Photoinduced multistage phase transitions in Ta2NiSe5

Examples of photoinduced insulator-to-metal transitions with a long-lived metallic state are rare. Here, the authors report a photoinduced steady metallic state in Ta2NiSe5, characterized by a lattice structure distinct from that of equilibrium states and thermally stable up to 350 K.
