The anomalies in resistivity at about TA = 270 K and TB = 330 K indicate that two phase transitions occur. The line shape of alp NMR spectra in different temperature ranges is attributed to the charge density distribution. The Knight shift and spin-lattice relaxation rate 1/T1T are measured from 1OK to 30OK. At about TA = 270K, they both decrease abruptly with the temperature reduction, which reveals the gap-opening behavior. Well below TA, they act like the case of normal metal. Charge-density-wave phase transition is proposed to interpret the transition occurring at about TA.展开更多

Transport and magnetic properties in the directions parallel and perpendicular to the a-c plane are investigated. We find that the resistivity anisotropy P⊥/P∥ lies in the range 486-615 for different compounds at 2K, indicating the highly two-dimensional character. In both the orientations, the charge-density-wave transitions start near Tcow = 284(3)K, 316(3)K, 359(3)K for NdSeTe2, PrSeTe2, CeSeTe2, respectively, with a considerable increase in dc resistivity. While for LaSeTe2, no obvious resistivity anomaly is observed up to 380K. The value of TCDW increases monotonically with the increasing lattice parameters. Below TCDW, slight anomalies can be observed in NdSeTe2, PrSeTe2 and CeSeTe2 with onset temperature at 193(3)K, 161(3)K, 108(3)K, respectively, decreasing as lattice parameters increase. Magnetic susceptibility measurements show that the valence state of rare earth ions are trivalenee in these compounds. Antiferromagnetie-type magnetic order is formed in CeSeTe2 at 2.1 K, while no magnetic transition is observed in PrSeTe2 and NdSeTe2 down to 1.8 K.展开更多

These two structural modulations can be well explained in terms of condensations of two-coupled phonon modes with wave vectors of q1=0.62a* on the a*-b* plane and q2 = 0.23a* on the a*-c* plane. The atomic displacements occur along the b-axis direction for q1 and along the c-axis direction for q2, respectively. Moreover, the correlation between ql and q2 can be generally written as q1 = (q2 + a*)/2 in the CDW state, suggesting the presence of essential coupling between q1 and q2. A small fraction of Ir doping on the Pt site in Sr(Pt1-xIrx)2As2 (x ≤ 0.06) could moderately change these CDW modulations and also affect their superconductivities.展开更多

The observed superconducting dome suggests the existence of a CDW quantum critical point(QCP) in ZrTe3-xSex near x ≈ 0.04. To elucidate the superconducting state near the CDW QCP, we measure the thermal conductivity of two ZrTe(3-x)Sex single crystals(x = 0.044 and 0.051) down to 80 m K. For both samples, the residual linear term κ0/T at zero field is negligible, which is a clear evidence for nodeless superconducting gap. Furthermore, the field dependence of κ0/T manifests a multigap behavior. These results demonstrate multiple nodeless superconducting gaps in ZrTe(3-x)Sex,which indicates conventional superconductivity despite of the existence of a CDW QCP.展开更多

METHODS: Immunohistochemical method was used to examine the expression of CDw75 in 72 cases of the gastric carcinoma and adjacent normal gastric mucosa, and the percentage of the cells positively stained with CDw75 was calculated using a computer-aided microscopic image analysis system. RESULTS: CDw75 was not expressed in normal gastric mucosa but detected in 37 of the 72 neoplastic gastric lesions. The expression of CDw75 was associated with the tumor progression as indicated by its close correlation with the depth of the tumor infiltration (X^2=18.415, P<0.01), TNM stage (X^2=10.419, P<0.05) and lymph node metastasis (X^2=6.675, P<0.01). The overall survival rate of the patients with positive CDw75 expression (32.4%) was significantly lower than that of the patients without CDw75 expression (71.4%) (P<0.01). There was no significant correlation between the expression of CDw75 and the sex and age and histological type of patients (P>0.05). CONCLUSION: These findings suggest that the expression of CDw75 is a significant histopathological marker for more advanced stage of gastric carcinoma and indicates a poor prognosis for the patients.展开更多

To close the building cycle and the building materials cycle by recycling CDW in high technical applications, the technical quality of stony materials must be improved. For this purpose, concrete rubbles and brick rubbles, the two major stony constituents of CDW, should be separated from each other. Based on the differences in density and content of Fe-2O-3 between the two materials, a wet method of jigging and a dry method of magnetic separation are effective,tested.展开更多

The CDW insulating state is suppressed by a pressure of 1 GPa, which is considered to be a quantum critical point. Neither at 0 - 0.5 nor 2 GPa but only around this critical point in pressure, field-induced phases appear from 0.2 T through 10 T, where Rxy is almost constant and Rxx is very low. These phenomena are achieved when the magnetic field is applied along the least conducting axis. The behaviors are consistent with a kind of Quantum Hall Effect (QHE). The field-induce phase accompanied by the QHE might be the field-induced CDW (FICDW) similar to that of FISDW, observed in (TMTSF)2X salts. This paper presents the latest result of the Hall effects reviewing the history of the authors’ work on this material from preliminary to the latest ones.展开更多

Our problem applies wave-functionals to a driven sine-Gordon system. We apply the tunneling Hamiltonian to charge density wave (CDW) transport problems where we consider tunneling among states that are wave-functionals of a scalar quantum field, i.e. derived I-E curves that match Zenier curves used to fit data experimentally with wave-functionals congruent with the false vacuum hypothesis. The open question is whether the coefficients picked in both wave-functionals and the magnitude of the coefficients of the driven sine-Gordon physical system are picked by topological charge arguments that appear to assign values consistent with the false vacuum hypothesis. Crucial results by Fred Cooper et al. allow a mature quantum foam interpretation of false vacuum nucleation for further refinement of our wave-functional results. In doing so, we give credence to topological arguments as a first order phase transition in CDW I-E curves.展开更多

文摘It was found that selenium doping can suppress the charge-density-wave(CDW) order and induce bulk superconductivity in ZrTe3. The observed superconducting dome suggests the existence of a CDW quantum critical point(QCP) in ZrTe3-xSex near x ≈ 0.04. To elucidate the superconducting state near the CDW QCP, we measure the thermal conductivity of two ZrTe(3-x)Sex single crystals(x = 0.044 and 0.051) down to 80 m K. For both samples, the residual linear term κ0/T at zero field is negligible, which is a clear evidence for nodeless superconducting gap. Furthermore, the field dependence of κ0/T manifests a multigap behavior. These results demonstrate multiple nodeless superconducting gaps in ZrTe(3-x)Sex,which indicates conventional superconductivity despite of the existence of a CDW QCP.
