Electronic structure and transport properties of uniaxially deformed m - TaS₃

Abstract
Due to relative simplicity of its crystal and electronic band structure, apparent absence of any temperature or strain induced commensurate-incommensurate transitions monoclinic (m-) TaS₃ may be regarded as a parent compound for the whole family of transition metal trichalcogenides. In present work an attempt is made to relate the recently obtained results in studying electronic properties of uniaxially deformed m-TaS₃ [1] with the band-structure calculation [2].
