Fano resonances from plasmon-exciton coupling in hetero-bilayer WSe2-WS2 on Au nanorod arrays
Plasmon-exciton coupling in hetero-bilayer of WSe2 and WS2 transferred onto Au nanorod arrays is studied. Dark-field scattering measurements reveal that the in-plane dipole moment of excitons in monolayer WS2 allows only the narrow spectral range of 30 nm for the resonant coupling between the localized particle plasmons from Au nanorods and the bright excitons from WS2. We demonstrate that the q-parameter that represents the asymmetry of Fano resonances from plasmon-exciton coupling can be controlled by the polarization states of incident light. Surface lattice resonances in between individual Au nanorods play a role to diminish the damping factor of plasmon-exciton coupling in the arrays.
