Abstract
We study van der Waals heterostructures consisting of monolayer MoSe2 and few-layer Cr2Ge2Te6 fully encapsulated in hexagonal boron nitride using low-temperature photoluminescence and polar magneto-optical Kerr-effect measurements. Photoluminescence characterization reveals a partial quenching and a change of the exciton-trion emission ratio in the heterostructure as compared to the isolated MoSe2 monolayer. Under circularly polarized excitation, we find that the exciton-trion emission ratio depends on the relative orientation of excitation helicity and Cr2Ge2Te6 magnetization, even though the photoluminescence emission itself is unpolarized. This observation hints at an ultrafast, spin-dependent interlayer charge transfer that competes with exciton and trion formation and recombination.
