Strong Effects of Weak Localization in Charge Density Wave/Normal Metal Hybrids

Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics 2009-10-31 v1

Abstract

Collective transport through a multichannel disordered conductor in contact with charge-density-wave electrodes is theoretically investigated. The statistical distribution function of the threshold potential for charge-density wave sliding is calculated by random matrix theory. In the diffusive regime weak localization has a strong effect on the sliding motion.
