Manipulation of band gap in 1T-TiSe2 via rubidium deposition

The 1T-TiSe2 is a two-dimensional charge-density-wave(CDW)material that attracts great interest.A small band gap locates at the Fermi level separating the Ti d-bands and Se p-bands,which makes 1T-TiSe2 a promising candidate for realizing excitonic condensation.Here,we studied the band gap in lT-TiSe2 using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy(ARPES).Instead of only focusing on the in-plane band dispersions,we obtained the detailed band dispersions of both conduction and valance bands along the out-of-plane direction.We found that the conduction and valance bands split into multiple sub-bands in the CDW state due to band folding.As a result,the band gap between the Ti d-bands and Se p-bands reduces to~25 meV and becomes a direct gap in the CDW state.More intriguingly,such band gap can be further reduced by the rubidium deposition.The band structure becomes semimetallic in the rubidium-doped sample.Meanwhile,exotic gapless behaviors were observed at the p-d band crossing.Our result characterized the band gap of lT-TiSe2 in three-dimensional Brillouin zone with unpreceded precision.It also suggests a closing of band gap or a potential band inversion in 1T-TiSe2 driven by rubidium deposition.
