We study the ground state properties of the simplest quantum link model undergoing a SU(2) lattice gauge invariance, in one spatial dimension.
We observe the existence of a charge-density-wave phase, where matter
nucleates into localized hadrons forming a crystalline structure. We
sketch the phase diagram and analyse the transition to other equilibrium
phases.
