Spontaneous symmetry breaking and emergent electronic order have been widely discussed in condensed matter physics, providing a general framework for understanding complex phase transitions in quantum materials. Layered transition-metal dichalcogenides host a particularly rich variety of charge density wave states, which often compete or coexist with superconductivity. Here, using first-principles calculations, we propose that CDW instabilities are broadly realized in 1T Janus TMD monolayers. The condensation of CDW modes removes the remaining mirror symmetry of polar Janus lattice, giving rise to a threefold polar chiral phase. Momentum-resolved electron-phonon coupling and bare Lindhard susceptibility reveal distinct microscopic characteristics across the different CDW families. These results establish Janus monolayer as a versatile playground for exploring the interplay among chirality, electronic orders, and quantum phase transitions.
