The recently discovered structural transition in polymerized KC60 at about 50 K results in a doubling of the unit cell volume and accompanies the metal-insulator transition. Here we show that the (a+c,b,a-c) superstructure results from…

We have performed a scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy study of potassium-doped C60 monolayers (KxC60) on Ag(001) in the regime of x ~ 1. Low temperature annealing (640 K) leads to the formation of two well-ordered KxC60 phases…

A singular evolution toward an insulating phase, shown by 23Na and 13C NMR, has been observed in the superconducting fullerides (NH3)xNaK2C60 for x>1. Unlike most common cases, this insulating phase is non magnetic and 13C spin lattice…

The recent experimental fabrication of monolayer and few-layer C60 polymers paves the way for synthesizing two-dimensional cluster-assembled materials. Compared to atoms with the SO(3) symmetry, clusters as superatoms (e.g., C60) have an…

We report an insulator-metal-insulator transition in films of five metal phthalocyanines (MPc) doped with alkali atoms. Electrical conduction measurements demonstrate that increasing the alkali concentration results in the formation of a…

Metallic K3C60 shows pronounced structure and a sharp Fermi edge in integrated photoemission spectra (PES) while the insulating K4C60 and K6C60 phases display only a broad structureless peak. We find that both types of spectra can be…

The binding energy of A3C60, a conductor, is described well by an ionic solid type calculation. This succeeds because there is little overlap between molecular wave functions on neighbouring sites, so that electrons are practically…

C60 fullerides are uniquely flexible molecular materials that exhibit a rich variety of behavior, including superconductivity and magnetism in bulk compounds, novel electronic and orientational phases in thin films, and quantum transport in…

One monolayer of C60 on one monolayer of hexagonal boron nitride on nickel is investigated by photoemission. Between 150 and 250 K the work function decreases and the binding energy of the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) increases…

We report the complex magnetic phase diagram and electronic structure of Cr2(Te1-xWx)O6 systems. While compounds with different x values possess the same crystal structure, they display different magnetic structures below and above xc =…

Spin correlations in metallic and insulating phases of $V_2O_3$ and its derivatives are investigated using magnetic neutron scattering. Metallic samples have incommensurate spin correlations varying little with hole doping. Paramagnetic…

We studied the charge-orbital ordering in the superlattice of charge-ordered insulating Pr$_{0.5}$Ca$_{0.5}$MnO$_3$ and ferromagnetic metallic La$_{0.5}$Sr$_{0.5}$MnO$_3$ by resonant soft x-ray diffraction. A temperature-dependent…

We report structural, magnetic, transport and thermal properties of single-crystal Ca2Ru1-xIrxO4 (0 < x< 0.65). Ca2RuO4 is a structurally-driven Mott insulator with a metal-insulator transition at TMI = 357 K, which is well separated from…

The phase diagram of Ca$_{2-x}$Sr$_x$RuO$_4$ has been studied by neutron diffraction on powder and single-crystalline samples. The experiments reveal antiferromagnetic order and structural distortions characterized by tilts and rotations of…

We study the electronic structure and magnetic interactions in methylamine-intercalated orthorhombic alkali-doped fullerene (CH3NH2)K3C60 within the density functional theory. As in the simpler ammonia intercalated compound (NH3)K3C60, the…

Optical excitation at terahertz frequencies has emerged as an effective means to manipulate complex solids dynamically. In the molecular solid K3C60, coherent excitation of intramolecular vibrations was shown to transform the high…

We experimentally investigate the structural behavior of an interacting colloidal monolayer being driven across a decagonal quasiperiodic potential landscape created by an optical interference pattern. When the direction of the driving…

We synthesize and spectroscopically investigate monolayer C$_{60}$ on the topological insulator (TI) Bi$_4$Te$_3$. This C$_{60}$/Bi$_4$Te$_3$ heterostructure is characterized by excellent translational order in a novel (4 x 4) C$_{60}$…

The dilute lamellar phase of the nonionic surfactant C$_{12}$EO$_5$ was doped with goethite (iron oxide) nanorods up to a fraction of 5 vol. %. The interaction between the inclusions and the host phase was studied by polarized optical…

The magnetic and structural phase transitions occurring in K$_2$ReCl$_6$ were studied by macroscopic and microscopic techniques. Structural phase transitions associated with rotations of the ReCl$_6$ octahedra lower the symmetry from cubic…
