We review the features of the charge density wave (CDW) conductor NbS3 (phase II) and include several additional results from transport, compositional, and structural studies. Particularly, we highlight three central results: (1) In addition to the previously reported CDW transitions at T-P1 = 360K and T-P2 = 150 K, a third CDW transition occurs at a much higher temperature T-P0 approximate to 620 - 650 K; evidence for the nonlinear conductivity of this CDW is presented. (2) We show that the CDW associated with the T-P2 transition arises from S vacancies acting as donors. Such a CDW transition has not been observed before. (3) We demonstrate the exceptional coherence of the T-P1 CDW at room temperature. The effects of uniaxial strain on the CDW transition temperature and transport are reported.
