As a simple cubic system with only one f electron per cerium ion, CeB6 is of model character to investigate the interplay of orbital phenomena with magnetism. It is also a textbook example of a compound that exhibits magnetically hidden…
Essentially all undoped cuprates exhibit a quasi-planar, fourfold Cu-O coordination responsible for the magnetically active antibonding 3d-(x^2-y^2)-like state. Here, we present an electronic structure study for CuSb2O6 that reveals, in…

Electronic charge order is a symmetry breaking state in high-$T_\mathrm{c}$ cuprate superconductors. In scanning tunneling microscopy, the detected charge-order-induced modulation is an electronic response of the charge order. For an…
High-temperature superconductivity in cuprates remains one of the enduring puzzles of condensed matter physics, with charge order (CO) playing a central yet elusive role, particularly in the overdoped regime. Here, we employ time-resolved…
In systems with time-reversal symmetry, the orbital magnetization is zero in equilibrium. Recently, it has been proposed that the orbital magnetization can be induced by an electric current in a helical crystal structure in the same manner…
KV3Sb5 has recently attracted a considerable attention, due to its low temperature superconducting properties, which are heralded by a charge density wave. The apparent presence of a very weak magnetism does not result in long range…

Static charge-density wave (CDW) and spin-density wave (SDW) order has been convincingly observed in La-based cuprates for some time. However, more recently it has been suggested by quantum oscillation, transport and thermodynamic…
