Abstract

The twist engineering of moiré superlattice in van der Waals heterostructures of transition metal dichalcogenides can manipulate valley physics of interlayer excitons (IXs), paving the way for next-generation valleytronic devices. However, the twist angle-dependent control of excitonic potential on valley polarization is not investigated so far in electrically controlled heterostructures and the physical mechanism underneath needs to be explored. Here, we demonstrate the dependence of both polarization switching and degree of valley polarization on the moiré period. We also find the mechanisms to reveal the modulation of twist angle on the exciton potential and the electron-hole exchange interaction, which elucidate the experimentally observed twist angle-dependent valley polarization of IXs. Furthermore, we realize the valley-addressable devices based on polarization switch. Our work demonstrates the manipulation of the valley polarization of IXs by tunning twist angle in electrically controlled heterostructures, which opens an avenue for electrically controlling the valley degrees of freedom in twistronic devices.
