Ultrasound Evidence for a Low-Temperature Anomaly Inside the Superconducting State of 4Hb-TaS
Yongwei Li, Dmitri V. Efremov, Paul Leask +7
We report low-temperature ultrasound measurements on single crystals of the layered van der Waals superconductor 4Hb-TaS. Specific heat and ac magnetic susceptibility show a sh…
Trion gas on the surface of a failed excitonic insulator
Yuval Nitzav, Abigail Dishi, Himanshu Lohani +15
Trions, three-body bound states composed of an exciton and an additional charge, are typically fragile and require external excitation to form. Here, we report the spontaneous emer…
Light-induced trion-exciton competition revealed by ultrafast photoemission
Ittai Sidilkover, Nir Hen Levin, Yuval Nitzav +11
Strong Coulomb interactions in low-dimensional quantum materials give rise to emergent bound states such as excitons and trions. Trions are conventionally secondary excitations, re…
Microscopic evidence of dominant excitonic instability in Ta2NiSe5
Seokjin Bae, Arjun Raghavan, Irena Feldman +2
An excitonic insulator (EI) is a charge-neutral bosonic condensate of spontaneously formed electron-hole pairs. Exotic quantum phenomena such as dissipationless charge neutral tran…
Chiral charge density wave in 4Hb- and 1T-TaS: The Role of interlayer coupling
Roni Anna Gofman, Abigail Dishi, Hyeonhu Bae +12
We use micro-angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (micro-ARPES) to investigate chiral charge density waves (CDWs) in 4Hb-TaS with micron-scale spatial resolution. In the 1…
