The recent discovery of the van der Waals (vdW) layered heavy fermion antiferromagnetic metal CeSiI offers promising potential for achieving accessible quantum criticality in the two-dimensional (2D) limit. CeSiI exhibits both heavy fermion…
We investigate the zero-temperature ferromagnetic behavior of a two-component repulsive Fermi gas in the presence of a correlated random field that represents an optical speckle pattern. The density is tuned so that the (noninteracting)…
Samarium hexaboride (SmB$_6$), a representative Kondo insulator, has been characterized recently as a likely topological insulator. It is also a material with strong electron correlations, evident by the temperature dependence of its…
We develop a theory of the excitonic phase recently proposed as the zero-field insulating state observed near charge neutrality in monolayer WTe$_2$. Using a Hartree-Fock approximation, we numerically identify two distinct gapped excitonic…
The family of transition metal dipnictides (TMDs) has been of theoretical and experimental interest because this family hosts topological states and extremely large magnetoresistance (MR). Recently, TaAs2, a member of this family, has been…
We generalize the previous exact results of the Nagaoka-type itinerant ferromagnetic states in a three dimensional $t_{2g}$-orbital system to allow for multiple holes. The system is a simple cubic lattice with each site possessing $d_{xy}$,…
We investigate the possibility of ferromagnetic ordering in the non-degenerate Hubbard model on the face-centered cubic lattice within the functional renormalization group technique using temperature as a scale parameter. We assume the…
Around discontinuous (first-order) magnetic phase transitions the strong caloric response of materials to the application of small fields is widely studied for the development of solid-state refrigeration. Typically strong magnetostructural…
We show that when graphene monolayers are disordered, the conductance exhibits a metallic-to-insulating transition, which opens the door to new electronic devices. The transition can be observed by driving the density or Fermi energy…
CaFe2As2 exhibits collapsed tetragonal (cT) structure and varied exotic behavior under pressure at low temperatures that led to debate on linking the structural changes to its exceptional electronic properties like superconductivity,…
A magnetotransport study in magnetically doped (Cd,Mn)Te 2D quantum wells reveals an apparent metal-insulator transition as well as an anomalous intermediate phase just on its metallic side. This phase is characterized by colossal…
The 3D Fermi surface, along with a chiral in-gap state and a Majorana zero energy state, is suggested to play a crucial role in the topologically nontrivial superconductivity in UTe$_2$. However, conflicting experimental observations of the…
Strongly correlated Fermi systems are among the most intriguing and fundamental systems in physics, whose realization in some compounds is still to be discovered. We show that herbertsmithite ZnCu_3(OH)_6Cl_2 can be viewed as a strongly…
A new model is proposed for the strong ferromagnetism associated with partially localized orbitals in the Fe16N2 metallic system which draws substantially from models of heavy fermion metals. The basic idea is that the spatially isolated…
We explain a profound complexity of magnetic interactions of some technologically relevant gadolinium intermetallics using an ab-initio electronic structure theory which includes disordered local moments and strong $f$-electron…
Non-Fermi liquid behavior in some fermionic systems have attracted significant interest in last few decades. Certain pyrochlore iridates with stronger spin-orbit coupling strength have recently been added to the list. Here, we provide…
Ab-initio results for structural and electronic properties of NaCl-type FeN are presented in a framework of plane-wave and ultrasoft pseudopotentials. Competition among different magnetic ordering is examined. We find the ferromagnetic…
Atomically thin two dimensional magnets have given rise to emergent phenomena due to magnetic exchange and spin-orbit coupling showing a great promise for realizing ultrathin device structures. In this paper, we critically examine the…
The RFe$_2$Zn$_{20}$ series manifests strongly correlated electron behavior for the non-magnetic R = Y member and remarkably high temperature, ferromagnetic ordering ($T_C$ = 86 K) for the local moment bearing R = Gd member (a compound that…
The possibility of excitonic condensation in a recently proposed electrically biased double-layer graphene system is studied theoretically. The main emphasis is put on obtaining a reliable analytical estimate for the transition temperature…
