Thermal quenching has been used to find metastable materials such as hard steels and metallic glasses. More recently, quenching-based phase control has been applied to correlated electron systems that exhibit metal--insulator, magnetic or…
In order to find a highly efficient, environment-friendly magnetic refrigerant, direct measurements of the adiabatic temperature change $\Delta T_{adb}$ is required. Here, in this work, a simple setup for the $\Delta T_{adb}$ measurement is…
Considerable experimental skills have been accumulated in the preparation of field-cooled (FC) magnetic materials. This stimulates the search for FC magnetic materials that are superconductors. The article overviews the recent proposed…
Phases that go beyond dipolar ordering and into multipolar ordering have recently been observed in magneto-electric materials. The resulting phase diagram is commonly explained using the concept of competing orders and exact microscopic…
Magnetic molecules are a class of compounds that is also investigated in view of their magnetocaloric properties. The isothermal entropy change and the adiabatic temperature change are key figures of merit for magnetocaloric performance.…
The effect of a magnetic field on Mott-Hubbard systems is investigated by studying the half-filled Hubbard model in the limit of infinite dimensions. A first-order metamagnetic transition between the strongly correlated metal and the Mott…
In contrast to the experimentally widely used isentropic demagnetization process for cooling to ultra-low temperatures we examine a particular classical model system that does not cool, but rather heats up with isentropic demagnetization.…
The use of materials in particle accelerator applications implies the consideration of physical properties in different environments than usual industrial applications. Cryogenic temperatures, high radiation, medium to high vacuum and high…
We describe magneto-, baro- and elastocaloric effects (MCEs, BCEs and eCEs) in materials which possess both discontinuous (first-order) and continuous (second-order) magnetic phase transitions. Our ab initio theory of the interacting…
Various types of metal-insulator transitions are discussed to find conditions for which an ideal surface of a bulk insulator is metallic. It is argued that for the correlation-driven Mott metal-insulator transition the surface phase diagram…
An excellent molecule-based cryogenic magnetic refrigerant, gadolinium acetate tetrahydrate, is here used to decorate selected portions of silicon substrate. By quantitative magnetic force microscopy for variable applied magnetic field near…
We investigate the nature of the phase transition for charged scalars in the presence of a magnetic background for a theory with spontaneous symmetry breaking. We perform a careful treatment of the negative mass squared as a function of the…
Since electronic and magnetic properties of many transition-metal oxides can be efficiently controlled by external factors such as the temperature, pressure, electric or magnetic field, they are regarded as promising materials for various…
We show that some experimentally observed features of vortex matter in high temperature superconductors may be interpreted in simpler ways than it is usually done. In particular, we consider magnetic flux creep at low temperatures as well…
Magnetic materials with high mobilities are intriguing subject of research from both fundamental and application perspectives. Based on first-principle calculations, we investigate the physical properties of the already synthesized AMnBi(A…
Magnetic materials, both hard and soft, are used extensively in several components of particle accelerators. Magnetically soft iron-nickel alloys are used as shields for the vacuum chambers of accelerator injection and extraction septa;…
Currently, aging effects occurring in multilayer systems attract much attention from researchers. In our research we looked at the behavior of multilayer systems that depend on anisotropy, magnetoresistance and susceptibility.All these…
The magnetic field and temperature dependencies of the magnetic moments of superconducting crystals of ${\rm V_{3}Si}$ have been studied. In a constant magnetic field and at temperatures somewhat below the superconducting transition…
We explored the Fe rich side of the (Mn,Fe)2(P,Ge) magnetocaloric system. The transition temperature of this system is extremely easy to tune with careful manipulation of Fe and Ge content as well as stoichiometrical proportions, which…
In this work we conduct a numerical search of non-trivial mechanisms, leading to new tendencies towards long-range ferromagnetic ordering in two-dimensional materials. For this purpose we employ an original variant of pairwise infinitesimal…
