Multiple charge density wave transitions in Gd$_2$Te$_5$ (2008)
Shin, K. Y., Ru, N., Condron, C. L., Wu, Y. Q., Kramer, M. J., Toney, M. F., ...
Diffraction measurements performed via transmission electron microscopy and high resolution X-ray scattering reveal two distinct charge density wave transitions in Gd$_2$Te$_5$ at $T_{c1}$ = 410(3)...
Pfuner, F., Degiorgi, L., Shin, K. Y., Fisher, I. R.
We investigate the rare-earth polychalcogenide $R_2$Te$_5$ ($R$=Nd, Sm and Gd) charge-density-wave (CDW) compounds by optical methods. From the absorption spectrum we extract the excitation energy of...
Charge density wave formation in $R_{2}$Te$_{5}$ ($R$=Nd, Sm and Gd) (2007)
Shin, K. Y., Laverock, J., Wu, Y. Q., Condron, C. L., Toney, M. F., Dugdale, S. B., ...
The rare earth ($R$) tellurides $R_2$Te$_5$ have a crystal structure intermediate between that of $R$Te$_2$ and $R$Te$_3$, consisting of alternating single and double Te planes sandwiched between...
Pressure dependence of the optical properties of the charge-density-wave compound LaTe$_2$ (2007)
Lavagnini, M., Sacchetti, A., Degiorgi, L., Arcangeletti, E., Baldassarre, L., Postorino, P., ...
We report the pressure dependence of the optical response of LaTe$_2$, which is deep in the charge-density-wave (CDW) ground state even at 300 K. The reflectivity spectrum is collected in the...
Optical properties of the Ce and La di-telluride charge density wave compounds (2007)
Lavagnini, M., Sacchetti, A., Degiorgi, L., Shin, K. Y., Fisher, I. R.
The La and Ce di-tellurides LaTe$_2$ and CeTe$_2$ are deep in the charge-density-wave (CDW) ground state even at 300 K. We have collected their electrodynamic response over a broad spectral range...
Ru, N., Condron, C. L., Margulis, G. Y., Shin, K. Y., Laverock, J., Dugdale, S. B., ...
The charge density wave transition is investigated in the bi-layer family of rare earth tritelluride RTe_3 compounds (R = Sm, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm) via high resolution x-ray diffraction and...
Fermi Surface reconstruction in the CDW state of CeTe3 observed by photoemission (2004)
Brouet, V., Yang, W. L., Zhou, X. J., Hussain, Z., Ru, N., Shin, K. Y., ...
CeTe3 is a layered compound where an incommensurate Charge Density Wave (CDW) opens a large gap (400 meV) in optimally nested regions of the Fermi Surface (FS), whereas other sections with poorer...
