Raman scattering experiments on Na_{x}CoO_2 yH_2O single crystals show a broad electronic continuum with a pronounced peak around 100 cm-1 and a cutoff at approximately 560 cm-1over a wide range of doping levels. The electronic Raman…
We have combined elastic and inelastic neutron scattering techniques, magnetic susceptibility and resistivity measurements to study single-crystal samples of K$_x$Fe$_{2-y}$Se$_2$, which contain the superconducting phase that has a…
An electron nematic is a translationally invariant state which spontaneously breaks the discrete rotational symmetry of a host crystal. In a clean square lattice, the electron nematic has two preferred orientations, while dopant disorder…
We use the two fluid model to determine the conditions under which the nuclear spin-lattice lattice relaxation rate, $T_1$, of candidate heavy quantum critical superconductors can exhibit scaling behavior and find that it can occur if and…
We report a 75-As single crystal NMR investigation of LaFeAsO, the parent phase of a pnictide high Tc superconductor. We demonstrate that spin dynamics develop a strong two-fold anisotropy within each orthorhombic domain below the…
A central challenge for understanding unconventional superconductivity in most strongly correlated electronic materials is their complicated band structure and presence of competing orders. In contrast, quasi-two-dimensional organic spin…
Electronic nematicity has been found in a wide range of strongly correlated electron materials, resulting in the electronic states having a symmetry that is lower than that of the crystal that hosts them. One of the most astonishing…
Various forms of spin and charge ordering have been identified in a wide range of cuprate superconducting materials, but whether these behaviors are ubiquitous phenomena is not established. In this work we focus on one of the simplest…
There are increasing indications that superconductivity competes with other orders in cuprate superconductors, but obtaining direct evidence with bulk-sensitive probes is challenging. We have used resonant soft x-ray scattering to identify…
The superconducting phase transition in YBa$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$O$_{7-\textit{$\delta $}}$(YBCO) thin film samples doped with non-superconducting nanodot impurities of CeO$_{2}$ are the focus of recent high-temperature superconductor studies.…
The thermal conductivity of a YBCO single crystal has been studied as a function of the relative orientation of the crystal axes and a magnetic field rotating in the Cu-O planes. Measurements were carried out at several temperatures below…
Contradictory results on the ferroelectric response of type II multiferroic YBaCuFeO$_{5}$, in its incommensurate phase, has of late, opened up a lively debate. There are ambiguous reports on the nature of the spiral magnetic state. Using…
We discovered the enhancement of superconducting transition temperature, Tc, in yttrium sesquicarbide system with the maximum Tc of Tc=18K and their superconducting properties were discussed. The crystal structure of Y2C3 is the…
The proximity effect of a C-type antiferromagnet (C-AFM) with the spin canting at low temperature is investigated in the hybrid Nd0.35Sr0.65MnO3(NSCO)/YBa2Cu3O7(YBCO) oxide system through magnetic and transport measurements. It is found…
Complex electronic matter exhibit subtle forms of self organization which are almost invisible to the available experimental tools, but which have dramatic physical consequences. One prominent example is provided by the actinide based heavy…
The operation mechanism of nematic liquid crystals lies in the control of their optical properties by the orientation of underlying nematic directors. In analogy, electronic nematicity refers to a state whose electronic properties…
Although spin fluctuations are central to the physics of high-Tc cuprates, their relevance to strange-metal behavior in the overdoped regime remains unclear. Here, we use high magnetic fields to suppress superconductivity and an NMR…
Optimally doped YBCO (YBa$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$O$_{7}$) has a high critical temperature, at 92 K. It is largely believed that Cooper pairs form in YBCO and other cuprates because of spin fluctuations, the issue and the detailed mechanism is far…
At a temperature of roughly 1\,K, \ce{Sr2RuO4} undergoes a transition from a normal Fermi liquid to a superconducting phase. Even while the former is relatively simple and well understood, the superconducting state is not even after 25…
We find that the compounds for RE = Y, La-Dy, crystallize in the tetragonal Ibam (U$_2$Co$_3$Si$_5$ type) structure whereas the compounds for RE = Er-Lu, crystallize in a new orthorhombic structure with a space group Pmmn. Samples of…
