We report an in-depth Angle Resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy (ARPES) study on $2H$-TaS$_2$, a canonical incommensurate Charge Density Wave (CDW) system. This study demonstrates that just as in related incommensurate CDW systems, $2H$-TaSe$_2$ and $2H$-NbSe$_2$, the energy gap ($Delta_{text{cdw}},$) of $2H$-TaS$_2$ is localized along the K-centered Fermi surface barrels and is particle-hole asymmetric. The persistence of $Delta_{text{cdw}},$ even at temperatures higher than the CDW transition temperature $it{T}_{text{cdw}},$ in $2H$-TaS$_2$, reflects the similar pseudogap (PG) behavior observed previously in $2H$-TaSe$_2$ and $2H$-NbSe$_2$. However, in sharp contrast to $2H$-NbSe$_2$, where $Delta_{text{cdw}},$ is non-zero only in the vicinity of a few hot spots on the inner K-centered Fermi surface barrels, $Delta_{text{cdw}},$ in $2H$-TaS$_2$ is non-zero along the entirety of both K-centered Fermi surface barrels. Based on a tight-binding model, we attribute this dichotomy in the momentum dependence and the Fermi surface specificity of $Delta_{text{cdw}},$ between otherwise similar CDW compounds to the different orbital orientations of their electronic states that are involved in CDW pairing. Our results suggest that the orbital selectivity plays a critical role in the description of incommensurate CDW materials.

The pressure evolution of the Raman active electronic excitations of the transition metal dichalcogenides 2H-TaS$_2$ is followed through the pressure phase diagram embedding incommensurate charge-density-wave and superconducting states. At high press
ure, the charge-density-wave is found to collapse at 8.5~GPa. In the coexisting charge-density-wave and superconducting orders, we unravel a strong in-gap superconducting mode, attributed to a Higgs mode, coexisting with the expected incoherent Cooper-pair breaking signature. The latter remains in the pure superconducting state reached above 8.5~GPa. Our report constitutes the first observation of such Raman active Higgs mode since the longstanding unique case 2H-NbSe$_2$.
A charge-density wave (CDW) state has a broken symmetry described by a complex order parameter with an amplitude and a phase. The conventional view, based on clean, weak-coupling systems, is that a finite amplitude and long-range phase coherence set
in simultaneously at the CDW transition temperature T$_{cdw}$. Here we investigate, using photoemission, X-ray scattering and scanning tunneling microscopy, the canonical CDW compound 2H-NbSe$_2$ intercalated with Mn and Co, and show that the conventional view is untenable. We find that, either at high temperature or at large intercalation, CDW order becomes short-ranged with a well-defined amplitude that impacts the electronic dispersion, giving rise to an energy gap. The phase transition at T$_{cdw}$ marks the onset of long-range order with global phase coherence, leading to sharp electronic excitations. Our observations emphasize the importance of phase fluctuations in strongly coupled CDW systems and provide insights into the significance of phase incoherence in `pseudogap states.
We present a state-of-the-art density functional theory (DFT) study which models crucial features of the partially disordered orbital order stacking in the prototypical layered transition metal dichalcogenide 1T-TaS2 . Our results not only show that
DFT models with realistic assumptions about the orbital order perpendicular to the layers yield band structures which agree remarkably well with experiments. They also demonstrate that DFT correctly predicts the formation of an excitation pseudo-gap which is commonly attributed to Mott-Hubbard type electron-electron correlations. These results highlight the importance of interlayer interactions in layered transition metal dichalcogenides and serve as an intriguing example of how disorder within an electronic crystal can give rise to pseudo-gap features.
As superconductors are thinned down to the 2D limit, their critical temperature $T_c$ typically decreases. Here we report the opposite behavior, a substantial enhancement of $T_c$ with decreasing thickness, in 2D crystalline superconductor 2H-TaS$_2$
. Remarkably, in the monolayer limit, $T_c$ increases to 3.4 K compared to 0.8 K in the bulk. Accompanying this trend in superconductivity, we observe suppression of the charge-density wave (CDW) transition with decreasing thickness. To explain these trends, we perform electronic structure calculations showing that a reduction of the CDW amplitude results in a substantial increase of the density of states at the Fermi energy, which contributes to the enhancement of $T_c$. Our results establish ultra-thin 2H-TaS$_2$ as an ideal platform to study the competition between CDW order and superconductivity.
We report the magnetoresistance of a charge-density wave (CDW) in $o$-TaS$_3$ whiskers at 4.2 K under a magnetic field up to 5.2 T. An anisotropic negative magnetoresistance is found in the nonlinear regime of current-voltage characteristics. The ang
le dependence of the magnetoresistance, studied by rotating the magnetic field upon the $c$-axis, exhibited a two-fold symmetry. The magnetoresistance amplitude exhibits maxima when the field is parallel to the $a$-axis, whereas it vanishes to the $b$-axis. The observed anisotropy may come from difference in interchain coupling of adjacent CDWs along the $a$- and $b$-axes. Comparison of the anisotropy to the scanning tunneling microscope image of CDWs allows us to provide a simple picture to explain the magnetoresistance in terms of delocalization of quantum interference of CDWs extending over the $b$-$c$ plane.
