The Peierls transition in low‐dimensional electronic crystals

The Peierls transition in low‐dimensional electronic crystals An overview is presented of low‐dimensional electronic crystals that undergo a phase transition towards a low‐temperature charge‐density‐wave (CDW) state. The emphasis is on inorganic compounds that develop an one‐dimensional (1D) CDW. Low‐dimensional features of crystal structures are discussed in relation to 1D electronic properties. X‐ray diffraction is discussed as a tool to obtain quantitative information about the normal state and its structural fluctuations, and about the CDW, both in equilibrium and in its non‐linear conducting state. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Acta Crystallographica Section A Foundations of Crystallography Wiley

Abstract

An overview is presented of low‐dimensional electronic crystals that undergo a phase transition towards a low‐temperature charge‐density‐wave (CDW) state. The emphasis is on inorganic compounds that develop an one‐dimensional (1D) CDW. Low‐dimensional features of crystal structures are discussed in relation to 1D electronic properties. X‐ray diffraction is discussed as a tool to obtain quantitative information about the normal state and its structural fluctuations, and about the CDW, both in equilibrium and in its non‐linear conducting state.
