We study the competition between pinning of a charge density wave (CDW) by random distributed impurities and a periodic potential of the underlying crystal lattice. In d=3 dimensions, we find for commensurate phases of order p>p_c\approx…
The so-called stripe phase of the manganites is an important example of the complex behaviour of metal oxides, and has long been interpreted as the localisation of charge at atomic sites. Here, we demonstrate via resistance measurements on…

The collective charge density wave (CDW) conduction is modulated by a transverse single-particle current in a transistor-like device. Nonequilibrium conditions in this geometry lead to an exponential reduction of the depinning threshold,…

A Charge Density Wave (CDW) submitted to an electric field displays a strong shear deformation because of pinning at the lateral surfaces of the sample. This CDW transverse pinning was recently observed but has received little attention…
Incommensurate charge density waves (CDW) have the extraordinary ability to display non-Ohmic behavior when submitted to an external field. The mechanism leading to this non trivial dynamics is still not well understood, although recent…
The phase transition between charge- and spin-density-wave (CDW, SDW) phases is studied in the one-dimensional extended Hubbard model at half-filling. We discuss whether the transition can be described by the Gaussian and the spin-gap…
Recent works have suggested that transient suppression of a charge density wave (CDW) by an ultra-short excitation can lead to an inversion of the CDW phase. We experimentally investigate the dynamics of the CDW in K$_{0.3}$MoO$_{3}$ by…
The influence of an external magnetic field on a quasi one-dimensional system with a charge density wave (CDW) instability is treated within the random phase approximation which includes both CDW and spin density wave correlations. We show…
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 critical behavior of pinned charge density waves (CDW's) is studied as the threshold for sliding is approached. Using the Fukuyama-Lee-Rice Hamiltonian with relaxational dynamics, the polarization and linear response are calculated…
We examine the dynamics of driven classical Wigner solids interacting with quenched disorder from charged impurities. For strong disorder, the initial motion is plastic -- in the form of crossing winding channels. For increasing drive, the…
We phenomenologically describe the thermodynamics of charge and spin density waves in doped high-$T_{c}$ oxides. We have explicitly calculated stable non-homogeneous solutions in the incompressible spin driven stripe phase, where stripes…
The effect of strain on charge density wave (CDW) order in $\alpha$-U is investigated within the framework of relativistic density-functional theory. The energetical stability of $\alpha$-U with CDW distortion is enhanced by the tensile…
We consider the problem of sliding motion of a charge-density-wave subject to static disorder within an elastic medium model. Starting with a field-theoretical formulation, which allows exact disorder averaging, we propose a self-consistent…

We show that a normal (single particle) current density $J_x$ {\em transverse} to the ordering wavevector $2k_F{\bf\hat{z}}$ of a charge density wave (CDW) has dramatic effects both above and {\em below} the CDW depinning transition. It…
Charge density wave (CDW) is a widely concerned emergent phenomenon in condensed matter physics. To establish a systematic understanding of CDW, we develop a diagrammatic self-consistent-field approach for cubic Holstein model employing…
