The abstract, sentence by sentence
Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are known to be highly sensitive to externally applied tensile or compressive strain. In particular, strain can be exploited as a tool to control the optical response of TMDs. However, the role of excitonic effects under strain has not been fully understood yet. Utilizing the strain-induced modification of electron and phonon dispersion obtained by first principle calculations, we present in this work microscopic insights into the strain-dependent optical response of various TMD materials. In particular, we explain recent experiments on the change of excitonic linewidths in strained TMDs and predict their behavior for tensile and compressive strain at low temperatures.
