Abstract Recent experiments observed significant energy transfer in type-II van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures, such as WS 2 /MoSe , which is surprising due to their staggered band alignment and weak spectral overlap. In this work, we carry out first-principles calculations shed light on charge heterostructure. Incorporating excitonic effect nonadiabatic electronic dynamics, our uncover a two-step process competing transfer, unravel relative efficiencies explore the means control...
