charge-density wave
1Spin density wave — (SDW) and charge density wave (CDW) are names for two similar low energy ordered states of solids. Both these states occur at low temperature in anisotropic, low dimensional materials or in metals that have high densities of states at the Fermi… …
2spin-density wave — noun The low energy, ground state of a metal in which densities of the electron spins and charges follow a regular spatial distribution See Also: charge density wave …
3Charge ordering — (CO) is a (first or second order) phase transition occurring mostly in strongly correlated materials such as transition metal oxides or organic conductors. Due to the strong interaction, the charge is localized on different sites leading to a… …

8Wave equation — Not to be confused with Wave function. The wave equation is an important second order linear partial differential equation for the description of waves – as they occur in physics – such as sound waves, light waves and water waves. It arises in… …
9Electromagnetic wave equation — The electromagnetic wave equation is a second order partial differential equation that describes the propagation of electromagnetic waves through a medium or in a vacuum. The homogeneous form of the equation, written in terms of either the… …
