Abstract
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.
