Abstract
Résumé

Recent experiments have shown that the high-temperature incommensurate (I) charge density wave (CDW) phase of 1T-TaS $_{2}$ can be photoinduced from the lower-temperature, nearly commensurate CDW state. In a first step, several independent regions exhibiting I-CDW phase modulations nucleate and grow. After coalescence, these regions form a multidomain I-CDW phase that undergoes coarsening dynamics, i.e. a progressive increase of the domain size or I-CDW correlation length. Using time-resolved X-ray diffraction, we show that the wave vector of the photoinduced I-CDW phase is shorter than in the I-CDW phase at equilibrium, and progressively increases towards its equilibrium value as the correlation length increases. We interpret this behaviour as a consequence of a self-doping of the photoinduced I-CDW, following the presence of trapped electrons in the vicinity of CDW dislocation sites. Putting together results of the present and past experiments, we develop a scenario in which the I-CDW dislocations are created during the coalescence of the I-CDW phase regions.

Plusieurs expériences récentes ont montré que les impulsions laser dans les domaines optique ou proche infrarouge permettent de déclencher des transitions entre états à onde de densité de charge (ODC) dans 1T-TaS $_{2}$ . Nous nous intéressons ici à la transition entre l’état à ODC presque commensurable (NC) et l’état à ODC incommensurable (I), habituellement observé au-dessus de 350 K. Lors de cette transition, plusieurs régions présentant les modulations de l’état I se forment et se développent. Lorsque la coalescence a lieu, ces régions se muent en domaines de la phase I photoinduite de 1T-TaS $_{2}$ , caractérisés chacun par un phasage particulier de l’ODC I. La phase I ainsi fragmentée en domaines subit alors une dynamique de mûrissement, c’est-à-dire une augmentation progressive de la taille de domaine ou encore de la longueur de corrélation de l’ODC I. En utilisant la diffraction des rayons X résolue en temps, nous montrons que le vecteur d’onde de l’ODC I photoinduite est plus court que dans l’ODC I observée à l’équilibre thermodynamique. Celui-ci s’allonge progressivement vers sa valeur d’équilibre, en même temps que la longueur de corrélation de l’ODC I augmente. Nous attribuons ce comportement à un autodopage de l’ODC I photoinduite, dû à la présence d’électrons piégés au voisinage de dislocations de l’ODC I. En réalisant une synthèse des résultats des différentes expériences menées jusqu’à présent, nous développons un scénario dans lequel les dislocations de l’ODC I sont créées au moment de la coalescence.
