Mottness Collapse in 1T-TaS_{2−x}Se_{x} Transition-Metal Dichalcogenide: An Interplay between Localized and Itinerant Orbitals

The layered transition-metal dichalcogenide 1T-TaS_{2} has been recently found to undergo a Mott-insulator-to-superconductor transition induced by high pressure, charge doping, or isovalent substitution. By combining scanning tunneling microscopy measurements and first-principles calculations, we in...
