Ultrafast charge ordering by self-amplified exciton–phonon dynamics in TiSe2

The physical origins of charge density waves in 1T-TiSe2 and their response to ultrafast excitation have long been a topic of theoretical and experimental debate. Here the authors present an ab initio theory that successfully captures the observed dynamics of charge density wave formation.
