Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The latest addition to this series covers a field which is commonly referred to as charge density wave dynamics. The most thoroughly investigated materials are inorganic linear chain compounds with highly anisotropic electronic properties. The volume opens with an examination of their structural properties and the essential features which allow charge density waves to develop. The behaviour of the charge density waves, where interesting phenomena are observed, is treated both from a theoretical and an experimental standpoint. The role of impurities in statics and dynamics is considered and an examination of the possible role of solitons in incommensurate charge density wave systems is given. A number of ways to describe charge density waves theoretically, using computer simulations as well as microscopical models, are presented by a truely international board of authors.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Incommensurate structural phase transformations involve the appearance of modulated atomic displacements with spatial periodicity unrelated to the fundamental periodicity of the basic lattice. In the case of some quasi one- or two-dimensional metals such transformations are the result of Fermi-surface instabilities that also produce electronic charge density waves (CDW's) and soft phonon modes due to metallic electron screening singularities. Incommensurate soft mode instabilities have been found in insulators as well. Recent neutron scattering studies of both the statics and dynamics of incommensurate structural instabilities will be reviewed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At low temperatures, the electronic structure of metals becomes unstable, and instabilities often develop correlated electronic states, decreasing the number of free carriers. One of these correlated states is a charge density wave state. It usually arises under the interaction of free carriers with phonons, and it is manifested as a superstructure over the original crystal lattice. The charge density wave state presents distinguishable experimental fingerprints in many physical properties of the crystal, spontaneously breaking its translational symmetry. The physics of the charge density wave is well established in the case of a one-dimensional metal; however, there are lot of open issues, when describing the systems of higher dimensions. The charge density wave state could potentially be utilized in low-energy electronic devices. Transition metal dichalcogenides are quasi two-dimensional materials, that exhibit a correlated electronic behavior, such as the superconductivity and the charge density wave. Due to their simple crystalline structures, nearly perfect crystals can be grown, and the electronic correlations can be studied in the absence of any disorder. An example of this class of materials is 2H-NbSe2, that undergoes both the charge density wave (T_CDW=33.5 K) and superconducting (T_SC=7.2 K) transitions. The first part of this work is focused on the single crystal growth, electronic transport characterization, and results of ultrafast transient reflectivity measurements of 2H-NbSe2 single crystals. Coherent lattice dynamics and characteristic relaxation times of photoexcited charge carriers have been extracted from the broadband transient optical spectroscopy. A wide temporal profile gives opportunity to track multiple ultrafast phenomena within the same experiment from 50 fs to few nanoseconds. The physical mechanisms leading to the charge density wave condensation are being discussed here. The second part of this work is focused on a studying of the temperature hysteresis in electrical transport properties in freshly grown undoped and doped 1T-TiSe2 single crystals. This transition metal dichalcogenide undergoes a chiral charge density wave at low temperatures (T_CDW=202 K). An irreversible behavior of electrical properties upon the thermocycling indicates an existence of metastable states in the charge density wave phase, and it is commonly attributed to additional phase transitions. The absence of strong experimental evidence of these transitions is collaborated with an opened dispute on the nature of charge density wave state in this material. Physical origins of this phenomenon, including a complex charge density wave domain structure of 1T-TiSe2, are being discussed in the second part of the work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, charge-density wave (CDW) systems have been studied extensively, as they provide a diverse testing field for basic concepts in electron-phonon coupling, electron correlation, and structural phase transitions. In particular, time-resolved techniques have participated in that process, disentangling the dynamics of the various degrees of freedoms in such complex materials. As a recently developed pump-probe technique, ultrafast low-energy electron diffraction provides complementary insight into the CDW-coupled structural dynamics at the surface.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kinetics of Aggregation and Gelation presents the proceedings of the International Topical Conference on Kinetics of Aggregation and Gelation held on April 2-4, 1984 in Athens, Georgia. The purpose of the conference was to bring together international experts from a wide variety of backgrounds who are studying phenomena inherently similar to the formation of large clusters by the union of many separate, small elements, to present and exchange ideas on new theories and results of experimental and computer simulations. This book is divided into 57 chapters, each of which represents an oral presentation that is part of a unified whole. The book begins with a presentation on fractal concepts in aggregation and gelation, followed by presentations on topics such as aggregative fractals called ""squigs""; multi-particle fractal aggregation; theory of fractal growth processes; self-similar structures; and interface dynamics. Other chapters cover addition polymerization and related models; the kinetic gelation model; a new model of linear polymers; red cell aggregation kinetics; the Potts Model; aggregation of colloidal silica; the ballistic model of aggregation; stochastic dynamics simulation of particle aggregation; particle-cluster aggregation; kinetic clustering of clusters; computer simulations of domain growth; and perspectives in the kinetics of aggregation and gelation. This book will be of interest to practitioners in the fields of chemistry, theoretical physics, and materials engineering.

This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charge density wave (CDW) order appears throughout the underdoped high-temperature cuprate superconductors, but the underlying symmetry breaking and the origin of the CDW remain unclear. We use X-ray diffraction to determine the microscopic structure of the CDWs in an archetypical cuprate YBa2Cu3O6.54 at its superconducting transition temperature ~60 K. We find that the CDWs in this material break the mirror symmetry of the CuO2 bilayers. The ionic displacements in the CDWs have two components, which are perpendicular and parallel to the CuO2 planes, and are out of phase with each other. The planar oxygen atoms have the largest displacements, perpendicular to the CuO2 planes. Our results allow many electronic properties of the underdoped cuprates to be understood. For example, the CDWs will lead to local variations in the electronic structure, giving an explicit explanation of density-wave states with broken symmetry observed in scanning tunnelling microscopy and soft X-ray measurements.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charge density wave (CDW) is a periodic charge modulation in a metal, induced by electron-phonon or electron-electron interaction, which breaks the translational symmetry of the underlying electron gas. The charge density wave order is ubiquitous among condensed matter systems, and its equilibrium properties have been well characterized by static probes, such as X-ray scattering. However, little is known about their nonequilibrium properties following photoexcitation. In this thesis, we use time resolved optical measurements to characterize the nonequilibrium dynamics of charge density wave systems. In the time resolved optical experiments in this work, an ultrashort (

Download or read book Equilibrium and Non equilibrium Dynamics of Charge density Waves in Chromium written by and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Below I present two related studies on the dynamics of spin-/charge-density-waves (SDW/CDW) in chromium. In the first study we measured equilibrium fluctuations of antiferromagnetic SDW/CDW domains in a bulk sample by correlating speckle patterns obtained with partially coherent synchrotron x-rays. The autocorrelation functions follow a double compressing exponential decay similar to that observed in other `jammed' condensed matter systems. This hyper-diffusive behavior indicates the existence of collective relaxation modes which we interpret to arise from the coherent rotation of weakly coupled blocks of spins. Time scales for this collective process range from tens of seconds at 150 Kelvin to thousands of seconds at low temperatures. Even near absolute zero, we observed fluctuations of the magnetic structure which can most directly be interpreted as arising from quantum mechanical zero-point motion. Because microscopic domains of energetically similar spin/charge ordered states are quantum mechanically linked, there exists a dynamic competition between alternate ground states that provides insight into the free energy landscape of domain wall configurations. We obtain estimates of the effective soliton mass of a domain wall and the Arrhenius activation energy.
