Atomic lattice disorder in charge-density-wave phases of exfoliated dichalcogenides (1T-TaS <sub>2</sub> )
Significance Low-dimensional materials, such as 1T-TaS 2 , permit unique phases that arise through electronic and structural reshaping known, respectively, as charge-density waves and periodic lattice distortions (PLDs). Determining the atomic structure of PLDs is critical toward understanding the origin of these charge-ordered phases and their effect on electronic properties. …
