A new mechanism of the Verway transition in magnetite (Fe3O4), which has been argued to be a charge ordering transition so far, is proposed. Based on the mean field calculations for the three band model of spinless fermions appropriate for…

The crystal structure of Fe3O4 below the 122 K Verwey transition has been refined using high-resolution X-ray and neutron powder diffraction data. The refinements give direct evidence for charge ordering (CO) over four independent…

We provide evidence for the existence of a {\em quantum critical point} at the metallization of magnetite Fe$_{3}$O$_{4}$ at an applied pressure of $p_{c} \approx 8$ GPa. We show that the present ac magnetic susceptibility data support…

At ambient conditions, the Fe$_3$O$_4$(001) surface shows a $(\sqrt{2}\times \sqrt{2})R45^o$ reconstruction that has been proposed as the surface analog of the bulk phase below the Verwey transition temperature, T$_V$. The reconstruction…

Recent theoretical studies [Chen et al., Phys. Rev. B 82, 174440 (2010), Ishizuka et al., Phys. Rev. B 90, 184422 (2014)] for the magnetic Mott insulator Ba2NaOsO6 have proposed a low-temperature order parameter that breaks lattice…

We studied the electrical transport on $\beta$-Fe$_{4+\delta}$Se$_{5}$ single-crystal nanowires, exhibiting $\sqrt{5}\times\sqrt{5}$ Fe-vacancy order and mixed valence of Fe. We observed a first-order metal-insulator transition of the…

We present infrared and Raman measurements of magnetite (Fe_3O_4). This material is known to undergo a metal-insulator and a structural transition (Verwey transition) at T_V=120K. At temperatures below T_V, we observe a strong gap-like…

We present equilibrium and out-of-equilibrium studies of the Verwey transition in magnetite. In the equilibrium optical conductivity, we find a step-like change at the phase transition for photon energies below about 2 eV. The possibility…

Itinerant metamagnetism transition is observed and studied in perovskite La1-xCaxMn0.90Cu0.10O3 system for x = 0.30. At a constant low temperature, 10 K < T < 150 K, there is a continuous second-order metamagnetism jump from a low magnetic…

Using low-energy electron diffraction, we show that the room-temperature $(\sqrt{2}\times\sqrt{2})R45^\circ$ reconstruction of Fe$_3$O$_4$(100) reversibly disorders at $\sim$450 $^\circ$C. Short-range order persists above the transition,…

Motivated by recent structural data questioning the adequacy of the charge order (CO)/disorder picture for the Verwey transition (at T=T_V) in magnetite, we re-investigate this issue within a new theoretical picture. Using the…

We have studied experimentally the responses of high quality single crystals of stoichiometric synthetic magnetite to applied weak dc and ac magnetic fields in the range of 6 K to 60 K, far below the Verwey transition. The results can be…

We report high-pressure low-temperature Raman studies of the Verwey transition in pure and Al-doped magnetite (Fe_3O_4). The low temperature phase of magnetite displays a number of additional Raman modes that serve as transition markers.…

In order to probe the magnetic ground state, we have carried out temperature dependent magnetic Compton scattering experiments on an oriented single crystal of magnetite (Fe$_3$O$_4$), together with the corresponding first-principles band…

Symmetry breaking across phase transitions often causes changes in selection rules and emergence of optical modes which can be detected via spectroscopic techniques or generated coherently in pump-probe experiments. In second-order or…

Ultrafast photo-induced phase transitions occurring under the impact of femtosecond laser pulses provide versatile opport unities for switching solids between distinctly-different crystalline, electronic, and magnetic states and thus modify…

The magnetotransport properties were studied in hundreds of micrometer length double-wall carbon nanotubes (DWCNT) bundles. Above 15 K the resistance shows an ohmic behavior and its temperature dependence is well described using the…

We report the existence of a field-induced ferromagnetic transition in the magnetically ordered state (<69 K) of an intermetallic compound, Tb5Si3, and this transition is distinctly first-order at 1.8 K (near 60 kOe), whereas it appears to…

It is argued that both transitions observed in 50%-doped manganites, at the N\'{e}el temperature ($T_{\rm N}$) and the so-called charge ordering temperature ($T_{\rm CO}$), are magnetic. $T_{\rm N}$ corresponds to the order-disorder…

Thin films of magnetite (Fe3O4) are grown on single crystal GaAs (100) substrate by pulsed laser deposition. X ray diffraction (XRD) result shows the (111) preferred orientation of the Fe3O4 film and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy confirm…
