The electronic valleys present in monolayer TMDs such as MoS2, WS2, and WSe2 are among the many novel properties exhibited by semiconductors thinned down to a few atomic layers, and have have been proposed as a new way to carry information in next generation devices (so-called valleytronics). These valleys are, however, normally locked in the same energy level, which limits their potential use for applications. The author describes experiment performed with a pump-probe technique using a transient absorption spectroscopy on MoS2 and WS2. It is demonstrated that hybridizing the electronic valleys with light allows one to optically tune their energy levels in a controllable valley-selective manner. In particular, by using off-resonance circularly polarized light at small detuning, one can tune the energy level of one valley through the optical Stark effect. Also presented within are observations, at larger detuning, of a separate contribution from the so-called Bloch--Siegert effect, a delicate phenomenon that has eluded direct observation in solids. The two effects obey opposite selection rules, enabling one to separate the two effects at two different valleys. 410 0$aSpringer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,$x2190-5053 606 $aSurfaces (Physics) 606 $aInterfaces (Physical sciences) 606 $aThin films 606 $aOptical materials 606 $aElectronic materials 606 $aSpectroscopy 606 $aMicroscopy 606 $aLasers 606 $aPhotonics 606 $aSemiconductors 606 $aAtoms 606 $aPhysics 606 $aSurface and Interface Science, Thin Films$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P25160 606 $aOptical and Electronic Materials$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z12000 606 $aSpectroscopy and Microscopy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P31090 606 $aOptics, Lasers, Photonics, Optical Devices$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P31030 606 $aSemiconductors$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P25150 606 $aAtoms and Molecules in Strong Fields, Laser Matter Interaction$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P24025 615 0$aSurfaces (Physics). 615 0$aInterfaces (Physical sciences). 615 0$aThin films. 615 0$aOptical materials. 615 0$aElectronic materials. 615 0$aSpectroscopy. 615 0$aMicroscopy. 615 0$aLasers. 615 0$aPhotonics. 615 0$aSemiconductors. 615 0$aAtoms. 615 0$aPhysics. 615 14$aSurface and Interface Science, Thin Films. 615 24$aOptical and Electronic Materials. 615 24$aSpectroscopy and Microscopy. 615 24$aOptics, Lasers, Photonics, Optical Devices. 615 24$aSemiconductors. 615 24$aAtoms and Molecules in Strong Fields, Laser Matter Interaction. 676 $a541.33 700 $aSie$b Edbert Jarvis$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01058293 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300551003321 996 $aCoherent Light-Matter Interactions in Monolayer Transition-Metal Dichalcogenides$92498793 997 $aUNINA
