The effects of Co addition on the chemical and electronic structure of PbTiO$_3$ were explored both by theory and through experiment. Cobalt was incorporated to PbTiO$_3$ during sol gel process. The XRD data of the compounds confirmed the…
We study theoretically the electron correlation effect in a three-dimensional Dirac fermion system which describes a topologically nontrivial state. It is shown within the mean-field approximation that time-reversal and inversion symmetries…
Here a recently observed weak first order transition in doped SrTiO3 is argued to be a consequence of the coupling between strain and order parameter fluctuations. Starting with a semi-microscopic action, and using renormalization group…
A comprehensive angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy study of the band structure in single layer cuprates is presented with the aim of uncovering universal trends across different materials. Five different hole- and electron-doped…
It is known that a nucleus with charge $Ze$ where $Z>170$ creates electron-positron pairs from the vacuum. These electrons collapse onto the nucleus resulting in a net charge $Z_n<Z$ while the positrons are emitted. This effect is due to…
The phase diagram of Sr_1-xEu_xTiO_3 is determined experimentally by electron paramagnetic resonance and resistivity measurements and analyzed theoretically within the self-consistent phonon approximation as a function of x ([0.03-1.0]).…
The local structure of V$_{2}$O$_{3}$, an archetypal strongly correlated electron system that displays a metal-insulator transition around 160 K, has been investigated via pair distribution function (PDF) analysis of neutron and x-ray total…
Interlayer coupling effects between high mobility two-dimensional superconductors are studied in bilayer delta-doped SrTiO3 heterostructures. By tuning the undoped SrTiO3 spacer layer between the dopant planes, clear tunable coupling is…
It was reported earlier [Phys. Rev. Lett. 106, 056401 (2011)] that the skutterudite structure compound CoSb$_3$ displays a unique band structure with a topological transition versus a symmetry-preserving sublattice (Sb) displacement very…
The crystal structure of bulk SrTiO$_3$(STO) transitions from cubic to tetragonal at around 105K. Recent local scanning probe measurements of LaAlO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ (LAO/STO) interfaces indicated the existence of spatially inhomogeneous…
SrNi$_2$P$_2$ is unique among the ThCr$_2$Si$_2$ class since it exhibits a temperature induced transition upon cooling from an uncollapsed tetragonal (ucT) state to a one-third-collapsed orthorhombic (tcO) state where one out of every three…
We investigate the mechanism of the resonant X-ray scattering on the Ti $K$ edge region of YTiO$_3$ using the band structure calculation combined with the local density approximation. A large intensity is obtained for the orbital…
Rutile TiO2 is a paradigmatic transition metal oxide with applications in optics, electronics, photocatalysis, etc., that are subject to pervasive electron-phonon interaction. To understand how energies of its electronic bands, and in…
The structural transformation of multiferroic EuTiO$_3$ has been intensively investigated by synchrotron x-ray diffraction at pressures up to 50.3 GPa and temperatures from 50 to 500 K. An antiferrodistortive phase transition from cubic…
In-situ diffuse neutron scattering experiments revealed that when electric current is passed through single crystals of rutile TiO2 under conditions conducive to flash sintering, it induces the formation of parallel planes of oxygen…
The 5d pyrochlore oxide superconductor Cd2Re2O7 (CRO) has attracted significant interest as a spin-orbit-coupled metal (SOCM) that spontaneously undergoes a phase transition to an odd-parity multipole phase by breaking the spatial inversion…
Relating the band structure of correlated semimetals to their transport properties is a complex and often open issue. The partial occupation of numerous electron and hole bands can result in properties that are seemingly in contrast with…
We examine superconductivity in LaAlO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ channels in which the channel width transitions from the 1D to 2D regime. The superconducting critical current is independent of the channel width and increases approximately linearly with…
Polar discontinuities occurring at interfaces between two different materials constitute both a challenge and an opportunity in the study and application of a variety of devices. In order to cure the large electric field occurring in such…
Despite its simple structure and low degree of electronic correlation, SrTiO$_3$ (STO) features collective phenomena linked to charge transport and, ultimately, superconductivity, that are not yet fully explained. Thus, a better insight in…
