A theory of thermoelectric phenomena in superfluid $^4He$ is developed. It is found an estimation of the dipole moment of helium atom arising due to electron shell deformation caused by pushing forces from the side of its surrounding atoms.…
Asymmetry measurements were conducted in Jefferson Lab's experimental Hall A through electron scattering from a polarized $^3$He target in the quasi-elastic $^3\mathrm{He}(e,e'n)$ reaction. Measurements were made with the target polarized…
Recent experiments on amorphous materials have established the existence of surface states similar to those of crystalline three-dimensional topological insulators (TIs). Amorphous topological insulators are also independently of interest…
The structural, superconducting, and electronic phase diagram of [Tl4]Tl1-xSnxTe3 is reported. Magnetization and specific heat measurements show bulk superconductivity exists for 0 < x < 0.4. Resistivity measurements indicate a crossover…
The mean square atomic displacement in hcp-phase solid He-4 has been measured in crystals with a molar volume of 21.3 cm^3. It is temperature independent from 1 K to 140 mK, with no evidence for an anomaly in the vicinity of the proposed…
We analyze the time profile $\Delta T(t)$ of the temperature difference, measured across a very compressible supercritical $^3$He fluid layer in its convective state. The experiments were done along the critical isochore in a…
AC and DC electrical measurements between 273 and 800 K were used to characterize the electrical conductivity of Al_2 O_3:Mg single crystals containing [Mg]^{0} center. At low fields contacts are blocking. At high fields, electrical current…
High resolution measurements reveal that condensation isotherms of $^4$He in a silica aerogel become discontinuous below a critical temperature. We show that this behaviour does not correspond to an equilibrium phase transition modified by…
We describe a set-up for studying adsorption of helium in silica aerogels, where the adsorbed amount is easily and precisely controlled by varying the temperature of a gas reservoir between 80 K and 180 K. We present validation experiments…
We report on thermodynamic and optical measurements of the condensation process of $^4$He in two silica aerogels of same porosity 95%, but different microstructures resulting from different pH during synthesis. For a base-catalyzed aerogel,…
We investigated the thermal transport properties of two $\alpha$-RuCl$_3$ crystals with different degrees of stacking disorder to understand the origin of the previously reported oscillatory feature in the field dependence of thermal…
We have investigated the adsorption and desorption of helium near its liquid-vapor critical point in silica aerogels with porosities between 95% and 98%. We used a capacitive measurement technique which allowed us to probe the helium…
Helium films show various quantum phases that undergo quantum phase transitions by changing coverage n. We found anomalous elastic phenomena in bosonic 4He and fermionic 3He films adsorbed on a glass substrate. The films stiffen under AC…
In this study, the effects of annealing under tellurium vapor have been investigated for Fe$_{1.03}$Te$_{0.8}$Se$_{0.2}$ single crystals. The as-grown crystal is not superconducting. After annealing it at 400 $^\circ$C for 250 h in…
We study the temperature dependence of the conductivity of the 2D electronic solid. In realistic samples, a domain structure forms in the solid and each domain randomly orients in the absence of the in-plane field. At higher temperature,…
We studied a novel cooling method, in which $^3$He and $^4$He are mixed at the $^4$He crystallization pressure at temperatures below $0.5\,\mathrm{mK}$. We describe the experimental setup in detail, and present an analysis of its…
We present a detailed study of single crystalline K$_{2}$Cr$_{3}$As$_{3}$ and analyze its thermodynamic and transport properties, anisotropic $H_{c2}(T)$, and initial pressure-dependence of $T_{c}$. In zero-field, the temperature-dependent…
$^4$He nanodroplets doped with an alkali ion feature a snowball of crystallized layers surrounded by superfluid helium. For large droplets, we predict that a transitional supersolid layer can form, bridging between the solid core and the…
The freezing and melting of $^{4}$He in various aerogels with porosities ranging from 92 to 97% was studied using longitudinal ultrasound. The freezing pressure, detected by a change in velocity and attenuation, was elevated from that of…
The critical-velocity behavior of oscillatory superfluid Helium-4 flow through a 2-micrometer by 2-micrometer aperture in a 0.1-micrometer-thick foil has been studied from 0.36 K to 2.10 K at frequencies from less than 50 Hz up to above…
