While defects such as oxygen vacancies in correlated materials can modify their electronic properties dramatically, understanding the microscopic origin of electronic correlations in materials with defects has been elusive. Lanthanum…

At interfaces between oxide materials, lattice and electronic reconstructions always play important roles in exotic phenomena. In this study, the density functional theory and maximally localized Wannier functions are employed to…

Heterostructure engineering provides an efficient way to obtain several unconventional phases of LaNiO3, which is otherwise paramagnetic, metallic in bulk form. In this work, a new class of short periodic superlattices, consisting of LaNiO3…

The mechanism responsible for the extraordinary interface conductivity of LaAlO$_{3}$ on SrTiO$_{3}$ and its insulator-metal transition remains controversial. Here, using density functional theory calculations, we establish a comprehensive…

The discovery of high-$T_c$ superconductivity (SC) in La$_3$Ni$_2$O$_7$ (LNO) has aroused a great deal of interests. Previously, it was proposed that the Ni-$3d_{z^2}$ orbital is crucial to realize the high-$T_c$ SC in LNO: The preformed…

When interacting electrons are confined to low-dimensions, the electron-electron correlation effect is enhanced dramatically, which often drives the system into exhibiting behaviors that are otherwise highly improbable. Superconductivity…

We investigate the electronic reconstruction in (LaNiO$_{3}$)$_n$/(LaAlO$_{3}$)$_3$ (n=3, 5 and 10) superlattices due to the quantum confinement (QC) by d.c. transport and resonant soft x-ray absorption spectroscopy. In proximity to the QC…

Ultra-thin tri-color (tri-layer) titanate superlattices ([3u.c. LaTiO3/2u.c. SrTiO3/3u.c. YTiO3], u.c. = unit cells) were grown in a layer-by-layer way on single crystal TbScO3 (110) substrates by pulsed laser deposition. High sample…

Topotactic reduction utilizing metal hydrides as reagents emerges as an effective approach to achieve exceptionally low oxidization states of metal ions and unconventional coordination networks. This method opens avenues to the development…

We investigate the ground state properties of a non-locally coupled bosonic system in a bilayer optical superlattice by considering bosons in one layer to be of softcore in nature and separately allowing two and three body hardcore…

The novel nickelate superconductors of infinite-layer type feature challenging electronic pecularities in the normal-state phase diagram with doping. Distinct many-body behavior and different dispersion regimes of the entangled…

Superconducting nickelates appear to be difficult to synthesize. Since the chemical reduction of ABO3 (A: rare earth; B transition metal) with CaH2 may result in both, ABO2 and ABO2H, we calculate the topotactic H binding energy by density…

Dimensionality and electronic correlations are crucial elements of many quantum material properties. An example is the change of the electronic structure accompanied by the loss of quasiparticles when a metal is reduced from three…

The electronic symmetry of the SrTiO3/LaAlO3 interface was investigated by optical second harmonic generation, using superlattices with varying periodicity to study the evolution of the electronic reconstruction while avoiding substrate…

Recently, the observation of superconductivity (SC) with $T_c$ $\approx$ 3.6 K in the pressurized 1313 La$_3$Ni$_2$O$_7$ has attracted considerable interest. Here, we systematically investigate the electronic properties and superconducting…

We report the occurrence of superconductivity, with maximum Tc = 40 K, in superlattices (SLs) based on two insulating oxides, namely CaCuO2 and SrTiO3. In these (CaCuO2)n/(SrTiO3)m SLs, the CuO2 planes belong only to CaCuO2 block, which is…

We calculate density-density correlations of an expanding gas of strongly attractive ultra-cold spin-1/2 fermions in an optical lattice. The phase diagram of the tightly bound fermion pairs exhibits a Bose-Einstein condensed state and a…

Motivated by the recent discovery of superconductivity in the pentalayer nickelate Nd$_6$Ni$_5$O$_{12}$ [Nature Materials 10.1038], we calculate its electronic structure and superconducting critical temperature. We find that electronic…

We propose that one of the best grounds for the materials design from the viewpoint of {\it electron correlation} such as ferromagnetism, superconductivity is the atomically controlled nanostructures and heterointerfaces, as theoretically…

Motivated by the recently reported signatures of superconductivity in trilayer La$_4$Ni$_3$O$_{10}$ under pressure, we comprehensively study this system using {\it ab initio} and random-phase approximation techniques. Without electronic…
