The EEA rate is found to be 0.3 cm2/s and 0.1 cm2/s for suspended WS2 and MoS2 monolayers, respectively, and subject to the influence from substrates, being 0.1 cm2/s and 0.05 cm2/s for the supported WS2 and MoS2 on sapphire substrates. It can substantially affect the luminescence efficiency of suspended monolayers even at an exciton concentration as low as 109 cm-2, but plays a milder role for supported monolayers due to the effect of the substrate. However, regardless the presence of substrates or not, the lasing threshold of the monolayer is always predominantly determined by the EEA, which is estimated to be 12-18 MW/cm2 if using 532 nm as the pumping wavelength.}, number={20}, journal={Physical Review B}, author={Yu, Y.
