2D Sections of the Fermi surfaces of quasi-one-dimensional crystals. (a) Non-interacting metallic chains parallel to [0 0 1] with (k1,k2,0) describing vectors perpendicular to the chains. (b) Weakly interacting metallic chains resulting in a warping of the Fermi surface. Perfect nesting is obtained for = (0,1/2,q3), where q3 assumes the value such that fulfills the nesting condition. Notice that the second half of the Fermi surface is nested by = , which is equivalent to . |
