Atomically thin layers of transition-metal dichalcogenides semiconductors, such as MoS 2 , exhibit strong and circularly polarized light emission due to inherent crystal symmetries, pronounced spin-orbit coupling, and out-of-plane dielectric and spatial confinement. While the layer-by-layer confinement is well-understood, the understanding of the impact of in-plane quantization in their optical spectrum is far behind. Here, we report the optical properties of atomically thin MoS 2 colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals. In addition to the spatial-confinement effect leading to their blue wavelength emission, the high quality of our MoS 2 nanocrystals is revealed by narrow photoluminescence, which allows us to resolve multiple optically active transitions, originating from quantum-confined excitons (coupled electron-hole pairs). Surprisingly, in stark contrast to monolayer MoS 2 , the luminescence of the lowest-energy levels is linearly polarized and persists up to room temperature , meaning that it could be exploited in a variety of light-emitting applications.
