Abstract

First we calculate the tunneling density of states of quasi-two dimensional charge density waves (CDW) or spin density waves (SDW) in the presence of impurity scattering. Second, we consider the tunneling current between two CDWs or two SDWs. We point out the existence of new contribution, which gives rise to the a.c. current when one CDW is sliding relative to the other one.
