Strong Effects of Weak Localization in Charge Density Wave/Normal Metal Hybrids

Collective transport through a multichannel disordered conductor in contact with charge-density-wave electrodes is theoretically investigated. The statistical distribution function of the threshold potential for charge-density wave sliding is calculated by random matrix theory. In the diffusive regime weak localization has a strong effect on the sliding motion.

Charge Density Wave Ratchet

We propose to operate a locally-gated charge density wave as an electron pump. Applying an oscillating gate potential with frequency $f$ causes equally spaced plateaux in the sliding charge density wave current separated by $ΔI=2eNf,$ where $N$ is the number of parallel chains. The effects of thermal noise are investigated.
