Quantum plasmonic control of trions in a picocavity with monolayer WS 2

by varying the neutral/charged exciton ratio via charge tunneling in Au-Ag picocavity. We observe trion "hot spots" generated by varying the picometer-scale probe-sample distance and show the effects of weak and strong coupling, which depend on the spatial location. Our experimental results are in agreement with simulations and open an unprecedented view of a new range of quantum plasmonic phenomena with 2D materials that will help to design new quantum optoelectronic devices.
