NbS: A unique quasi one-dimensional conductor with three charge density wave transitions
Through transport, compositional and structural studies, we review the
features of the charge-density wave (CDW) conductor of NbS (phase II). We
highlight three central results: 1) In addition to the previously reported CDW
transitions at = 360\,K and = 150\,K, another CDW transition
occurs at a much higher temperature = 620-650\,K; evidence for the
non-linear conductivity of this CDW is presented. 2) We show that CDW
associated with the - transition arises from S vacancies acting as
donors. Such a CDW transition has not been observed before. 3) We show
exceptional coherence of the -CDW at room-temperature. Additionally, we
report on the effects of uniaxial strain on the CDW transition temperatures and
transport.Comment: 16 pages, 18 figure
Nb S3: A unique quasi-one-dimensional conductor with three charge density wave transitions
© 2017 American Physical Society.We review the features of the charge density wave (CDW) conductor NbS3 (phase II) and include several additional results from transport, compositional, and structural studies. Particularly, we highlight three central results: (1) In addition to the previously reported CDW transitions at TP1=360K and TP2=150K, a third CDW transition occurs at a much higher temperature TP0≈620-650K; evidence for the nonlinear conductivity of this CDW is presented. (2) We show that the CDW associated with the TP2 transition arises from S vacancies acting as donors. Such a CDW transition has not been observed before. (3) We demonstrate the exceptional coherence of the TP1 CDW at room temperature. The effects of uniaxial strain on the CDW transition temperature and transport are reported
