Abstract

Measurements of the charge-density-wave (CDW) amplitude modulation in 1T- ${TaS}_{2}$ at room temperature has been made using a scanning tunneling microscope operating in the constant-current mode. The amplitude profiles are in good agreement with the profile predicted by the CDW domain model of Nakanishi and Shiba. Interference effects between the atomic and CDW lattices have been analyzed and do not modify these profiles significantly.
