Conduction electrons in disordered metals and heavily doped semiconductors at low temperatures preserve their phase coherence for a long time: phase relaxation time $\tau_\phi$ can be orders of magnitude longer than the momentum relaxation…
Electronic phases that lie outside the equilibrium ground state offer a route to explore competing configurations in correlated materials. In 1T-TaS2, ultrafast excitation accesses a metallic hidden phase that is distinct from the…
Results for pseudogaps are obtained from a band model, where the stability of the gap depends on the amplitudes of vibrational displacements, or magnetic moments, and their coupling to electrons. A one-particle gap is favored by normal…
We compare two crystallographic phases of the low-dimensional WP$_2$ to better understand features of electron-electron and electron-phonon interactions in topological systems. The topological $\beta$-phase, a Weyl semimetal with a giant…

I review some of the experimental evidence and theoretical arguments that suggest that pseudogap matter is a new form of matter that coexists with coherent electron matter in the normal state and with superconducting matter below the…
We relate the phase separation observed in many crystals with pronounced electron correlations to the regions of negative electron compressibility. They were found in several models describing strong electron correlations. At low…
Materials exhibiting electronic inhomogeneities at the nanometer scale have enormous potential for applications. Magnetic polarons are one such type of inhomogeneity which link the electronic, magnetic and lattice degrees of freedom in…
In conventional superconductors, the energy scale associated with the superfluid stiffness is much larger compared to the pairing energy and hence, the superconducting transition temperature (Tc) is entirely dictated by the superconducting…

Analyses of experimental data in the literature show thresholds that directly imply a coexistent superconductive (SC) and pseudogap (PG) phase that, to our knowledge, has not been previously identified. The data used emphasize the essences…
One-dimensional (1D) confinement has been revealed to effectively tune the properties of materials in homogeneous states. The 1D physics can be further enriched by electronic inhomogeneity, which unfortunately remains largely unknown. Here…
