  We investigate the valley related carrier dynamics in monolayer MoS2 using
helicity resolved non-degenerate ultrafast pump-probe spectroscopy at the
vicinity of the high-symmetry K point under the temperature down to 78 K.
Monolayer MoS2 shows remarkable transient reflection signals, in stark contrast
to bilayer and bulk MoS2 due to the enhancement of many-body effect at reduced
dimensionality. The helicity resolved ultrafast time-resolved result shows that
the valley polarization is preserved for only several ps before scattering
process makes it undistinguishable. We suggest that the dynamical degradation
of valley polarization is attributable primarily to the exciton trapping by
defect states in the exfoliated MoS2 samples. Our experiment and a
tight-binding model analysis also show that the perfect valley CD selectivity
is fairly robust against disorder at the K point, but quickly decays from the
high-symmetry point in the momentum space in the presence of disorder.
