Structural, magnetic, and dielectric properties of Sm$_2$CoMnO$_6$ have been studied. X-ray diffraction and Rietveld analysis show that the sample crystallizes in the monoclinic structure with \textit{P2$_1$/n} space group. Magnetic study…

We report the observation of Peierls-type metal-insulator transition in carbon nanostructures formed by chemical vapor deposition inside the pore network of the ZSM-5 zeolite. The Raman spectrum of this nanocarbon@ZSM-5 indicates a clear…

We consider the properties of the type II Weyl semimetals at low temperatures basing on the particular tight - binding model. In the presence of electric field directed along the line connecting the Weyl points of opposite chirality the…

Single crystals of a new ternary aluminide ErV$_2$Al$_{20}$ were grown using a self-flux method. The crystal structure was determined by powder X-ray diffraction measurements and Rietveld refinement, and physical properties were studied by…

VO2, of interest for decades due to both its phenomenology and its potential applications, has a monoclinic distortion of the rutile crystal structure at ambient temperature that is coupled to its metal-insulator transition (MIT). In…

Amorphous vanadium dioxide (VO$_{2}$) films deposited by atomic layer deposition (ALD) were crystallized with an ex situ anneal at 660-670 ${\deg}$C for 1-2 hours under a low oxygen pressure (10$^{-4}$ to 10$^{-5}$ Torr). Under these…

We report the synthesis, crystal structure, physical properties, and first-principles calculations of a vanadium-based oxytelluride Rb$_{1-\delta}$V$_2$Te$_2$O ($\delta\approx0.2$). The crystal structure bears two-dimensional V$_2$O square…

Crystal and magnetic structures of $R_2$Ni$_2$In ($R$ = Tb and Ho) have been studied by powder neutron diffraction at low temperatures. The compounds crystallize in an orthorhombic crystal structure of the Mn$_2$AlB$_2$-type. At low…

The structural and magnetic properties of BaMn2Si2O7 have been investigated. The magnetic susceptibility and specific heat, measured using single crystals, suggest that the quasi-one-dimensional magnetism originating from the loosely…

Vanadium dioxide (VO2) undergoes a phase transition at a temperature of 340 K between an insulating monoclinic M1 phase and a conducting rutile phase. Accurate measurements of possible anisotropy of the electronic properties and phonon…

Ferroelectrics are essential in low-dimensional memory devices for multi-bit storage and high-density integration. A polar structure is a necessary premise for ferroelectricity, mainly existing in compounds. However, it is usually rare in…

Co3Si was recently reported to exhibit remarkable magnetic properties in the nanoparticle form [Appl. Phys. Lett. 108, 152406 (2016)], yet better understanding of this material is to be promoted. Here we report a study on the crystal…

The vanadates VO$_2$ and V$_2$O$_3$ are prototypical examples of strongly correlated materials that exhibit a metal-insulator transition. While the phase transitions in these materials have been studied extensively, there is a limited…

Structural, magnetization and heat capacity studies were performed on Ce$_2$(Pd$_{1-x}$Ni$_x$)$_2$Sn ($0 \leq x \leq 1$) alloys. The substitution of Pd atoms by isoelectronic Ni leads to a change in the crystallographic structure from…
