The temperature dependence of the luminescence spectra of MoSe2 crystals intercalated with I2 molecules has been investigated. The luminescence spectrum consists of a zero-phonon doublet and its phonon replicas, caused by the recombination of excitons bound on iodine molecules embedded in the van der Waals gap. The rate of radiative recombination of the B state is found to be 76 times higher than the A state.
Temperature dependence of the luminescence spectra of MoSe2 crystals intercalated with I2 molecules has been investigated in the temperature range 11-100 K. The spectrum of luminescence, which is caused by the recombination of excitons bound on iodine molecules embedded in the van der Waals gap (vdW), consists of zero-phonon doublet at an energy less by 0.1 eV than the width of the indirect band gap of the host crystal , its phonon replicas. The distance between the spectral lines of this A-B doublet constitutes increment AB=5.6 meV. From the temperature dependence of the ratio of the A , B lines intensities, it was found, that the rate of radiative recombination of the exciton state B, which is responsible for the short-wavelength line B (EB =1.0416 eV), is 76 times higher than the recombination rate of the A state (EA = .0360 eV). Based on a comparative analysis of the structure of the luminescence spectra at different temperatures and the measured Raman spectra, it is shown that the observed nine peaks of the phonon sideband are formed by only two vibrational modes with frequencies nu ph1 = 144 cm-1 and nu ph2 = 190 cm-1. The 1st frequency corresponds to the vibrational mode due to the second-order Raman process, and the 2nd - to the local vibrational mode induced by the halogen molecule embedded in the layered crystal structure. Finally, fundamental possibilities provided by the intercalation of halogen molecules in the interface of the van der Waals heterojunctions to modify their electronic properties are considered.(c) 2023 Optica Publishing Group under the terms of the Optica Open Access Publishing Agreement
