摘要:

详细研究了Cu嵌入对1 \textit{T} -Cu $_x$ TiSe $_2$中电荷密度波(CDW)的微观影响.扫描隧道显微镜和光谱(STM/STS)揭示了一个独特的,铜驱动的电荷有序相的空间织构,与能量依赖的CDW补丁和尖锐的$π$ -相移域壁($π$ DW)的外观。拼块的能量和掺杂依赖性直接与由于Cu嵌入物而导致的不均匀的电势景观有关。它们意味着一个CDW间隙与不寻常的功能,包括一个大的振幅,费米能级以下的开放和转移到更高的结合能与电子掺杂。与拼块不同,$π$ DW独立于插入的Cu分布而发生。它们在整个研究的相图中保持原子级的尖锐性,并且在超导和非超导样品中都发生。这些结果提供了独特的原子尺度上的CDW基态的见解,质疑存在的无公度CDW畴壁,并有助于了解其形成机制和相互作用的超导性。

英文摘要:

We report a detailed study of the microscopic effects of Cu intercalation on the charge density wave (CDW) in 1\textit{T}-Cu$_x$TiSe$_2$. Scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy (STM/STS) reveal a unique, Cu driven spatial texturing of the charge ordered phase, with the appearance of energy dependent CDW patches and sharp $π$-phase shift domain walls ($π$DWs). The energy and doping dependencies of the patchwork are directly linked to the inhomogeneous potential landscape due to the Cu intercalants. They imply a CDW gap with unusual features, including a large amplitude, the opening below the Fermi level and a shift to higher binding energy with electron doping. Unlike the patchwork, the $π$DWs occur independently of the intercalated Cu distribution. They remain atomically sharp throughout the investigated phase diagram and occur both in superconducting and non-superconducting specimen. These results provide unique atomic-scale insight on the CDW ground state, questioning the existence of incommensurate CDW domain walls and contributing to understand its formation mechanism and interplay with superconductivity.
