Abstract
The electrophysical properties of quasi-one-dimensional conductors with a charge-density wave change qualitatively upon a decrease in their transverse sizes. The temperature and electric-field dependences of the conductivities of thin samples are governed by the laws expected for one-dimensional electron systems. The results of studying these effects and the present-day knowledge of their origin are presented.
