In 2H stacking bilayer MoS2, the exciton with an interlayer nature has been evidenced due to the hybridization of hole states among both layers. The transition energy of this interlayer exciton is located between the A and B excitons. In this work, we investigate the evolution of optical properties in stacking MoS2 bilayers with the twisted angles ranging from 0° to 60°, especially focusing on the interlayer exciton. The clear modulations of the exciton responses are observed by the

... ture reflectance. The interlayer exciton transition is observed in the artificial stacking bilayer MoS2 with the twisted angle around 60°. We found that the interlayer exciton is very sensitive to the twisted angle. Once the stacking angle deviates the 2H stacking by a few degrees, the interlayer transition is quenched. This is due to the bilayer symmetry and interlayer coupling of this unique system.
