Controlling charge density waves (CDWs) in quantum materials enables the fine-tuning of their electronic properties, paving the way for future electronic and optoelectronic devices. The layered compound 1T-TaS2 exhibits various temperature-dependent CDW phases that we aim to modify through doping. We introduced the dopant molybdenum during crystal growth via the chemical vapor transport method. Using 11-eV laser-based angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (ARPES), we comparatively measured the electronic band structures of pristine and Mo-doped 1T-TaS2 crystals. Complementary low-energy electron diffraction (LEED) measurements revealed the structural rearrangements during the CDW transitions and partial CDW suppression at specific doping levels. Our results suggest that modest Mo doping allows for subtle adjustments to the CDW landscape of 1T-TaS2, yielding different transition temperatures while preserving the underlying electronic-structural order.
