Negative plasmon dispersion in 2H-NbS2 beyond the charge-density-wave interpretation

We examine the experimental and theoretical electron-energy loss spectra in 2 H - ${\mathrm{Cu}}_{0.2}$ NbS _2 and find that the 1 eV plasmon in this material does not exhibit the regular positive quadratic plasmon dispersion that would be expected for a normal broad-parabolic-band system. Instead w...
