Abstract:
We report a (77)Se and (63)Cu nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) investigation on the charge-density-wave (CDW) superconductor Cu(x)TiSe(2) (x = 0.05 and 0.07). At high magnetic fields where superconductivity is suppressed, the temperature dependence of (77)Se and (63)Cu spin-lattice relaxation rates 1/T(1) follow a linear relation. The slope of (77)Se 1/T(1) versus T increases with the Cu doping. This can be described by a modified Korringa relation which suggests the significance of electronic correlations and the Se 4p- and Ti 3d-band contribution to the density of states at the Fermi level in the studied compounds.
