摘要:
We discuss charge density wave transport as the periodic flow of a quantum fluid of electron-phonon correlates, viewed as quantum solitons, within the condensate. Pair creation of charged soliton droplets is prevented by their electrostatic energy below a Coulomb-blockade threshold electric field. Above threshold, the quantum fluid flows in drip-like fashion as microscopic entities tunnel coherently from one charging energy macrostate to the next. We summarize the time-correlated soliton tunneling model and compare simulations of coherent oscillations, narrow band noise, and current-voltage characteristics with experiment. We also explore the possibility of collective quantum behavior at room temperature in some materials. Finally, we discuss potential applications in quantum information processing.
