Abstract
The charge-density-wave transition in , which results in a commensurate superlattice at temperatures below , presumably involves softening of a zone-boundary phonon mode. For the first time, this phonon-softening behavior has been examined over a wide temperature range by synchrotron x-ray thermal diffuse scattering.
