title: Transverse conductivity in the sliding charge-density-wave state of NbSe3.
abstract: The dynamical properties of longitudinal and transverse conduction of NbSe3 single crystals have been simultaneously studied when the current is applied along the b axis (chain direction). In the vicinity of the threshold electric field for charge-density-wave sliding, the transverse conduction sharply decreases. When a rf field is applied, voltage Shapiro steps for longitudinal transport are observed as usual but also current Shapiro steps in the transverse direction. The possible mechanisms of this effect are discussed.
