The contribution of $O^{2-}$ ions to antiferromagnetism in $La_{2-x}Ae_xCuO_4$ ($Ae = Sr, Ba)$ is highly sensitive to doped holes. In contrast, the contribution of $Cu^{2+}$ ions to antiferromagnetism in $Nd_{2-x}Ce_xCuO_{4+y}$ is much less…

We report measurements of the Nernst and Seebeck effects in Nd$_{1-x}$Sr$_x$NiO$_2$ thin films near the superconducting transition temperature, $T$ = 6.5 - 15 K. Our main result is the observation of a vortex-Nernst signal $S_{yx}(T,H)$…
The striped cuprate La$_{2-x}$Ba$_x$CuO$_4$ ($x=\frac18)$ undergoes several transitions below the charge-ordering temperature $T_{co}$ = 54 K. From Nernst experiments, we find that, below $T_{co}$, there exists a large, anomalous Nernst…
