Description

The transition-metal dichalcogenide TiSe$_2$ is a layered material with a charge density wave (CDW) transition temperature around 200 K. Its origin is still a matter of debate. Using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) and scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy (STM/STS), the influence of sulfur concentration in TiSe$_{2-x}$S$_x$ is studied. While TiS$_2$ does not show a CDW phase, the CDW in TiSe$_{2-x}$S$_x$ is not strongly perturbed. With ARPES, we study the evolution of band dispersion and CDW gap size as a function of temperature and sulfur concentration. STM and STS monitor the long-range coherence of the CDW as a function of sulfur substitutions. These observations allow enhancing our understanding of CDW formation.
