Abstract

New excitation are observed once a charge density wave (CDW) is genp erated in a system following a Peierls transition. In the commensurate case, the following features can be observed:

  1. a)

    Phonon branches folding with possibly new Raman and infrared active phonons 1.

  2. b)

    Raman active amplitude modes of the CDW that behave like soft modes below the point of commensurate second order phase transition.

  3. c)

    Infrared active phase modes of the CDW whose frequency is different from zero for q = o. However, this frequency equals zero in the incommensurate phase unless trere is pinning of the CDW 2.
