Spectroscopic signatures of mode-selective electron-phonon coupling in transient reflectivity change on charge-density-wave TiSe$_2$
Year: 2026
Type: preprint
Abstract: We report on time- and spectrally resolved pump-probe spectroscopy measurement on the charge-density wave (CDW) state of TiSe$_2$ at helium temperatures. The non-oscillatory component of the spectrally resolved signals exhibit a sign reversal near 1.5 eV, which was interpreted as a redshift of the optical transition energy originated from the interband transition between the Se $p$-based valence band to the Ti $d$-derived conduction band. Furthermore, the oscillatory components exhibit distinct spectral dependences between the optical phonons and the CDW-derived modes, suggesting the mode-selective coupling.
