Valley-addressable monolayer lasing through spin-controlled Berry phase photonic cavities

The spin-valley coupling between circularly polarized light and valley excitons in transition metal dichalcogenides provides the opportunity to generate and manipulate spin information by exploiting the valley degree of freedom. Here, we demonstrate a room-temperature valley-addressable tungsten disulfide monolayer laser in which the spin of lasing is controlled by the spin of pump without magneti fields. This effect was achieved by integrating a tungsten disulfide monolayer into a photonic cavity that supports two orthogonal spin modes with high quality factors. The spin-pumped lasing effectively broke the population symmetry of valley excitons, resulting in highly coherent emission with valley-switchable radiation modes due to distinct laser thresholds. Our scheme provides a nanophotonic platform to develop versatile coherent spin-light sources operating at room temperature by actively manipulating spin-valley coupling in light-matter interactions.
