R. Liu et al., MOMENTUM-DEPENDENT SPECTRAL CHANGES INDUCED BY THE CHARGE-DENSITY-WAVE IN 2H-TASE2 AND THE IMPLICATION ON THE CDW MECHANISM, Physical review letters, 80(26), 1998, pp. 5762-5765
We report a high energy and high angular resolution angle resolved pho
toemission study of 2H-TaSe2 at temperatures both above and below the
charge-density-wave (CDW) transition. In the normal state, an extended
saddle band very close to the Fermi energy was observed. The CDW-indu
ced energy gap is near zero on a well defined Fermi surface and large
in the extended saddle band region. The implication of these results o
n the CDW mechanism is discussed.
