The heavy fermion antiferromagnet CeNiGe2 was investigated under pressure by resistivity and ac calorimetry up to 4 GPa and down to 40 mK. The two magnetic transitions found in both resistivity and specific heat at 0.1 GPa at T_N1=3.95 and…

SrTiO$_{3}$ undergoes a cubic-to-tetragonal phase transition at 105K. This antiferrodistortive transition is believed to be in competition with incipient ferroelectricity. Substituting strontium by isovalent calcium induces a ferroelectric…

We report the electronic structure, electric and thermal transport properties of Ru$_{1-x}$Ir$_{x}$Se$_2$ ($x \leq 0.2$). RuSe$_2$ is a semiconductor that crystallizes in a cubic pyrite unit cell. The Seebeck coefficient of RuSe$_2$ exceeds…

We report the discovery of two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) at the surface of thermoelectric material In$_4$Se$_3$ by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. The observed 2DEG exhibits a nearly isotropic band dispersion with a…

Al(110) has been studied for temperatures up to 900 K via ensemble density-functional molecular dynamics. The strong anharmonicity displayed by this surface results in a negative coefficient of thermal expansion, where the first interlayer…

(TaSe$_4$)$_3$I, a compound belonging to the family of quasi-one-dimensional transition-metal tetrachalcogenides, has drawn significant attention due to a recent report on possible coexistence of two antagonistic phenomena,…

The effect of Ge substitution on the magnetization, heat capacity, magnetocaloric effect and magnetoresistance of GdMn2Si2-xGex (x=0, 1, and 2) compounds has been studied. The magnetic transition associated with the Gd ordering is found to…

High pressure in-situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction experiments were performed on Ag2Te up to 42.6 GPa at room temperature and four phases were identified. Phase I ({\beta}-Ag2Te) transformed into phase II at 2.4 GPa, and phase III and…

Two-dimensional (2D) transition-metal dichalcogenide (TMDs) MoTe2 has attracted much attention due to its predicted Weyl semimetal (WSM) state and a quantum spin Hall insulator in bulk and monolayer form, respectively. We find that the…

We observe an insulator-to-metal (I-M) transition in crystalline silicon doped with sulfur to non- equilibrium concentrations using ion implantation followed by pulsed laser melting and rapid resolidification. This I-M transition is due to…

ZrSe2 is a band semiconductor studied long time ago. It has interesting electronic properties, and because its layers structure can be intercalated with different atoms to change some of the physical properties. In this investigation we…

By density functional theory calculations, we predict a stable two-dimensional (2D) ferromagnetic semiconductor Cr$_2$Ge$_2$Se$_6$, where the Curie temperature $T$$_c$ can be dramatically enhanced beyond room temperature by applying a few…

DyRh4B4 has been known to crystallize in the primitive tetragonal (pt)-structure and to exhibit a ferromagnetic transition at 12 K, the highest magnetic transition temperature in the entire series of the RRh4B4 materials [1]. We show here…

La$_{0.67}$Sr$_{0.33}$Mn$_{1-x}$Ti$_x$O$_{3}$ ($0 \le x \le 0.20$) polycrystalline materials are prepared by employing lower annealing temperature compared to the temperatures reported for the materials of the same composition. The…

The temperature dependence of magnetization and specific heat of the ferromagnetic compound DyFe2Zn20 has been measured in detail in various magnetic fields. We have observed anomalous magnetic behavior, i.e., a strong anisotropy at 2 K,…

The functionality of ferroelectrics is often constrained by their Curie temperature, above which depolarization occurs. Lithium (Li) is the only experimentally known substitute that can increase the Curie temperature in ferroelectric…

Understanding phase transitions between crystalline phases of a material is crucial for both fundamental research and potential applications such as phase-change memory. In this study, we investigate the phase transition between GeSe…
