Data for "Chirality Switching in 1T‐TaS2 by Highly Charged Ion Irradiation"

Contents of this data set

This repository contains the processed experimental data as well as the evaluation procedure applied to create the figures published in "Chirality Switching in 1T‐TaS2 by Highly Charged Ion Irradiation". 

Context and methodology

• A TaS2 surface was studied in ARPES before and after irradiation with highly charged ions (Xe8+) and changes in the band structure upon ion irradiation are observed. Additional energy-k maps are recorded during the irradiation to observe and analyse fluence-dependent trends.
• The data was created at DESY's PETRA III synchrotron (P04 beamline, ASPHERE III end station). Beamtime was allocated for proposal I-20250527. The data was recorded using the SES software by ScientaOmicron, converted via HDF5 format and finally to ASCII files (included in the uploaded file).

Technical details

• The dataset includes one analysis file in .dgraph-format (see below). Each figure created from the original data (excluding schematics) is prepared using this file. The data is sturctured in a folder-tree labelled according to the figure number of the final figure.
• DataGraph from Visual Data Tools is required to open this data set. The data was created using version 5.5.2beta.
