Observation of a Charge Density Wave Incommensuration Near the Superconducting Dome in
Abstract
X-ray diffraction was employed to study the evolution of the charge density wave (CDW) in CuxTiSe2 as a function of copper intercalation in order to clarify the relationship between the CDW and superconductivity. In this paper, the results show a CDW incommensuration arising at an intercalation value coincident with the onset of superconductivity at around x = 0.055(5) . Additionally, it was found that the charge density wave persists to higher intercalant concentrations than previously assumed, demonstrating that the CDW does not terminate inside the superconducting dome. A charge density wave peak was observed in samples up to x = 0.091(6) , the highest copper concentration examined in this study. Lastly, the phase diagram established in this work suggests that charge density wave incommensuration may play a role in the formation of the superconducting state.
