Abstract
Binary and ternary molybdenum oxides have become a subject of many experimental and theoretical studies because most of them are low-dimensional metals and exhibit interesting physical properties associated with their electronic instabilities [1–4]. Red bronzes A0.33MoO3 (A = Li, K, Rb, Cs, T1) are semiconductors, while the blue bronzes A0.3MoO3 (A = K, Rb, T1), the purple bronzes AMo6O17 (A = K, Na, T1) and Li0.9Mo6O17, the Magnéli phases Mo4O11 and Mo8O23, and the rare-earth bronze La2Mo2O7 are all metals at room temperature. A series of tungsten oxides, i.e., the monophosphate tungsten bronzes (MPTB’s) [5], are also metallic and have been recently found to exhibit anomalous transport properties [6–9]. All these oxides contain metal-oxygen (M-O) layers made up of edge- and corner-sharing MO6 octahedra, with large and structurally complex unit cells [5, 10–12].
