Despite the structural resemblance of certain cuprate and nickelate parent compounds there is a striking spread of $T_c$ among such transition metal oxide superconductors. We adopt a minimal two-orbital $e_g$ model which covers cuprates and…
Single crystals of Tl0.58Rb0.42Fe1.72Se2 are successfully grown with the superconducting transition temperatures Tconset=32K and Tczero=31.4K. The Hall coefficient exhibits a multi-band behavior, which is very similar to that of all other…
Density functional theory calculations of the electronic structure of Ce- and Pu-based heavy fermion superconductors in the so-called 115 family are performed. The gap equation is used to consider which superconducting order parameters are…
For decades, superconductivity in high-Tc cuprates has been viewed as a competitor that suppresses charge-density-wave (CDW) order by reducing its amplitude and spatial extent. Here, we show that this picture is incomplete, as…
In conventional metal superconductors such as aluminum, the large number of weakly bounded Cooper pairs become phase coherent as soon as they start to form. The cuprate high critical temperature ($T_c$) superconductors, in contrast, belong…
