Comment on 'Observation of Shapiro Steps in the Charge Density Wave State Induced by Strain on a Piezoelectric Substrate'

In their Letter Fujiwara et al. (10.48550/arXiv.2511.09888. 2025) report a high-quality experiment demonstrating the synchronization of the CDW sliding in NbSe3 whiskers (nanowires) with surface acoustic waves (SAWs). The SAWs are induced in the conventional LiNbO3 piezoelectric substrates through application of rf voltage to an interdigital transducer (IDT). When a SAW mode is excited, Shapiro steps (ShSs) appear on the I-V curves, while no ShSs are observed when the frequency is shifted from the resonance. This gives clear evidence of synchronization of the CDW with the acoustic modes.

Application of the Entropy Production Principle to the Analysis of the Morphological Stability of a Growing Cylindrical Crystal

Stability of cylindrical and spherical crystals growing from a supersaturated solution (in Mullins-Sekerka's approximation) is considered using the maximum entropy production principle. The concept of the binodal of the nonequilibrium (morphological) phase transition is introduced for interpretation of the obtained results. The limits of the metastable regions are determined. The morphological phase diagrams of stable-unstable growth in the plane (surface energy, supersaturation) are given.
