PT-Symmetry in Excitonic Spectra of TMDC Monolayers under Influence of Magnetic Fields — •Michiel Snoeken, Andreas Knorr, and Henry Mittenzwey — Nichtlineare Optik und Quantenelektronik, Institut für Physik und Astronomie (IFPA), Technische Universität Berlin, D-10623 Berlin, Germany

Excitons in TMDC monolayers under the influence of an in-plane magnetic field are theoretically studied. We demonstrate that in-plane magnetic fields induce a hybridization between spin-bright and spin-dark exciton transitions, resulting in a brightening of spin-dark excitons in optical experiments. We provide a thorough analytical characterization of the spectrum and demonstrate that, upon including dissipation, such a system can be interpreted as a gain-loss system as described in PT-symmetric quantum mechanics.

Keywords: excitons; PT-symmetry; magnetic fields; spin phenomena
