摘要:

大多数金属过渡金属二硫属化物经历电荷密度波(CDW)不稳定性,具有相似或相同的有序矢量,尽管具有不同的临界温度。金属1 T-TiTe $_2$是一个显著的例外,因为它没有显示出大量电荷密度波形成的证据,但它显示出单层形式的稳定的$2\times2$重构。这种3D-2D过渡的机制尚不清楚,尽管来自衬底的应变和交换相互作用已被指出为可能的形成机制。在这里,通过执行非微扰非谐计算与梯度校正和混合泛函,我们解释的厚度行为的过渡在1 T-TiTe $_2$。我们表明,发生的CDW在单层TiTe $_2$发生的非微扰非谐性和交换增强的电子-声子相互作用的相互作用,在单层比在散装。最后,我们研究了单层CDW相的电子和结构性质,并提供了其电子结构,声子色散以及红外和拉曼活性声子模式的完整描述。

英文摘要:

Most metallic transition metal dichalcogenides undergo charge density wave (CDW) instabilities with similar or identical ordering vectors in bulk and in single layer, albeit with different critical temperatures. Metallic 1T-TiTe$_2$ is a remarkable exception as it shows no evidence of charge density wave formation in bulk, but it displays a stable $2\times2$ reconstruction in single-layer form. The mechanism for this 3D-2D crossover of the transition is still unclear, although strain from the substrate and the exchange interaction have been pointed out as possible formation mechanisms. Here, by performing non-perturbative anharmonic calculations with gradient corrected and hybrid functionals, we explain the thickness behaviour of the transition in 1T-TiTe$_2$. We demonstrate that the occurrence of the CDW in single-layer TiTe$_2$ occurs from the interplay of non-perturbative anharmonicity and an exchange enhancement of the electron-phonon interaction, larger in the single layer than in the bulk. Finally, we study the electronic and structural properties of the single-layer CDW phase and provide a complete description of its electronic structure, phonon dispersion as well as infrared and Raman active phonon modes.
