Efficient scattering into the exciton polariton ground state is a key prerequisite for generating Bose–Einstein condensates and low-threshold lasing. However, this can be challenging to achieve at low densities due bottleneck effect that impedes phonon-driven low-momentum states. The rich landscape of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) provides potential intervalley pathways via dark excitons rapidly populate these polaritons. Here, we present theoretical fully microscopic study exploring time- momentum-resolved relaxation polaritons supported by MoSe 2 monolayer integrated within Fabry–Perot cavity. By exploiting phonon-assisted transitions between momentum-dark lower branch, demonstrate it possible circumvent region efficiently state. Furthermore, pathway predicted give rise to, yet unobserved, angle-resolved phonon sidebands in low-temperature photoluminescence spectra are associated with excitons. This represents distinct signature efficient phonon-mediated polariton-dark-exciton interactions.
