Abstract
We present modalities of self-organized charge response in low dimensional systems, like diverse organic and quantum spin systems, studied by the low-frequency (10 mHz - 1 MHz) dielectric spectroscopy. Density wave structures with the order of commensurability N = 4 can be recognized as phasons in a random impurity potential, whereas those with N = 3 can be viewed as topological defects like charge domain wall pairs in the background domain structure.
