The critical behavior of charge-density waves (CDWs) in the pinned phase is studied for applied fields increasing toward the threshold field, using recently developed renormalization group techniques and simulations of automaton models.…
We present a toy charge density wave (CDW) model in 1d exhibiting a depinning transition with threshold force and configurations that are explicit. Due to the periodic boundary conditions imposed, the threshold configuration has a set of…
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…
The intensity distribution of electromagnetic polar waves in a chain of near-resonant weakly-coupled scatterers is investigated theoretically and supported by a numerical analysis. Critical scaling behavior is discovered for part of the…
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…
In this article we discuss an exactly solvable, one-dimensional, periodic toy charge density wave model introduced in [D.C. Kaspar, M. Mungan, EPL {\bf 103}, 46002 (2013)]. In particular, driving the system with a uniform force, we show…
High-resolution coherent x-ray diffraction experiment has been performed on the charge density wave (CDW) system K$_{0.3}$MoO$_3$. The $2k_F$ satellite reflection associated with the CDW has been measured with respect to external dc…
In contrast to metals with weak disorder, the resistivity of weakly-pinned charge density waves (CDWs) is not controlled by irrelevant processes relaxing momentum. Instead, the leading contribution is governed by incoherent, diffusive…
We have used electro-reflectance measurements to study charge-density-wave (CDW) polarization dynamics at voltages near the CDW depinning onset (Von) in the quasi-one-dimensional conductor K0.3MoO3 ("blue bronze"). For low voltages, where…
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…
We have studied numerically the dynamics of sliding charge-density waves (CDWs) in the presence of impurities in d=1,2. The model considered exhibits a first order dynamical transition at a critical driving force $F_c$ between ``rough''…
In this article, we review different studies based on advanced x-ray diffraction techniques - especially coherent x-ray diffraction - that allowed us to reveal the behaviour of such symmetry-breaking systems as Charge Density Wave (CDW) and…
Charge density waves (CDWs) involve coupled amplitude and phase degrees of freedom, but direct access to local amplitude correlations remains experimentally challenging. Here, we report cryogenic four-dimensional scanning transmission…
We calculate the X-ray diffraction spectrum produced by a pinned charge density wave (CDW). The signature of the presence of a CDW consists of two satellite peaks, asymmetric as a consequence of disorder. The shape and the intensity of…
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…
We theoretically investigate the scaling behavior of the localization length for $s$-polarized electromagnetic waves incident at a critical angle on stratified random media with short-range correlated disorder. By employing the invariant…
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…
Plasticity of two-dimensional discrete dislocation systems is studied. It is shown, that at some threshold stress level the response becomes stress-rate dependent. Below this stress level the stress-plastic strain relation exhibits…
$(TaSe_4)_2I$ is a well-studied quasi-one-dimensional compound long-known to have a charge-density wave (CDW) transition around 263 K. We argue that the critical fluctuations of the pinned CDW order parameter near the transition can be…
We have explored the shear plasticity of charge density waves (CDWs) in niobium triselenide samples with cross-sections having a single micro-fabricated thickness step. Shear stresses along the step result from thickness-dependent CDW…
