Popis: Experimental data on the monolayer niobium diselenide show that the single band crosses the Fermi energy. This is in striking contrast to the bulk systems in which at least three bands contribute to the Fermi surface of the material. Together with the fact that the charge density wave (CDW) transition temperature T c of a bulk system and of a single layer are the same one concludes that it should allow description of the two dimensional system by a single band in the tight-binding approximation. We analyse the development of CDW order of triangular symmetry in two-dimensional lattice of hexagonal symmetry. We assume the existence of four sublattices and calculate the resulting density of states and the formation of CDW gap for systems with varying carrier concentration. The mechanism of CDW instability, most probably related to the strong electron-phonon coupling in the material, is modeled by the local attractive interaction U of the same strength on all sites.
