We present an x-ray diffraction study of the Vanadium-doped blue bronze K0.3(Mo0.972V0.028)O3. At low temperature, we have observed both an intensity asymmetry of the +-2kF satellite reflections relative to the pure compound, and a profile…

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…

Friedel oscillations (FO) of electron density caused by a delta-like neutral impurity in two-dimensional (2D) systems in a magnetic field are calculated. Three 2D cases are considered: free electron gas, monolayer graphene and group-VI…

When unscreened charged impurities are introduced in charge density wave system the long wavelength component of the disorder is long ranged and dominates static correlation functions. We calculate the x-ray intensity and find that it is…

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 report on the investigation of vibrational and electronic properties of the Pb doped dichalcogenide PbxTaSe2 using Raman scattering experiments. We observe a marked variation of the main vibrational modes with Pb concentration x. The…

We present an X-ray diffraction study of the quasi-2D conductors a-(BEDTTTF)2MHg(SCN), with M=K and Rb. They exhibit a phase transition of the density wave type at TDW=8-10K and 12-13K respectively, evidenced by magnetoresistivity, specific…

The optical conductivity spectra of quasi-one dimensional compounds K$_{0.3}$Mo$_{1-x}$W$_x$O$_3$ (x=0, 0.03 and 0.15) have been studied over broad frequencies. While the dc resistivity measurements indicate no sign of CDW transition in…

We show that Friedel oscillations (FO) in grapehene are strongly affected by the chirality of electrons in this material. In particular, the FO of the charge density around an impurity show a faster, $1/r^3$, decay than in conventional 2D…

Under the Franck-Condon approximation, we systematically validated the performance of density functional theory (DFT) and the effects of anharmonicity in simulating C/N/O K-edge vibrationally-resolved X-ray spectra of common diatomic…

Experimental signatures of charge density waves (CDW) in high-temperature superconductors have evoked much recent interest, yet an alternative interpretation has been theoretically raised based on electronic standing waves resulting from…

Charge density waves (CDWs) are ubiquitous in under-doped cuprate superconductors. As a modulation of the valence electron density, CDWs in hole-doped cuprates possess both Cu-3d and O-2p orbital character owing to the strong hybridization…

Chiral multiferroic langasites have attracted attention due to their doubly-chiral magnetic ground state within an enantiomorphic crystal. We report on a detailed resonant soft X-ray diffraction study of the multiferroic…

We study theoretically the effects of strong pinning centers on a charge density wave in the limit that the charge density wave coherence length is shorter than the average inter-impurity distance. An analysis based on a Ginzburg-Landau…

We analyze the spin- and charge-density oscillations near impurities in spin chains and quantum wires. These so-called Friedel oscillations give detailed information about the impurity and also about the interactions in the system. The…

In previous reports a structural transition from a cubic phase of Yb$_3$Rh$_4$Sn$_{13}$ - type to the superlattice variant has been reported at $\sim160$ K for a series of skutterudite-related Ce$_3$M$_4$Sn$_{13}$ compounds, where M=Co, Ru…

We explore the effects of disordered charged defects on the electronic excitations observed in the photoemission spectra of doped transition metal oxides in the Mott insulating regime by the example of the $R_{1-x}$Ca$_x$VO$_3$ perovskites,…

The influence of intrinsic defects of 1T-TaS2 on charge density waves (CDW) is studied using scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy (STM, STS), angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (ARPES), and density functional theory (DFT).…

Radiation defects in barium fluoride single crystals doped with cadmium have been investigated by luminescence and absorption spectroscopy, as well as by electron spin resonance spectroscopy. Three types of Cd$^+$ centers differing by the…

The contribution of $O^{2-}$ ions to antiferromagnetism in $La_{2-x}Ae_xCuO_4$ ($Ae = Sr, Ba)$ is highly sensitive to doped holes. In contrast, the contribution of $Cu^{2+}$ ions to antiferromagnetism in $Nd_{2-x}Ce_xCuO_{4+y}$ is much less…
