We predict a new type of phase transition in a quasi-two dimensional system of electrons at high magnetic fields, namely the stabilization of a density wave which transforms a two dimensional open Fermi surface into a periodic chain of…
We present a coordinated study of the paramagnetic-to-antiferromagnetic, rhombohedral-to-monoclinic, and metal-to-insulator transitions in thin-film specimens of the classic Mott insulator V$_2$O$_3$ using low-energy muon spin relaxation,…
A theory of the metal-insulator transition in vanadium dioxide from the high-temperature rutile to the low- temperature monoclinic phase is proposed on the basis of cluster dynamical mean field theory, in conjunction with the density…
Neutron spectroscopy has revealed a highly unusual magnetic structure and dynamics in YVO$_3$, an insulating pseudocubic perovskite that undergoes a series of temperature induced phase transitions between states with different spin and…
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…
As a member of the Ruddlesden-Popper Ln$_{n+1}$Ni$_n$O$_{3n+1}$ series rare-earth-nickelates, the Pr4Ni$_3$O$_{10}$ consists of infinite quasi-two-dimensional perovskite-like Ni-O based layers. Although a metal-to-metal phase transition at…
V2O3 nanocrystals can be synthesized through hydrothermal reduction of VO(OH)2 using hydrazine as a reducing agent. Addition of different ligands to the reaction produces nanoparticles, nanorods and nanoplatelets of different sizes. Small…

To compare the metal-insulator transitions (MITs) of VO2 and V2O3 we analyze the relations between the structural and electronic properties of the vanadium Magneli phases. These materials set up the homologous series VnO(2n-1) (3 <= n <= 9)…

We present the first measurements of magnetisation and Raman light scattering on $\alpha'-NaV_2O_5$ single crystals. Below 34 K, we observe a pronounced isotropic decrease of the susceptibility indicating the opening of a spin gap. The…
The popular dual electronic (Mott) and structural (Peierls) transitions in VO2 are explored using x-ray absorption spectromicroscopy with high spatial and spectral resolutions. It is found that during both heating and cooling, the…
Thin films of VO$_2$ on different substrates, Al$_2$O$_3$ and SiO$_2$/Si, have been prepared and characterized from room temperature up to 360 K. From the band structure in the rutile metallic phase and in the monoclinic insulating phase…
