Abstract
The electron-hole exchange interaction is a fundamental mechanism that drives valley depolarization via intervalley exciton hopping in semiconductor multivalley systems. Here, we report polarization-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy of neutral excitons and negatively charged trions in monolayer Formula Presented and Formula Presented under biaxial strain. We observe a marked enhancement (reduction) on the Formula Presented triplet trion valley polarization with compressive (tensile) strain while the trion in Formula Presented is unaffected. The origin of this effect is shown to be a strain-dependent tuning of the electron-hole exchange interaction. A combined analysis of the strain-dependent polarization degree using ab initio calculations and rate equations shows that strain affects intervalley scattering beyond what is expected from strain-dependent band-gap modulations. The results evidence how strain can be used to tune valley physics in energetically degenerate multivalley systems.
