Gadolinium has long been believed to undergo a high pressure phase transition with a volume collapse around 5%. Theoretical explanations have focused on the idea of electrons transferring from the extended s-orbital to the compact…

In previous studies the pressure dependence of the magnetic ordering temperature $T_{\text{o}}$ of Dy was found to exhibit a sharp increase above its volume collapse pressure of 73 GPa, appearing to reach temperatures well above ambient at…

We have performed pressure dependent X-ray diffraction and resonant X-ray emission spectroscopy experiments on USb$_2$ to further characterize the AFM-FM transition occurring near 8 GPa. We have found the magnetic transition coincides with…

We investigate the Yb valence instabilities in the strongly correlated YbPd compound using resonant X-ray emission spectroscopy as a function of pressure across the charge-order (CO) transition. At a low temperature (T = 30 K) in the CO…

Negative thermal expansion is an unusual phenomenon appearing in only a handful of materials, but pursuit and mastery of the phenomenon holds great promise for applications across disciplines and industries. Here we report use of X-ray…

In correlated electronic systems, strong interactions and the interplay between different degrees of freedom may give rise to anomalous charge transport properties, which can be tuned by external parameters like temperature and magnetic…

We describe current experimental and theoretical understanding of the pressure-induced volume collapse transitions occurring in the early trivalent rare earth metals. General features of orbitally realistic mean-field based theories used to…

The pressure-temperature phase diagram of an intermediate-valence compound YbPd was revealed via simultaneous ac-calorimetry and electrical resistivity measurements. Two successive structural phase transition temperatures, $T_1$ = 125 K and…

We report a detail theoretical study of the electronic structure and phase stability of transition metal oxides MnO, FeO, CoO, and NiO in their paramagnetic cubic B1 structure by employing dynamical mean-field theory of correlated electrons…

We present the electrical resistivity data under application of pressures up to $\sim$ 26 GPa and down to 50 mK temperatures on YbFe$_2$Zn$_{20}$. We find a pressure induced magnetic phase transition with an onset at $p_c$=18.2$\pm$0.8 GPa.…

The electronic structures of four Laves phase iron compounds (e.g. YFe$_2$, ZrFe$_2$, LuFe$_2$ and HfFe$_2$) have been calculated by the state-of-the-art full potential electronic structure code. The magnetic moments collapse under…

The rare earth metal praseodymium (Pr) transforms from the d-fcc crystal structure (Pr-III) to {$\alpha$}-U one (Pr-IV) at 20 GPa with a large volume collapse (${\rm\Delta} V/V$ = 0.16), which is associated with the valence change of the Pr…

Using the satellite structure of the $L_{\gamma1}$ line in non-resonant x-ray emission spectra, we probe the high-pressure evolution of the bare 4f signature of the early light lanthanides at ambient temperature. For Ce and Pr the satellite…

We report a new tetragonal ground-state for perovskite-structured PbCrO3 from DFT+U calculations, and explain its anomalously large volume. The new structure is stabilized due to orbital ordering of Cr-d in the presence of a large…

Pb$_2$CoOsO$_6$ is a newly synthesized polar metal in which inversion symmetry is broken by the magnetic frustration in an antiferromagnetic ordering of Co and Os sublattices. The coupled magnetic and structural transition occurs at 45 K at…

We report first principles numerical discovery of hydrostatic pressure driven tetragonal to collapsed tetragonal transition in 1111-type material ThMnAsN accompanied by simultaneous magneto-structural, insulator to metal transition together…

We report the influence of external pressure (P= up to 8 GPa) on the temperature dependence of electrical resistivity of a Yb-based Kondo lattice, YbPd2Si2, which does not undergo magnetic ordering under ambient pressure condition. There…

We report a comprehensive structural and valence study of the intermediate valent materials YbNiGa$_{4}$ and YbNiIn$_{4}$ under pressures up to 60 GPa. YbNiGa$_{4}$ undergoes a smooth volume contraction and shows steady increase in…

We study two different metal-insulating transitions possibly occurring in one-dimensional Kondo lattices. First, we show how doping the pure Kondo lattice model in the strong-coupling limit, results in a Pokrovsky-Talapov transition. This…

Using TDPAD experiment and local spin density calculations, we have observed large 4d moments on isolated Mo atoms at substitutional and octahedral interstitial lattice sites in Yb metal, showing Curie-Weiss local susceptibility and…
