Abstract

A model where phase transitions between the Peierls and periodic soliton wall superlattice (SWS) charge-density-wave phases occur in a magnetic field is proposed. The model accounts for the peculiarities of the electron spectrum in a quasi-one-dimensional conductor (Per)2Pt(mnt)2. Possible experimental investigations of the theoretically predicted phase transitions in (Per)2Pt(mnt)2 to discover a unique SWS phase are discussed.
