The charge density wave phase transition of 1T-TiSe2 is studied by angle-resolved photoemission over a wide temperature range. An important chemical potential shift which strongly evolves with temperature is evidenced. In the framework of the exciton condensate phase, the detailed temperature dependence of the associated order parameter is extracted. Having a mean-field-like behaviour at low temperature, it exhibits a non-zero value above the transition, interpreted as the signature of strong excitonic fluctuations, reminiscent of the pseudo-gap phase of high temperature superconductors. Integrated intensity around the Fermi level is found to display a trend similar to the measured resistivity and is discussed within the model.

The controversy regarding the precise nature of the high-temperature phase of 1T-TiSe2 lasts for decades. It has intensified in recent times when new evidence for the excitonic origin of the low-temperature charge-density wave state started to unveil
. Here we address the problem of the high-temperature phase through precise measurements and detailed analysis of the optical response of 1T-TiSe2 single crystals. The separate responses of electron and hole subsystems are identified and followed in temperature. We show that neither semiconductor nor semimetal pictures can be applied in their generic forms as the scattering for both types of carriers is in the vicinity of the Ioffe-Regel limit with decay rates being comparable to or larger than the offsets of band extrema. The nonmetallic temperature dependence of transport properties comes from the anomalous temperature dependence of scattering rates. Near the transition temperature the heavy electrons and the light holes contribute equally to the conductivity. This surprising coincidence is regarded as the consequence of dominant intervalley scattering that precedes the transition. The low-frequency peak in the optical spectra is identified and attributed to the critical softening of the L-point collective mode.
Using the dynamical mean-field approximation we investigate formation of excitonic condensate in the two-band Hubbard model in the vicinity of the spin-state transition. With temperature and band filling as the control parameters we realize all symme
try allowed spin-triplet excitonic phases, some exhibiting a ferromagnetic polarization. While the transitions are first-order at low temperatures, at elevated temperatures continuous transitions are found that give rise to a multi-critical point. Rapid but continuous transition between ferromagnetic and non-magnetic excitonic phases allows switching of uniform magnetization by small changes of chemical potential.
1T-TiSe2 has a semimetallic band structure at room temperature and undergoes phase transition to a triple-q charge density wave (CDW) state with a commensurate superlattice structure (2a * 2a * 2c) below Tc ~ 200 K at ambient pressure. This phase tra
nsition is caused by cooperative phenomena involving electron-phonon and electron-hole (excitonic) interactions, and cannot be described by a standard CDW framework. By Cu intercalation or the application of pressure, this phase transition temperature is suppressed and superconductivity (SC) appears. However, it is not clear what kind of order parameters are affected by these two procedures. We investigated the crystal structure of CuxTiSe2 and pressurized 1T-TiSe2 around the SC state by synchrotron x-ray diffraction on single crystals. In the high-temperature phase, the variation of structural parameters for the case of Cu intercalation and application of pressure are considerably different. Moreover, the relationship between the critical points of the CDW phase transition and the SC dome are also different for the two cases. The excitonic interaction appears to play an important role in the P-T phase diagram of 1T-TiSe2, but not in the x-T phase diagram.
The correlation between electronic and crystal structures of 1T-TiSe2 in the charge density wave (CDW) state is studied by x-ray diffraction. Three families of reflections are used to probe atomic displacements and the orbital asymmetry in Se. Two di
stinct onset temperatures are found, TCDW and a lower T* indicative for an onset of Se out-of-plane atomic displacements. T* coincides with a DC resistivity maximum and the onset of the proposed gyrotropic electronic structure. However, no indication for chirality is found. The relation between the atomic displacements and the transport properties is discussed in terms of Ti 3d and Se 4p states that only weakly couple to the CDW order.
The simultaneous condensation of electronic and structural degrees of freedom gives rise to new states of matter, including superconductivity and charge-density-wave formation. When exciting such a condensed system, it is commonly assumed that the ul
trafast laser pulse disturbs primarily the electronic order, which in turn destabilizes the atomic structure. Contrary to this conception, we show here that structural destabilization of few atoms causes melting of the macroscopic ordered charge-density wave in 1T-TiSe2. Using ultrafast pump-probe non-resonant and resonant X-ray diffraction, we observe full suppression of the Se 4p orbital order and the atomic structure at excitation energies more than one order of magnitude below the suggested excitonic binding energy. Complete melting of the charge-density wave occurs 4-5 times faster than expected from a purely electronic charge-screening process, strongly suggesting a structurally assisted breakup of excitonic correlations. Our experimental data clarifies several questions on the intricate coupling between structural and electronic order in stabilizing the charge-density-wave in 1T-TiSe2. The results further show that electron-phonon-coupling can lead to different, energy dependent phase-transition pathways in condensed matter systems, opening new possibilities in the conception of non-equilibrium phenomena at the ultrafast scale.
