the valley they reside in, making them act as potential information carriers. However, electrons easily lose this information by scattering into the other valley. Rivera et al. placed single layers of MoSe 2 and WSe 2 on top of each other and shone circularly polarized light on the structure. The light caused excitons—pairs of electrons and holes—to form so that the hole and electron came from the same valley but different layers. The valley-specific character of such excitons persisted far longer than would be possible in a single layer of either material. Science , this issue p. 688

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
