Researchers from Chalmers University of Technology and Politecnico di Milano have identified a crucial new aspect of charge density modulations in cuprate high critical temperature superconductors.

Researchers have detected the existence of a charge density wave of electrons that acquires mass as it interacts with the background lattice ions of the material over long distances. Researchers ...

A novel material has been discovered that is characterised by the coupling of a charge density wave with the topology of the electronic structure. Topological materials are characterised by unique ...

New research in Chinese Physics Letters investigates the phenomena of superconductivity and charge density waves in a monolayer material grown on a graphene substrate. Study: Charge Density Wave and ...

A crystal is a solid material whose constituents atoms are arranged in a periodic fashion. A charge density wave (CDW) is a quantum mechanical phenomenon observed in some crystals with metallic ...

Fan Fengtao from the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics (DICP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) and their collaborators revealed the linear law between surface charge density and ...

(Courtesy: W Gao, UC Irvine) Scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) can be used to detect electric charge density as well as image atoms. This new advance comes from researchers at the ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) The charge-density-wave (CDW) phase is a macroscopic quantum state consisting of a periodic modulation of the electronic charge density accompanied by a periodic distortion of the ...
