Motivated by recent experiments involving the non-destructive imaging of magnetization of a spin-1 87Rb Bose gas (Higbie et al., cond-mat/0502517), we address the question of how the spontaneous magnetization of a ferromagnetic BEC occurs…
Recent claim of discovering above-room-temperature superconductivity (Tc about 400 K) at ambient pressure in copper doped apatite $Pb_{10}\left( PO_4 \right) _6O$ has stimulated world-wide enthusiasm and impulse of motion. A lot of…
We describe the doping effects on a metallic breathing pyrochlore compound, Cr4PtGa17. Upon doping with Sb, i.e., Cr4Pt(Ga1-xSbx)17, it was found that a selective doping on one of the seven Ga sites occurs. With increasing dopant level, the…

In metal/degenerately doped silicon bilayer structure, the interfacial flexoelectric effect due to strain gradient leads to charge carrier transfer from metal layer to the silicon layer. This excess charge carrier concentration is called…
Cu-doped type-I germanium clathrate can exhibit dilute magnetism, including ferromagnetism, antiferromagnetism, and metamagnetic transitions up to 90 K. 63Cu NMR measurements confirm that these transitions are due to a dilute composition of…
Room-temperature ferromagnetism has been observed in the nanoparticles (7 - 30 nm dia) of nonmagnetic oxides such as CeO2, Al2O3, ZnO, In2O3 and SnO2. The saturated magnetic moments in CeO_2 and Al_2O_3 nanoparticles are comparable to those…
