We demonstrate that a single layer of MoSe_{2} encapsulated by hexagonal boron nitride can act as an electrically switchable mirror at cryogenic temperatures, reflecting up to 85% of incident light at the excitonic resonance. This high reflectance is a direct consequence of the excellent coherence properties of excitons in this atomically thin semiconductor. We show that the MoSe_{2} monolayer exhibits power-and wavelength-dependent nonlinearities that stem from exciton-based lattice heating in the case of continuous-wave excitation and exciton-exciton interactions when fast, pulsed laser excitation is used.
