We investigated the Γ-valley states in the valence band of a WSe2/MoS2 hetero-bilayer (HBL). We fabricated van der Waals tunnel junctions of HBL/few-layer h-BN/p+-MoS2 and measured tunneling current from p+-MoS2 to HBL. We observed peak structures in current-voltage curves, which corresponds to resonant tunneling into the Γ-valley states of HBL. These peaks emerged at different voltage position from that of monolayer (ML) WSe2, suggesting that there is a difference between the band structures of HBL and ML-WSe2.
