Energy band structures of metal-deficient hexagonal diborides M$_{0.75}$B$_2$ (M = Nb, Zr and Y) were calculated using the full-potential LMTO method. The metal vacancies change the density of states near the Fermi level and this effect is…
Striped superconductivity with lattice distortions is investigated based on the three-band Hubbard model for high-Tc cuprates. A stable inhomogeneous striped state is determined in the low-temperature tetragonal (LTT) phase with lattice…
We investigate transport and Coulomb drag properties of semiconductor-based electron-hole bilayer systems. Our calculations are motivated by recent experiments in undoped electron-hole bilayer structures based on GaAs-AlGaAs gated double…
We have measured magnetoresistance of hexagonal lateral superlattices. We observe three types of oscillations engendered by periodic potential modulation having hexagonal-lattice symmetry: amplitude modulation of the Shubnikov-de Haas…
Using ultrashort laser pulses, it has become possible to probe the dynamics of long-range order in solids on microscopic timescales. In the conventional description of symmetry-broken phases within time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau theory, the…
We report the successful synthesis of a new 4$d$ based polycrystalline inverse Heusler alloy Fe$_2$RuGe by an arc melting process and have studied in detail its structural, magnetic and transport properties complemented with first principle…
A promising route to tailoring the electronic properties of quantum materials and devices rests on the idea of orbital engineering in multilayered oxide heterostructures. Here we show that the interplay of interlayer charge imbalance and…
Using {\it ab initio} density functional theory we explore the behavior of thin layers of metallic $d^4$ SrFeO$_3$ confined between the $d^0$ dielectric SrTiO$_3$ in a superlattice geometry. We find the presence of insulating SrTiO$_3$…
We report a new \{001\} planar defect found in SiGe nanopillars. The defect structure, determined by atomic resolution electron microscopy, matches the Humble defect model proposed for diamond. We also investigated several possible variants…
Lattice gauge theories (LGTs) are one of the most fundamental subjects in many-body physics, and has recently attracted considerable research interests in quantum simulations. Here we experimentally investigate the emergent $\mathbb{Z}_2$…
We consider the effects of impurities on topological insulators and superconductors. We start by identifying the general conditions under which the eigenenergies of an arbitrary Hamiltonian H belonging to one of the Altland-Zirnbauer…
The metal-insulator transition (MIT) of VO2 is discussed with particular emphasis on the structural instability of the rutile compounds toward dimerization. Ti substitution experiments reveal that the MIT is robust up to 20% Ti…
We discuss the effect of weak bond-disorder in two-leg spin ladders on the dispersion relation of the elementary triplet excitations with a particular focus on the appearance of bound states in the spin gap. Both the cases of modified…
LiGa$_5$O$_8$ in a spinel type structure has recently been claimed to be an unintentional p-type ultra-wide-band-gap oxide semiconductor. While previous computational work did not yet identify the origin of p-type doping and in fact…
Topological lattice defects, such as dislocations and grain boundaries (GBs), are ubiquitously present in the bulk of quantum materials and externally tunable in metamaterials. In terms of robust modes, localized near the defect cores, they…
This paper numerically studies if the stability of a stable black hole is robust against the small perturbation on geometry near its event horizon. As a toy model, it encodes the such perturbation into deformations of Regge-Wheeler…
We present ab initio calculations of electronic and optical properties of perturbed hexagonal germanium and demonstrate that it is a superior material for active optoelectronic devices in the infrared spectral region. It is known that…
Accurate predictions of the properties of transition metal oxides using density functional theory (DFT) calculations are essential for the computational design of energy materials. In this work, we investigate the anomalous reversal of the…
Incommensurate magnetic order in the spin-3/2 antiferromagnet Na$_3$RuO$_4$ is uncovered by neutron diffraction combined with ab initio calculations. The crystal structure of Na$_3$RuO$_4$ contains two triangular motifs on different length…
Centrosymmetric multiband superconductors which break time-reversal symmetry generically have two-dimensional nodes, i.e., Fermi surfaces of Bogoliubov quasiparticles. We show that the coupling of the electrons to the lattice always leads…
