The semimetallic or semiconducting nature of the transition metal dichalcogenide 1$T$-TiSe$_2$ remains under debate after many decades mainly due to the fluctuating nature of its 2 x 2 x 2 charge-density-wave (CDW) phase at room- temperature. In this letter, using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, we unambiguously demonstrate that the 1$T$-TiSe$_2$ normal state is semimetallic with ...

Spatially inhomogeneous electronic states are expected to be key ingredients for the emergence of superconducting phases in quantum materials hosting charge-density waves (CDWs). Prototypical materials are transitionmetal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) and among them, 1T-TiSe2 exhibiting intertwined CDW and superconducting states under Cu intercalation, pressure, or electrical gating. Although it...

Local resilience of the $1T\text{\ensuremath{-}}{\mathrm{TiSe}}_{2}$ charge density wave to Ti self-doping

In Ti-intercalated self-doped 1T−TiSe2 crystals, the charge density wave (CDW) superstructure induces two nonequivalent sites for Ti dopants. Recently, it has been shown that increasing Ti doping dramatically influences the CDW by breaking it into phase-shifted domains. Here, we report scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy experiments that reveal a dopant-site dependence of the CDW...

Three-dimensional momentum-resolved electronic structure of $1T\text{-}{\mathrm{TiSe}}_{2}:$ A combined soft-x-ray photoemission and density functional theory study

Vydrova, Z. ; Schwier, Eike Fabian ; Monney, Gaël ; Jaouen, Thomas ; Razzoli, Elia ; Monney, Claude ; Hildebrand, Baptiste ; Didiot, Clément ; Berger, Helmuth ; Schmitt, T. ; Strocov, V. N. ; Vanini, Fabiano ; Aebi, Philipp

1T−TiSe2 is a quasi-two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenide, which exhibits a charge density wave transition at a critical temperature of ∼200 K as well as low- temperature superconductivity induced by pressure or intercalation. The electronic energy dispersion measured by soft x-ray angle-resolved photoemission is not only momentum resolved parallel to the surface but also...

We report layer-resolved measurements of the unoccupied electronic structure of ultrathin MgO films grown on Ag(001). The metal-induced gap states at the metal/oxide interface, the oxide band gap, and a surface core exciton involving an image-potential state of the vacuum are revealed through resonant Auger spectroscopy of the MgKL23L23 Auger transition. Our results demonstrate how to obtain new...
