Transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) $MX_2$ ($M$ = Ti, Nb, Ta; $X$ = S, Se, Te) exhibit a rich set of charge density wave (CDW) orders, which usually coexist and/or compete with superconductivity. The mechanisms of CDWs and…
We study the dependence of the dimensional character of the charge-density wave (CDW) in TiSe$_2$ by a controlled variation of the number of available charge carriers in the conduction band. A change of dimensionality is realised by H2O…
We report temperature-dependent transport and x-ray diffraction measurements of the influence of Ti hole doping on the charge density wave (CDW) in 1T-Ta(1-x)Ti(x)S(2). Confirming past studies, we find that even trace impurities eliminate…
