Inheritance of the exciton geometric structure from Bloch electrons in two-dimensional layered semiconductors

We theoretically studied the exciton geometric structure in layered semi-conducting transition metal dichalcogenides.Based on a three-orbital tight-binding model for Bloch electrons which incorporates their geometric structures,an effective exciton Hamiltonian is constructed and solved perturbatively to reveal the relation between the exciton and its electron/hole constituent.We show that the electron-hole Coulomb interaction gives rise to a non-trivial inheritance of the exciton geometric structure from Bloch electrons,which manifests as a valley-dependent center-of-mass anomalous Hall velocity of the exciton when two external fields are applied on the electron and hole constituents,respectively.The obtained center-of-mass anomalous velocity is found to exhibit a non-trivial depen-dence on the fields,as well as the wave function and valley index of the exciton.These findings can serve as a general guide for the field-control of the valley-dependent exciton transport,enabling the design of novel quan-tum optoelectronic and valleytronic devices.
