Helicity-Selective Electron-Phonon Coupling Between PT-Partner States in 2H-bilayer MoS2
Abstract
Rotational symmetry (Cn) constrains chiral phonons, but how other symmetries affect their interactions remains largely unexplored. We perform a theoretical and computational study of chiral phonon coupling to parity-time (PT)-degenerate electron doublets in 2H-bilayer MoS2. Although PT suppresses phonon singlet chirality, chiral phonon doublets can helically interact with PT-partner electronic states via a mechanism similar to pseudospin. Selection rules are then analyzed with the interplay of PT and C3. Our computational results of 2H-bilayer MoS2 suggest chiral phonons may be used to resolve intravalley electronic states in PT systems.
