Popis: | The crystal structure and transport properties of TiS 3 whiskers in the plane of layers (ab) have been studied. Maxima of the logarithmic derivative of resistance, dln R/d(1/T), are observed at 17, 60 and 120 K both along and across the chains. Strong nonlinearity of the current-voltage characteristics has been revealed in both directions. Nonlinear conductivity along the chains is observed up to T=60 K, while in the transverse direction it is observed up to T=130 K. The results indicate possible phase transitions of electrons to collective states, probably, charge density waves. © 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. |
