Quasi-one-dimensional metallic band dispersion in the commensurate charge density wave of 1T-TaS2
2017
The commensurate charge density wave (CDW) in the layered compound $1T$-TaS$_2$ has hitherto mostly been treated as a quasi two-dimensional phenomenon. Recent band structure calculations have, however, predicted that the CDW coexists with a nearly one-dimensional metallic dispersion perpendicular to the crystal planes. Using synchrotron radiation based angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, we show that this metallic band does in fact exist. Its occupied band width is in excellent agreement with predictions for a simple $\tau_c$ stacking order of the CDW between adjacent layers and its periodicity in the $c$ direction is $2 \pi / c$.
