Apr282021 Doctoral thesisMicroscopic Theory of Externally Tunable Exciton Signatures of Two-Dimensional MaterialsAtomically thin transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are in the focus of current research due to their efficient light-matter interaction and the remarkably strong Coulomb interaction that leads to tightly bound excitons. Due to their unique ba... Author: Maja Feierabend. Opponent: Dr. Andres Castellanos-Gomez, Materials Science Institute of Madrid, Spain.   14:00  Location: PJ salen, Kemigården 1, Chalmers.
