ARPES study on the electronic structure of VTe2 with double zigzag chains

ORAL

Abstract

Layered transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) has been a well-known system to host a variety of charge density waves (CDW) reflecting its quasi-two-dimensionality. More recently, there has been increasing interest in spin-orbit coupling effect and topological aspects of TMDC. VTe2 has a trigonal CdI2-type structure (so-called 1T phase) at high temperature, consisting of trigonal layers formed by edge-sharing VTe6 octahedra. Below ~485 K, it undergoes a peculiar structural phase transition to the monoclinic 1T” phase. In this phase, VTe2 exhibits the 3×1×3 superstructure characterized by the formation of double zigzag chains of vanadium [1], which has been discussed in terms of CDW. In this talk, we report on the peculiar modification of the electronic structures via the 1T-1T” phase transition clarified by utilizing angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) and first-principles calculations.
