In bulk samples and few layer flakes, the transition metal dichalcogenides NbS$_2$ and NbSe$_2$ assume the H polytype structure with trigonal prismatic coordination of the Nb atom. Recently, however, single and few layers of 1T-NbSe$_2$…

We study the structural, electronic and vibrational properties of single-layer 1TNbSe$_2$ from first principles. Within the generalized gradient approximation, the 1T polytype is highly unstable with respect to the 2H. The DFT+U method…

Charge-density-wave (CDW) instability and pressure-induced superconductivity in bulk 1T-NbS2 are predicted theoretically by first-principles calculations. We reveal a CDW instability towards the formation of a stable commensurate CDW order,…

We investigate the low-temperature charge-density-wave (CDW) state of bulk TaS$_2$ with a fully self-consistent DFT+U approach, over which the controversy has remained unresolved regarding the out-of-plane metallic band. By examining the…

Monolayer 1T-TaS$_2$ hosts a star-of-David charge-density wave (CDW) that stabilizes a low-temperature Mott-insulating state. Recent time-resolved spectroscopies indicate a coupling between the CDW amplitude mode and the electronic…

Interplay between fermiology and electron correlation is crucial for realizing exotic quantum phases. Transition-metal dichalcogenide (TMD) 1T-TaS2 has sparked a tremendous attention owing to its unique Mott-insulating phase coexisting with…

Combination of low-dimensionality and electron correlation is vital for exotic quantum phenomena such as the Mott-insulating phase and high-temperature superconductivity. Transition-metal dichalcogenide (TMD) 1T-TaS2 has evoked great…

Charge density wave (CDW) phases are symmetry-reduced states of matter in which a periodic modulation of the electronic charge frequently leads to drastic changes of the electronic spectrum, including the emergence of energy gaps. We…

We present a polarization-resolved, high-resolution Raman scattering study of the three consecutive charge density wave (CDW) regimes in $1T$-TaS$_2$ single crystals, supported by \textit{ab initio} calculations. Our analysis of the spectra…

The applicability of DFT+$U$ to the star-of-David phase of $1T$-TaS$_2$ is examined. The viability of a Mott phase as a ground state for the bulk of this material is briefly discussed in light of the available experimental evidence.

Using ab-initio calculations we reveal the nature of the insulating phase recently found experimentally in monolayer 1T-NbSe$_2$. We find soft phonon modes in a large parts of the Brillouin zone indicating the strong-coupling nature of a…

We present the orbital resolved electronic properties of structurally distorted 1T-TaS2 monolayers. After optimizing the crystal structures, we obtain the lattice parameters and atomic positions in the star-of-David structure, and show the…

1$T$-TaSe$_2$ is widely believed to host a Mott metal-insulator transition in the charge density wave (CDW) phase according to the spectroscopic observation of a band gap that extends across all momentum space. Previous investigations…

Transition metal dichalcogenides are rich in their structural phases, e.g. 1T-TaS2 and 1T-TaSe2 form charge density wave (CDW) under low temperature with interesting and exotic properties. Here, we present a systematic study of different…

Layered transition metal dichalcogenide 1T-NbSe_2 is a good candidate to explore the charge density wave (CDW) and Mott physics. However, the effects of stacking orders and interlayer coupling in CDW 1T-NbSe_2 are still less explored and…

Here we investigate how charge density waves (CDW), inherent to a monolayer, are effected by creating twisted van der Waals structures. Homobilayers of metallic transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), at small twist angles where there is…

We investigate the electronic properties of charge density wave (CDW) heterostructures out of monolayers of 1T-NbSe$_2$ and 1T-Ta$X_2$ (where, $X=$ S and Se) using first-principles followed by dynamical calculations. The CDW-ordered crystal…

Understanding Mott insulators and charge density waves (CDW) is critical for both fundamental physics and future device applications. However, the relationship between these two phenomena remains unclear, particularly in systems close to…

Mott state in 1T-TaS2 is predicted to host quantum spin liquids (QSL). However, its insulating mechanism is controversial due to complications from interlayer coupling. Here, we study the Mott state in monolayer 1T-NbSe2, an electronic…

We investigate the charge density wave (CDW) instability in single and double layers, as well as in the bulk 2H-NbSe$_{2}$. We demonstrate that the density functional theory correctly describes the metallic CDW state in the bulk…
