Fermi surface nesting and the origin of charge density waves in metals

Hidden fermi surface nesting and charge density wave instability in low-dimensional metals.

The concept of hidden Fermi surface nesting was introduced to explain the general observation that certain low-dimensional metals with several partially filled bands exhibit charge density wave (CDW) instabilities, although their individual Fermi surfaces do not reveal the observed nesting vectors. This concept was explored by considering the Fermi surfaces of the purple bronze AMo(6)O(17) (A =...

Fermi surface nesting and charge-density wave formation in rare-earth tritellurides

The Fermi surface of rare-earth tritellurides sRTe3d is investigated in terms of the nesting-driven chargedensity wave formation using positron annihilation and first-principles linear muffin-tin orbital calculations. Fermi surface nesting is revealed as a strong candidate for driving charge-density wave formation in these compounds. The nesting vector obtained from positron annihilation experi...

Origin of the incommensurate modulation in Te-III and fermi-surface nesting in a simple metal.

Inelastic x-ray scattering experiments have been performed on incommensurately modulated Te-III at high pressure and reveal a pronounced phonon anomaly. The anomaly is reproduced in first-principles lattice dynamics calculations of unmodulated, body-centered monoclinic (bcm) Te, which is shown to be dynamically unstable. The calculated Fermi surface of bcm Te exhibits surprisingly effective nes...

the study of bright and surface discrete cavity solitons dynamics in saturable nonlinear media

امروزه سالیتون ها بعنوان امواج جایگزیده ای که تحت شرایط خاص بدون تغییر شکل در محیط منتشر می-شوند، زمینه مطالعات گسترده ای در حوزه اپتیک غیرخطی هستند. در این راستا توجه به پدیده پراش گسسته، که بعنوان عامل پهن شدگی باریکه نوری در آرایه ای از موجبرهای جفت شده، ظاهر می گردد، ضروری است، زیرا سالیتون های گسسته از خنثی شدن پراش گسسته در این سیستم ها بوسیله عوامل غیرخطی بوجود می آیند. گسستگی سیستم عامل...
