Abstract

The effect of IR radiation on photoconduction of two charge-density waves (CDWs) in the monoclinic phase of quasi-1D conductor NbS3 (NbS3-II) is studied. For the CDW-1 that emerges at a temperature of ТР1 = 360 К, threshold field Et increases with irradiation power W. For CDW-2 that emerges at a temperature of TP2 = 150 K, field Et decreases due to IR irradiation, which proves anomalous character of CDW-2 and indicates direct photoactivation of its sliding. Extremely high sensitivity of the measured signal to IR radiation is obtained using stimulation of the CDW coherence by the microwave field.
