Cover Story: The physics of topological objects is of profound interest in modern condensed matter physics. Notably, in one dimension (1D), boundaries dividing topologically different domains are zero-dimensional defects that may behave as mobile particles and, if they are charged, they carry distinct charge currents from conventional ones. In 1D neutral-ionic transition systems, whose ferroelectricity of electronic origin is of keen interest, we experimentally demonstrated that mobile topological boundaries (neutral-ionic domain walls) with fractional charges, are thermally excited as elementary excitations, and remarkably, bring high electrical conductivity that was theoretically predicted. The 1D electronic ferroelectric is opening a new window for charge transport. View this paper
