Introduction to Charge Density Wave Transport

Basic Phenomena and Models

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NSSB,volume 354))

Abstract

Collective transport phenomena are among the most fascinating properties in solid state physics. The best known example is superconductivity where the energy gap in the excitations at the Fermi level, as found by BCS [1] does not prevent conductivity. This is so because the interaction involved does not require a specific reference frame and because Cooper pairs can be built either in states “k and-k” of “k+κ or -k+ κ”. The latter state leads to a uniform velocity such as:

$$ m{{v}_{s}} = \hbar \kappa $$
