Role of a higher-dimensional interaction in stabilizing charge density waves in quasi-one-dimensional NbSe3 revealed by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy

Abstract: Utilizing a high energy resolution micro-focused laser with a photon energy of 6.3 eV we investigate charge density waves (CDWs) in the archetypal quasi-1D material NbSe3 using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES). Doing so allows an exceptionally detailed view into the electronic structure of this complex multi-band system and reveals unambiguously the presence of CDW gaps at the Fermi level (EF). By employing a tight-binding model of the electronic structure, we reveal that the formation of thes… Show more

“…The pseudo-gap regime persists until a full IMT occurs at E = E IMT , when the gap ∆ collapses to zero in a strongly discontinuous transition. Unambiguous observation of a pseudogap in the NbSe 3 system was recently made [39,40], consistent with our model in the small-field limit.…”

“…In general, such warped Fermi surface contours are characteristic of a strong anisotropy in the electronic hopping parameters and are routinely observed in low-dimensional materials. A small warping corresponds to a low coupling between chains (1D) or planes (2D) along the relevant real-space direction 34,35 . In the case of the present outof-plane dispersion, the narrowing of the warping in the k z direction corresponds to a reduction of the interlayer hopping in the low-temperature phase.…”

“…This is also in accord with the recently published ARPES measurements. These show that both CDW gaps persist well above their onset temperatures and that gradual loss of long-range phase coherence takes place with rising temperature rather than the reduction of the CDW amplitudes 7 .…”

“…It also exhibits interesting transport properties, in particular sliding of its two charge density waves (CDW) in an external electric field 3 . As a result it was thoroughly studied in the past by a variety of different techniques from X-ray diffraction 1,4,5 , Selected Area Electron Diffraction (SADF) Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) 6 , Angle Resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy (ARPES) [7][8][9] as well as Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM) [10][11][12][13][14][15] . Each of the CDW modes, with q 1 = (0.0, 0.243, 0.0) and q 2 = (0.5, 0.263, 0.5) with onset temperatures T 1 = 144 K and T 2 = 59 K, were originally suggested 1 to selectively modulate one of the three available types of trigonal-prismatic (TP) columns, which form the monoclinic unit cell of the NbSe 3 basic structure (a 0 = 10.009 Å, b 0 = 3.480 Å, c 0 = 15.629 Å, β 0 = 109.47 • , space group P2 1 /m) 1,12 .…”
