Anomalous thermal transport and violation of Wiedemann-Franz law in the critical regime of a charge density wave transition

Erik D. Kountz, Jiecheng Zhang, Joshua A. W. Straquadine +5

ErTe is studied as a model system to explore thermal transport in a layered charge density wave (CDW) material. We present data from thermal diffusivity, resistivity, and speci…
