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…
Here we report on the dynamics of the structural order parameter in a chromium film using synchrotron radiation in response to photo-induced ultra-fast excitations. Following transient optical excitations the effective lattice temperature…
Charge transport in materials has an impact on a wide range of devices based on semiconductor, battery or superconductor technology. Charge transport in sliding Charge Density Waves (CDW) differs from all others in that the atomic lattice…
Charge density wave (CDW) order is an emergent quantum phase that is characterized by a periodic lattice distortion and charge density modulation, often present near superconducting transitions. Here we uncover a novel inverted CDW state by…
We study the coupled charge-lattice dynamics in the commensurate charge density wave (CDW) phase of the layered compound 1T-TaS$_{2}$ driven by an ultrashort laser pulse. For describing its electronic structure, we employ a tight-binding…
We report an x-ray diffraction study on the charge-density-wave (CDW) LaTe$_3$ and CeTe$_3$ compounds as a function of pressure. We extract the lattice constants and the CDW modulation wave-vector, and provide direct evidence for a…
A charge-density-wave (CDW) is characterized by a dynamical order parameter consisting of a time-dependent amplitude and phase, which manifest as optically-active collective modes of the CDW phase. Studying the behaviour of such collective…
An incommensurate charge density wave (CDW) is a periodic modulation of charge that breaks translational symmetry incongruently with the underlying lattice. Its low-energy excitations, the phason, are collective, gapless phase fluctuations.…
Spatial uctuations of spin density wave (SDW) and charge density wave (CDW) in chromium have been compared by combining coherent and simultaneous X-ray diffraction experiments. Despite their close relationship, spatial fluctuations of the…
We report on the evolution of the charge density wave (CDW) and spin density wave (SDW) order of a chromium film following photoexcitation with an ultrafast optical laser pulse. The CDW is measured by ultrafast time-resolved x-ray…
We report on sliding Charge Density Wave (CDW) in the quasi two-dimensional TbTe$_3$ system probed by coherent x-ray diffraction combined with {\it in-situ} transport measurements. We show that the non-Ohmic conductivity in TbTe$_3$ is made…
Charge density waves (CDWs) underpin the electronic properties of many complex materials. Near-equilibrium CDW order is linearly coupled to a periodic, atomic-structural distortion, and the dynamics is understood in terms of amplitude and…
Solitons are peculiar excitations that appear in a wide range of nonlinear systems such as in fluids or optics. We show here that the collective transport of charges observed in charge density wave (CDW) systems can be explained by using a…
Symmetry breaking and the emergence of order is one of the most fascinating phenomena in condensed matter physics. It leads to a plethora of intriguing ground states found in antiferromagnets, Mott insulators, superconductors, and…
The complex Fermi surfaces of transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) challenge the standard Peierls-instability-driven charge-density-wave (CDW) formation. Recently, evidence has been accumulating of a prominent role of ionic thermal…
Intertwining charge density wave (CDW) with spin and pairing order parameters is a major focus of contemporary condensed matter physics. Lattice distortions and local symmetry breaking resulted from CDWs are crucial for the emergence of…
Femtosecond time-resolved X-ray diffraction is used to study a photo-induced phase transition between two charge density wave (CDW) states in 1T-TaS$_2$, namely the nearly commensurate (NC) and the incommensurate (I) CDW states. Structural…
A number of intriguing phenomena, including exciton condensation, orbital ordering, and emergence of chirality, have been proposed to accompany charge-density-wave (CDW) formation in the layered transition metal dichalcogenide…
Charge density wave (CDW) implies a periodic modulation of the charge density. Typically observed in metallic systems, CDWs arise from Fermi surface instabilities, resulting in the total or partial gapping of the Fermi surface. Here, we…
When electrons in a solid are excited with light, they can alter the free energy landscape and access phases of matter that are beyond reach in thermal equilibrium. This accessibility becomes of vast importance in the presence of phase…
