Coexistence of Multiple Stacking Charge Density Waves in Kagome Superconductor ${\mathrm{CsV}}_3{\mathrm{Sb}}_5$ (2201.05211v4)

Published 13 Jan 2022 in cond-mat.supr-con and cond-mat.str-el

Abstract: The recently discovered Kagome family ${\mathrm{AV}}_3{\mathrm{Sb}}_5$ (A = K, Rb, Cs) exhibits rich physical phenomena, including non-trivial topological electronic structure, giant anomalous Hall effect, charge density waves (CDW) and superconductivity. Notably, CDW in ${\mathrm{AV}}_3{\mathrm{Sb}}_5$ is evidenced to intertwine with its superconductivity and topology, but its nature remains elusive. Here, we combine x-ray scattering experiments and density-functional theory calculations to investigate the CDWs in ${\mathrm{CsV}}_3{\mathrm{Sb}}_5$ and demonstrate the coexistence of 2 $\times$ 2 $\times$ 2 and 2 $\times$ 2 $\times$ 4 CDW stacking phases. Competition between these CDW phases is revealed by tracking the temperature evolution of CDW intensities, which also manifests in different transition temperatures during warming- and cooling measurements. We also identify a meta-stable quenched state of ${\mathrm{CsV}}_3{\mathrm{Sb}}_5$ after fast-cooling process. Our study demonstrates the coexistence of competing CDW stacking in ${\mathrm{CsV}}_3{\mathrm{Sb}}_5$, offering new insights in understanding the novel properties of this system.
