Charge-density-wave phase slip in NbSe3

We have studied the phase-slip process by which charge-density-wave (CDW) current is converted to single-particle current at electrical contacts. Transport and X-ray scattering measurements indicate that an excess voltage Vps dropped between current contacts induces a large static deformation of the CDW phase. The measured Vpsand temperature-dependent phase-slip rates are consistent with a mode...

Charge-density-wave current conversion in submicron NbSe3 wires

We have studied the charge-density-wave (CDW) current conversion process in NbSe3 wire structures of mesoscopic dimensions. A significant reduction of the phase-slip voltage associated with this conversion is observed if the spacing between current contacts is smaller than a few &mgr;m. This reduction cannot be explained with existing models of CDW current conversion. We suggest that single pha...

Nanowires and nanoribbons of charge-density-wave conductor NbSe3.

We report synthesis of nanowires and nanoribbons of the charge-density-wave conductor NbSe(3) through direct reaction of Nb and Se powders. The transverse dimension of the obtained nanostructures, as identified with scanning/transmission electron microscopy, ranges from 20 to 700 nm. X-ray and selected area electron diffraction analyses indicate that these nanowires and nanoribbons are single c...

Optical investigation of the charge-density-wave phase transitions in NbSe3

We have measured the optical reflectivity R(v) of the quasi-one-dimensional conductor NbSe3 from the far infrared up to the ultraviolet between 10 and 300 K using light polarized along and normal to the chain axis. We find a depletion of the optical conductivity with decreasing temperature for both polarizations in the midto far-infrared region. This leads to a redistribution of spectral weight...

STM evidence of room-temperature charge instabilities in NbSe3.

NbSe3 is a quasi-low-dimensional compound with unique properties. Two incommensurate charge-density waves appear at low temperatures, which slide under the application of an electric field. The mechanism of sliding is not fully understood and it was speculated that precursor effects may be present above the onset temperatures. Scanning tunneling microscopy offers a unique tool to search for suc...
