Evidence for a Peierls transition in the blue bronzes K0.30MoO 3 and Rb0.30MoO3

TL;DR: In this article, the phase transition of the blue bronzes can be viewed as a Peierls distortion and the anisotropic electrical resistivity is consistent with a quasi one-dimensional conduction band built on hybridized molybdenum 4d and oxygen pπ orbitals.

Optical and electrochromic properties of heated and annealed MoO 3 thin films

TL;DR: In this article, the optical properties of slightly blue molybdenum trioxide thin films were investigated with a view to phonon and polaron species and temperature-dependent change in the optical band gap has also been interpreted in terms of band gap slope, B, and the real part of the refractive index, n.

Charge density wave formation accompanying ferromagnetic ordering in quasi-one-dimensional BaIrO3

TL;DR: The magnetic, transport, optical, and structural properties of quasi-one-dimensional BaIrO 3 show evidence for the simultaneous onset of electronic density wave formation and ferromagnetism at Tc3a 175 K.

Charge-density-wave instabilities in the low-dimensional molybdenum bronzes and oxides

TL;DR: The molybdenum bronzes A 0·30MoO3, A0·9Mo6O17 and Mo4O11 oxides all show low-dimensional electronic properties, due to anisotropic crystal structures, which lead to charge-density-wave (CDW) instabilities as discussed by the authors.

Narrow-band electrons in transition-metal oxides

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that spontaneous crystallographic distortions associated with semiconducting ⇄ metallic phase changes manifest the existence of narrow, cation-sublattice bands if the cations are removed from the centers of symmetry of their interstices, narrow crystalline bands otherwise.

Low-temperature specific heat and magnetic susceptibility of nonmetallic vanadium bronzes

TL;DR: In this paper, a linear term of specific heat was observed in the low-temperature specific heat behavior of nonmetallic vanadiumoxide bronzes of sodium and copper, and it was postulated that the centers in these bronzes form near-neighbor pairs or bipolarons through deformation-induced attraction.
