Systematic Raman studies on several cuprates (YBa$_{\rm 2}$Cu$_{\rm 3}$O$_{\rm x}$, YBa$_{\rm 2}$Cu$_{\rm 4}$O$_{\rm 8}$ or Bi$_{\rm 2}$Sr$_{\rm 2}$CaCu$_{\rm 2}$O$_{\rm 8}$) have shown that at optimal doping the compounds are at the edge…
We investigate the pressure and temperature dependence of the lattice dynamics of the underdoped, stoichiometric, high temperature superconductor YBa2Cu4O8 by means of Raman spectroscopy and ab initio calculations. This system undergoes a…
Optical excitation in the cuprates has been shown to induce transient superconducting correlations above the thermodynamic transition temperature, $T_C$, as evidenced by the terahertz frequency optical properties in the non-equilibrium…
Varying the superconducting transition temperature over a large scale of a cuprate superconductor is a necessary step for identifying the unsettled mechanism of superconductivity. Chemical doping or element substitution has been proven to…
Hydrostatic pressure Raman measurements have been carried out on the SmFeAsO series of oxypnictides with varying amount of doping (F substitution for O and Co for Fe) and transition temperature (T_{c}), in order to investigate lattice…
Using resonant X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy, we study charge correlations and lattice dynamics in two model cuprates, HgBa$_{2}$CuO$_{4+\delta}$ and HgBa$_{2}$CaCu$_{2}$O$_{6+\delta}$. We observe a maximum of the characteristic…
We examine coherent phonons in a strongly driven sample of optimally-doped high temperature superconductor YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-\delta}$. We observe a non-linear lattice response of the 4.5\,THz copper-oxygen vibrational mode at high…
We present results of Raman scattering experiments on tetragonal ${\rm (Y_{1-y}Ca_{y})Ba_{2}Cu_{3}O_{6+x}}$ for doping levels $p(x,y)$ between 0 and 0.07 holes/CuO$_2$. Below the onset of superconductivity at $p_{\rm sc1} \approx 0.06$, we…
Experimental evidence for a transient enhancement of the superconducting critical temperature in presence of an intense THz or IR pump pulse was ascribed to nonlinear phononics effects. Here I introduce a simple phenomenological…
The superconducting and normal state characteristics of yttrium hexaboride (YB$_6$) have been investigated for the single crystals with a transition temperatures $T_c$ ranging between 6 K and 7.6 K. The extracted set of microscopic…
X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and high resolution X-ray diffraction are combined to study the interplay between electronic and lattice structures in controlling the superconductivity in cuprates with a model charge-compensated…
We investigate coherent lattice dynamics in optimally doped YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-\delta}$ driven by ultrashort ($\sim$ 12 fs) near infrared (NIR) and near ultraviolet (NUV) pulses. Transient reflectivity experiments, performed at room…
Resonant optical excitation of apical oxygen vibrational modes in the normal state of underdoped YBa2Cu3O6+x induces a transient state with optical properties similar to those of the equilibrium superconducting state. Amongst these, a…
We report X-ray diffraction patterns and calculated electronic band structures of the Dirac line-nodal material CaSb$_2$ under pressure. Its superconducting transition temperature ($T_{\mathrm{c}}=1.7$ K) increases under pressure and…
The influence of the hydrostatic pressure P up to 0.95 GPa on the excess conductivity and the pseudogap {\Delta}*(T) in optimally doped YBCO single crystals (T_c = 91.1K at ambient pressure) is investigated by electrical resistivity…
The influence of low-level Pr substitution in Y1-xPrxBa2Cu3O(7-delta) single crystals on the anisotropy of the superconducting state parameters was investigated by torque magnetometry in magnetic fields of up to 9 T. An averaged anisotropy…
We report a detailed Raman scattering study of the lattice dynamics in detwinned single crystals of the underdoped high temperature superconductor YBa2Cu3O6+x (x=0.75, 0.6, 0.55 and 0.45). Whereas at room temperature the phonon spectra of…
Evidence is growing that a second dome of high-$T_\mathrm{c}$ superconductivity can be accessed in the cuprates by increasing the doping beyond the first dome. Here we use \emph{ab initio} methods without invoking any free parameters, such…
The in-plane superexchange interaction $J$ of cuprate superconductors has long been suggested to be an important parameter for exploring their high-temperature superconductivity. The bilayer Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{8+\delta}$ is the most…
In the quasi-one-dimensional superconductor, Pr$_2$Ba$_4$Cu$_7$O$_{15-\delta}$, we found that the lattice parameter, $a$ increased against pressure, starting at 2.0 GPa at approximately 300 K. This result suggests that the two-dimensional…
