The history of low dimensional conductors goes back to the
prediction, more than forty years ago, by Peierls, of the
instability of a one dimensional metallic chain, leading to what is
known now as the charge density wave state. At the same time,
Frohlich suggested that an "ideal" conductivity could be associated
to the sliding of this charge density wave. Since then, several
classes of compounds, including layered transition metal
dichalcogenides, quasi one-dimensional organic conduc tors and
transition metal tri- and tretrachalcogenides have been extensively
studied. The molybdenum bronzes or oxides have been discovered or
rediscovered as low dimensional conductors in this last decade. A
considerable amount of work has now been performed on this subject
and it was time to collect some review papers in a single book.
Although this book is focused on the molybdenum bronzes and oxides,
it has a far more general interest in the field of low dimensional
conductors, since several of the molybdenum compounds provide, from
our point of view, model systems. This is the case for the quasi
one-dimensional blue bronze, especially due to the availability of
good quality large single crystals. This book is intended for
scientists belonging to the fields of solid state physics and
chemistry as well as materials science. It should especially be
useful to many graduate students involved in low dimensional
oxides. It has been written by recognized specialists of low
dimensional systems.
