In heterobilayers of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) a new type of exciton emerges, where electron and hole are spatially separated. These interlayer excitons allow exploration of many-body quantum phenomena and are ideally suited for valleytronic applications. Mostly, a basic model of fully spatially-separated electron and hole stemming from the K valleys of the monolayer Brillouin zones is applied to describe such excitons. Here, we combine photoluminescence spectroscopy and first principle calculations to expand the concept of interlayer excitons. We identify a partially charge-separated electron-hole pair in MoS₂/WSe₂ heterostructures residing at the Γ and K valleys. We control the emission energy of this new type of k-space indirect, yet strongly-bound exciton by variation of the relative twist angle. These findings represent a crucial step towards the understanding and control of excitonic effects in TMDC heterostructures and devices.
