Structural phase transition and superconductivity hierarchy in 1T-TaS2 under pressure up to 100 GPa
Abstract The adoption of high pressure not only reinforces the comprehension of the structure and exotic electronic states of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) but also promotes the discovery of intriguing phenomena. Here, 1T-TaS2 was investigated up to 100 GPa, and re-enhanced superconductivi...
