Most metallic transition metal dichalcogenides undergo charge density wave (CDW) instabilities with similar or identical ordering vectors in bulk and in single layer, albeit with different critical temperatures. Metallic 1T-TiTe$_2$ is a…
Single layers of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) are excellent candidates for electronic applications beyond the graphene platform; many of them exhibit novel properties including charge density waves (CDWs) and magnetic ordering.…
Properties of two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides are highly sensitive to the presence of defects in the crystal structure. A detailed understanding of defect structure may lead to control of material properties through defect…
Collective phenomena in solids can be sensitive to the dimensionality of the system; a case of special interest is VSe2, which shows a (r7 x r3) charge density wave (CDW) in the single layer with the three-fold symmetry in the normal phase…
One of important challenges in condensed-matter physics is to realize new quantum states of matter by manipulating the dimensionality of materials, as represented by the discovery of high-temperature superconductivity in atomic-layer…
A number of intriguing phenomena, including exciton condensation, orbital ordering, and emergence of chirality, have been proposed to accompany charge-density-wave (CDW) formation in the layered transition metal dichalcogenide…
The exact microscopic origin, symmetry, and thermal melting mechanism of the charge density wave (CDW) phase in TiSe$_{2}$ remain a subject of intense debate, particularly regarding the presence of chiral structural order and a multi-step…
The room temperature ``metallic'' properties of the quasi-one-dimensional charge density wave system (TaSe4)2I differ markedly from those expected of either a Fermi or a Luttinger Liquid. We discuss evidence for the simplest possible…
Using scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy, for a monolayer of transition metal dichalcogenide H-NbS$_2$ grown by molecular beam epitaxy on graphene, we provide unambiguous evidence for a charge density wave (CDW) with a…
We report on depinning of nearly-commensurate charge-density waves in 1T-TaS2 thin-films at room temperature. A combination of the differential current-voltage measurements with the low-frequency noise spectroscopy provide unambiguous means…
Two-dimensional (2D) atomic materials possess very different properties from their bulk counterparts. While changes in the single-particle electronic properties have been extensively investigated, modifications in the many-body collective…
Hexagonally deformed Fermi surfaces and strong nesting, found in topological insulators (TIs) such as $Bi_2Se_3$ and $Bi_2Te_3$, have led to several predictions of the existence of Density Wave order in these systems. Recent evidence for…
We studied TbTe$_{3}$ using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) in the temperature range of 298 - 355 K. As seen in previous STM measurements on RTe$_{3}$ compounds, our measurements detect a unidirectional charge density wave state (CDW)…
An interaction between electrons and lattice vibrations (phonons) results in two fundamental quantum phenomena in solids: in three dimensions it can turn a metal into a superconductor whereas in one dimension it can turn a metal into an…
Contradictory experiments have been reported about the dimensionality effect on the charge-density-wave transition in 2H NbSe$_2$. While scanning tunnelling experiments on single layers grown by molecular beam epitaxy measure a…
Charge density wave (CDW) is a collective quantum phenomenon in metals and features a wave-like modulation of the conduction electron density. A microscopic understanding and experimental control of this many-body electronic state in…
Layered transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are ideal systems for exploring the effects of dimensionality on correlated electronic phases such as charge density wave (CDW) order and superconductivity. In bulk NbSe2 a CDW sets in at TCDW…
The existence of a charge density wave (CDW) in transition metal dichalcogenide CuS$_2$ has remained undetermined since its first experimental synthesis nearly 50 years ago. Despite conflicting experimental literature regarding its low…
Since the emergence of monolayer graphene as a promising two-dimensional material, many other monolayer and few-layer materials have been investigated extensively. An experimental study of few-layer Si2Te3 was recently reported, showing…
We report experimental evidence of charge density wave (CDW) transition in monolayer 1T-VTe$_2$ film. 4$\times$4 reconstruction peaks are observed by low energy electron diffraction below the transition temperature $T_{CDW}$ = 186 K.…
