Time- and angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (trARPES) is employed to study the valley-selective excitation and near-surface dynamics of carriers in singly-oriented monolayer WS2/Au(111). Upon photoexcitation with circularly polarized light (λ ≈ 590 nm), we observe a selective population of both valence and conduction band at K and K, respectively. Our results are consistent with the fraction of domains with mirror orientation being ≤10 % , a value that was determined in diffraction experiments [1]. The quantitative analysis of the data indicates a valley polarization in the valence band of ≈ 90 % , while in the conduction band the valley polarization only reaches values of ≈ 70 % . We explain this difference by the small spin-orbit splitting of the conduction band, which promotes intervalley scattering processes. Different carrier dynamics of valence and conduction band population further hint to intervalley scattering being of relevance for the depolarization of the conduction band.
