We report the first direct spectroscopic evidence for coherent electronic coupling between excitons and trions in atomically thin transition metal dichalcogenides, specifically monolayer MoSe2. Signatures of coupling appear as isolated cross-peaks in two-color pump-probe spectra, and the line shape of the peaks reveals that the coherent coupling originates from many-body interactions. Excellent agreement between the experiment and density matrix calculations suggests that coherent exciton-trion coupling leads to the formation of a correlated state with a remarkably large binding energy.
