Implication

Spectroscopy reveals substrate-dependent Luttinger liquid states in MoSe2 twin boundaries, indicating quantum confinement rather than charge density waves drives modulation.

Key Points

To resolve the physical origin of low-energy charge density modulations and electronic excitation states along 4|4P-type mirror twin boundaries in molybdenum diselenide.
Synthesized 4|4P-type mirror twin boundaries of varying lengths supported on graphene and gold substrates.
Employed low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy and scanning tunneling spectroscopy to probe spatial and energetic charge modulations.
Identified Friedel oscillations and quantum confinement effects as the mechanisms driving charge density modulations, ruling out charge density waves.
Observed characteristic signatures of a Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid in boundaries supported on graphene, while boundaries grown on gold exhibited conventional Fermi liquid behavior.
