Ultrafast Modulations And Detection of a Ferro-rotational Charge Density Wave Using Time-resolved Electric Quadrupole Second Harmonic Generation

Abstract

We show the ferro-rotational nature of the commensurate charge density wave (CCDW) in $1T$-${\mathrm{TaS}}_2$ and track its dynamic modulations by temperature-dependent and time-resolved electric quadrupole rotation anisotropy-second harmonic generation (EQ RA-SHG), respectively. The ultrafast modulations manifest as the breathing and the rotation of the EQ RA-SHG patterns at three frequencies around the reported single CCDW amplitude mode frequency. A sudden shift of the triplet frequencies and a dramatic increase in the breathing and rotation magnitude further reveal a photo-induced transient CDW phase across a critical pump fluence of ~ 0.5 mJ/cm${}^2$.
