Electric field depinning of charge density waves
Abstract
The pinning of charge-density waves by impurities is considered in systems that exhibit at least short-range order in three dimensions. Impurities are classified into strong and weak with quite different pinning properties. The pinning of spin-density waves is weak and the phase values at impurity sites are almost random, in agreement with a recent experiment. The electric field required to depin the charge-density wave is estimated. The coupling between a drifting charge-density wave and carriers either from a remnant Fermi surface or thermal excitation is considered. Attention is focused on umklapp scattering of carriers by phasons as a coupling mechanism at finite temperature. The conductivity in the high-electric-field depinned limit can be large. Dislocations in the charge-density-wave lattice are examined with particular emphasis on the piecewise motion of the charge-density wave through the motion of dislocations. We also discuss the generation of dislocations by the analog of Frank-Read sources. The unusual nonlinear conductivity observed in Nb${\mathrm{Se}}_{3}$ is interpreted in terms of depinning of charge-density waves. The possibility of observing similar effects in other systems is briefly examined.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
