Charge-density wave (CDW) is one of the most fundamental quantum phenomena in solids. Different from ordinary metals in which only single particle excitations exist, CDW also has collective excitations and can carry electric current in a…
We study the coupling of light and the structural order parameter in the charge density wave (CDW) state of the layered transition-metal dichalcogenide, Tantalum Disulfide ($1T-\mathrm{TaS_2}$). Using time-dependent density functional…
Distinguishing and controlling the extent of Mottness is important for materials where the energy scales of the onsite Coulomb repulsion U and the bandwidth W are comparable. Here we report the ultrafast electronic dynamics of 1T-TaS$_2$ by…
Charge density wave (CDW) and their interplay with correlated and topological quantum states are forefront of condensed matter research. The 4$H_{b}$-TaS$_2$ is a CDW ordered quantum heterostructure that is formed by alternative stacking of…
Charge density waves (CDWs) underpin the electronic properties of many complex materials. Near-equilibrium CDW order is linearly coupled to a periodic, atomic-structural distortion, and the dynamics is understood in terms of amplitude and…
Ultra-thin 2D materials have shown complete paradigm shift of understanding of physical and electronic properties because of confinement effects, symmetry breaking and novel phenomena at nanoscale. Bulk 2H-TaS2 undergoes an incommensurate…
The strongly correlated charge density wave (CDW) phase of 1T-TiSe$_2$ is being extensively researched to verify the claims of a unique chiral order due to the presence of three equivalent Fermi wavevectors involved in the CDW formation.…
Understanding the coexistence, competition and/or cooperation between superconductivity and charge density waves (CDWs) in the transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) is an elusive goal which, when realized, promises to reveal fundamental…
1T-TaS$_2$ is a layered charge density wave (CDW) crystal exhibiting sharp phase transitions and associated resistance changes. These resistance steps could be exploited for information storage, underscoring the importance of controlling…
Emergence of topological states in strongly correlated systems, particularly two-dimensional (2D) transition-metal dichalcogenides, offers a platform for manipulating electronic properties in quantum materials. However, a comprehensive…
Surface reconstruction plays a vital role in determining the surface electronic structure and chemistry of semiconductors and metal oxides. However, it has been commonly believed that surface reconstruction does not occur in van der Waals…
The proximity-effect, whereby materials in contact appropriate each others electronic-properties, is widely used to induce correlated states, such as superconductivity or magnetism, at heterostructure interfaces. Thus far however,…
We investigate mechanically exfoliated thin 1T-TaS$_2$ with scanning tunneling microscopy at room temperature. Sample preparation without air exposure enables access to intrinsic charge-density-wave (CDW) phases of thin 1T-TaS$_2$. At room…
The transition metal dichalcogenide 1T-TaS$_2$ is well known to harbor a rich variety of charge density wave (CDW) distortions which are correlated with underlying lattice atom modulations. The long range CDW phases extend throughout the…
A charge density wave (CDW) represents an exotic state in which electrons are arranged in a long range ordered pattern in low-dimensional materials. Although our understanding of the fundamental character of CDW has been enriched after…
Photoexcitation is a powerful means in distinguishing different interactions and manipulating the states of matter, especially in complex quantum systems. As a well-known charge density wave (CDW) material, 1T-TaS2 has been widely studied…
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…
Domain walls (DWs) are singularities in an ordered medium that often host exotic phenomena such as charge ordering, insulator-metal transition, or superconductivity. The ability to locally write and erase DWs is highly desirable, as it…
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…
Proximity effect is a very powerful approach and has been widely applied to induce electron correlations such as: superconductivity, magnetism and spin-orbit effects at the interface of heterostructure quantum materials. However, proximity…
