We report a systematic study of the $5d$-electron-doped system Ce(Fe$_{1-x}$Ir$_x$)$_2$Al$_{10}$ ($0 \leq x \leq 0.15$). With increasing $x$, the orthorhombic $b$~axis decreases slightly while accompanying changes in $a$ and $c$ leave the…

Phases of matter are conventionally characterized by order parameters describing the type and degree of order in a system. For example, crystals consist of spatially ordered arrays of atoms, an order that is lost as the crystal melts. Like-…

It was recently discovered that in spite of the scalar nature of its order parameter, the charge order in 1T-TiSe2 can be chiral. This is made possible by the emergence of orbital order in conjunction with the charge density modulations.…

Anisotropic charge transport is observed in a two-dimensional (2D) hole system in a perpendicular magnetic field at filling factors nu=7/2 and nu=11/2 for temperatures below 150mK. In stark contrast, the transport at nu=9/2 is isotropic for…
