Long-lived nanosecond spin relaxation and spin coherence of electrons in monolayer MoS2 and WS2

A range of semiconductors can host both spin and valley polarizations. Optical experiments on single layers of transition metal dichalcogenides now show that inter-valley scattering can accelerate spin relaxation. The recently discovered monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) provide a f...
