The charge-density-wave (CDW) mechanism of the 3D quantum Hall effect has been observed recently in ZrTe$_5$ [Tang et al., Nature 569, 537 (2019)]. Different from previous cases, the CDW forms on a one-dimensional (1D) band of Landau…

Charge-density waves (CDWs) are correlated states of matter, where the electronic density is modulated periodically as a consequence of electronic and phononic interactions. Often, CDW phases coexist with other correlated states, such as…
The coexistent state of the spin density wave (SDW) and the charge density wave (CDW) in the one-dimensional systems is studied by the mean field approximation at T=0 in various electron-filling cases. We find that the coexistent state of…
We construct a gravity dual for charge density waves (CDW) in which the translational symmetry along one spatial direction is spontaneously broken. Our linear perturbation calculation on the gravity side produces the frequency dependence of…
The charge density wave (CDW) is a condensate that often forms in layered materials. It is known to carry electric current \emph{en masse}, but the transport mechanism remains poorly understood at the microscopic level. Its quantum nature…
