  abstract  = {Solid-state cavity quantum electrodynamics is a rapidly advancing field, which explores the frontiers of light-matter coupling. Metal-based approaches are of particular interest in this field, as they carry the potential to squeeze optical modes to spaces significantly below the diffraction limit. Transition metal dichalcogenides are ideally suited as the active material in cavity quantum electrodynamics, as they interact strongly with light at the ultimate monolayer limit. Here, we implement a Tamm-plasmon-polariton structure and study the coupling to a monolayer of WSe\(_{2}\), hosting highly stable excitons. Exciton-polariton formation at room temperature is manifested in the characteristic energy-momentum dispersion relation studied in photoluminescence, featuring an anti-crossing between the exciton and photon modes with a Rabi-splitting of 23.5 meV. Creating polaritonic quasiparticles in monolithic, compact architectures with atomic monolayers under ambient conditions is a crucial step towards the exploration of nonlinearities, macroscopic coherence and advanced spinor physics with novel, low-mass bosons.},

  abstract  = {Schon heute bilden Einzelphotonenquellen einen wichtigen Baustein in der Photonik und Quanteninformation. Der Fokus der Forschung liegt entsprechend auf dem Finden und Charakterisieren daf{\"u}r geeigneter Materialsysteme. Konkret beschäftigt sich die vorliegende Arbeit vorwiegend mit dem Übergangsmetall-Dichalkogenid (TMDC1 ) Wolframdiselenid und seinen Eigenschaften. Diese Wahl ist durch den direkte Zugang zu Einzelphotonenquellen begr{\"u}ndet, die sich in dessen Monolagen ausbilden können. Diese Lichtquellen können {\"u}ber eine Modulation der Verspannung der Monolage gezielt aktiviert werden. Durch die, verglichen mit ihrem Volumen, riesige Kontaktfläche lassen sich Monolagen zudem mit Hilfe des Substrats, auf das sie transferiert wurden, wesentlich beeinflussen. Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit wurden Monolagen von WSe2 in unterschiedlichen Bauteilen wie zirkulare Bragg-Gittern oder vorstrukturierten, metallischen Oberflächen implementiert und die Photolumineszenz des TMDCs untersucht. Diese Arbeit belegt die Möglichkeit, Einzelphotonenquellen basierend aufWSe2 -Monolagen auf verschiedenste Weise modulieren zu können. Dank ihrer zwei- dimensionalen Geometrie lassen sie sich einfach in bestehende Strukturen integrieren oder auch in der Zukunft mit weiteren 2D-Materialien kombinieren.},

  abstract  = {Monolayers of transition metal dichalcogenide materials emerged as a new material class to study excitonic effects in solid state, as they benefit from enormous Coulomb correlations between electrons and holes. Especially in WSe\(_{2}\), sharp emission features have been observed at cryogenic temperatures, which act as single photon sources. Tight exciton localization has been assumed to induce an anharmonic excitation spectrum; however, the evidence of the hypothesis, namely the demonstration of a localized biexciton, is elusive. Here we unambiguously demonstrate the existence of a localized biexciton in a monolayer of WSe\(_{2}\), which triggers an emission cascade of single photons. The biexciton is identified by its time-resolved photoluminescence, superlinearity and distinct polarization in micro-photoluminescence experiments. We evidence the cascaded nature of the emission process in a cross-correlation experiment, which yields a strong bunching behaviour. Our work paves the way to a new generation of quantum optics experiments with two-dimensional semiconductors.},
