The symmetry of a crystal governs physical properties such as the photogalvanic effect (PGE). Specifically, the emergence of the circular PGE (CPGE) requires a particular symmetry breaking. While monolayer ReSe2 exhibits inversion symmetry in its most stable structure, a metastable stacking order breaks this symmetry, leading to the theoretical expectation of CPGE, which remains experimentally unverified. This study aims to demonstrate CPGE in non-centrosymmetric ReSe2 and clarify the correlation between its optical responses and stacking order.
