In many transition-metal oxides and dichalcogenides, the electronic and lattice degrees of freedom are strongly coupled, giving rise to remarkable phenomena, such as metal-insulator transition (MIT) and charge-density wave (CDW) order. We…
We investigate the structural and electronic reconstruction associated with the commensurate charge-density-wave (CCDW) phase in bulk and monolayer 1T-TaS2 using density functional theory (DFT) and Wannier-based tight-binding modeling.…
Electronic flat bands serve as a unique platform to achieve strongly-correlated phases. The emergence of a flat band around the Fermi level in 1T-TaS$_2$ in accompany with the development of a $\sqrt{13}\times\sqrt{13}$ charge density wave…
We use scanning tunneling microscopy to study the temperature evolution of the atomic-scale properties of the nearly-commensurate charge density wave (NC-CDW) state of the low-dimensional material, 1T-TaS$_2$. Our measurements at 203 K, 300…
1$T$-TaSe$_2$ is a prototypical charge density wave (CDW) material for which electron-phonon coupling and associated lattice distortion play an important role in driving and stabilizing the CDW phase. Here, we investigate the lattice…
A charge-density-wave (CDW) is characterized by a dynamical order parameter consisting of a time-dependent amplitude and phase, which manifest as optically-active collective modes of the CDW phase. Studying the behaviour of such collective…
Bulk 1T-TaSe2 exhibits unusually high charge density wave (CDW) transition temperatures of 600 K and 473 K below which the material exists in the incommensurate (I-CDW) and the commensurate (C-CDW) charge-density-wave phases, respectively.…
Quantum materials with tunable correlated and/or topological electronic states, such as the electronic Kagome lattice, provide an ideal platform to study the exotic quantum properties. However, the real-space investigations on the…
TaTe$_4$, a metallic charge-density wave (CDW) material discovered decades ago, has attracted renewed attention due to its rich interesting properties such as pressure-induced superconductivity and candidate non-trivial topological phase.…
The charge density wave (CDW) in 1T-TiSe2 accompanied by the periodic lattice distortion has a nontrivial symmetry configuration. The symmetry is important as an indication of the mechanism and a cue for experimental probes. We examine the…
We report a significant enhancement of superconducting transition temperature ($\textit{T}_\textrm{c}$) of transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) superconductor $\textrm{NbTe}_2$ from 0.56 K to 2.8 K. Detailed x-ray structure analysis…
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…
Surface confined electronic states provide a fertile ground for discovering emergent phenomena that have no counterpart in the bulk, offering new routes to manipulate correlations, symmetry breaking, and dimensionality at the atomic scale.…
Using temperature dependent Raman spectroscopy we address the question of how the transition from bulk to few atomic layers affects the charge density wave (CDW) phases in 1T-TaS2. We find that for crystals with thickness larger than approx…
Charge density waves (CDW) and their concomitant periodic lattice distortions (PLD) govern the electronic properties in many layered transition-metal dichalcogenides. In particular, 1T-TaS2 undergoes a metal-to-insulator phase transition as…
The natural van der Waals heterostructure 4H$_b$-TaS$_2$ composed of alternating 1T- and 1H-TaS$_2$ layers serves as a platform for investigating the electronic correlations and layer-dependent properties of novel quantum materials. The…
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 study the coupled charge-lattice dynamics in the commensurate charge density wave (CDW) phase of the layered compound 1T-TaS$_{2}$ driven by an ultrashort laser pulse. For describing its electronic structure, we employ a tight-binding…
Femtosecond time-resolved core-level photoemission spectroscopy with a free-electron laser is used to measure the atomic-site specific charge-order dynamics in the charge-density-wave/Mott insulator 1T-TaS2. After strong photoexcitation, a…
We present angle-resolved photoemission experiments on 1T-TiSe2 at temperatures ranging from 13K to 288K. The data evidence a dramatic renormalization of the conduction band below 100K, whose origin can be explained with the exciton…
