Concerning the possibility of hidden one-dimensional Fermi surfaces for the K(0.25)WO(3) hexagonal bronze

Inorg Chem. 2009 Dec 21;48(24):11492-4. doi: 10.1021/ic901725f.

Abstract

On the basis of first-principles density functional theory calculations, it is shown that, in contrast with a recent suggestion, K(0.25)WO(3) does not exhibit hidden one-dimensional Fermi surfaces. A charge-density-wave instability should not be at the origin of the resistivity anomaly of this bronze, which most likely results from potassium vacancy ordering.
