摘　　要：Correlated states have emerged in low-dimensional systems owing to enhanced Coulomb interactions.Elucidating these states requires atomic-scale characterization and delicate control capabilities.Herein,spectroscopic imaging-scanning tunneling microscopy was employed to investigate the correlated states residing in 1D electrons of the monolayer and bilayer MoSe2 mirror twin boundary(MTB).The Coulomb energies,determined by the wire length,drive the MTB into two types of ground states with distinct respective out-of-phase and in-phase charge orders.The two ground states can be reversibly converted through a metastable zero-energy state with in situ voltage pulses,which tune the electron filling of the MTB via a polaronic process,substantiated by first-principles calculations.Our Hubbard model calculation with an exact diagonalization method reveals the ground states as correlated insulators from an on-site U-originated Coulomb interaction,dubbed the Hubbard-type Coulomb blockade effect.Our study lays a foundation for understanding and tailoring correlated physics in complex systems.
