M. Pinteric et al., Non-ohmic electrical transport in the charge-density wave state of (2,5(OCH3)(2)DCNQI)(2)Li, SYNTH METAL, 103(1-3), 1999, pp. 2185-2186
Electric-field-dependent conductivity measurements are reported in the low-
temperature charge: density wave state of the organic conductor (2,5(OCH3)(
2)DCNQl)(2)Li. We associate non-linear conductivity to the sliding of 2k(F)
. CDW pinned by commensurability to the background lattice. The sliding mec
hanism ceases to be valid below 25K concomitantly with the onset of the var
iable range hopping in single particle conduction.
