We investigate electronic instabilities in 2H-TaS\textsubscript{2} and a self-intercalated variant, 2H$^\dagger$-Ta\textsubscript{1+$\delta$}S\textsubscript{2}. In conventional samples, which we determine to be slightly hole-doped, spectral…

In cuprate high-temperature superconductors, an antiferromagnetic Mott insulating state can be destabilized toward unconventional superconductivity by either hole- or electron-doping. In addition to these two electronic phases there is now…
