Atomically thin semiconductors with hexagonal lattices, amongst them the transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), are exciting candidates for electronic and optoelectronic applications due to their large and tuneable band gap, strong spin-orbit coupling and nonequivalent valleys. Broken inversio...
