The rise and fall of the superconducting transition temperature $T_c$ upon tuning carrier density or external parameters, such as pressure or magnetic field, is ubiquitously observed in a wide range of quantum materials. In order to…

In Cerium-based heavy electron materials, the 4f electron's magnetic moments bind to the itinerant quasiparticles to form composite heavy quasiparticles at low temperature. The volume of the Fermi surfacein the Brillouin zone incorporates…

We consider possible high temperature superconductivity (high-T$_c$) in transition metal compounds with a cubic zinc-blende lattice structure. When the electron filling configuration in the d-shell is close to d$^7$, all three t$_{2g}$…

Electrons in solids have been conventionally classified as either band-like itinerant ones or atomic-like localized ones depending on their properties. For heavy Fermion (HF) compounds, however, the f electrons show both itinerant and…

The systematic identification of temperature scales in supercooled liquids that are key to understanding those liquids' underlying glass properties, and the latter's formation-history dependence, is a challenging task. Here we study the…

While electrical compatibility constraints normally prevent head-to-head (HH) and tail-to-tail (TT) domain walls from forming in ferroelectric materials, we propose that such domain walls could be stabilized by intentional growth of atomic…

We describe the enhanced magnetic transition temperatures $T_c$ of two-component fermions in three-dimensional layered Lieb lattices, which are created in cold atom experiments. We determine the phase diagram at half-filling using the…

Recent advances in scanning tunneling spectroscopy performed on heavy-fermion metals provide a window onto local electronic properties of composite heavy-electron quasiparticles. Here we theoretically investigate the energy and temperature…

Magnetic phase transitions have been explored in a superlattice formed by stacking monolayers of $\rm LaTiO_{3}$ and $\rm LaVO_{3}$ alternately, using ab-initio density functional theory (DFT) and Monte-Carlo (MC) simulations. DFT derived…

Novel electronic phenomena frequently form in heavy fermions as a consequence of the mutual nature of localization and itineracy of f electrons. On the magnetically ordered side of the heavy fermion phase diagram, f moments are expected to…

High temperature superconductivity is a property of doped antiferromagnetic insulators. The electronic structure is inhomogeneous on short length and time scales, and, as the temperature decreases, it evolves via two crossovers, before long…

We study theoretically the effect of the effective dimensionality of the phonon gas distribution on the heat exchange between electrons and phonons in layered nanostructures. If we denote the electrons temperature by $T_e$ and the phonons…

The one-dimensional electron gas exhibits spin-charge separation and power-law spectral responses to many experimentally relevant probes. Ordering in a quasi one-dimensional system is necessarily associated with a dimensional crossover, at…

The exploration of electrides holds great promise for advancing both fundamental physics and chemistry, owing to their unique characteristics arising from loosely bound interstitial anionic electrons. Here we report a class of cross-chain…

Ferroelastic domain walls (DWs) underpin key functionalities in complex oxides. In free-standing ferroic thin films, where elastic interactions are highly thickness dependent, understanding DW behaviour across length scales and external…

We develop a finite temperature mean field theory in the path integral picture for an extremely dilute system of interacting Fermions in a plane. In the limit of short ranged interactions, the system is shown to undergo a phase transition…

It is shown that a ferroelastic lattice distortion is associated with the superconducting transition both in low- and high-temperature superconductors. A low-temperature ferroelastic transition in crystalline solids produces also a maximum…

We present a phenomenological model of periodic ferroelectric-superconductor (FE-S) heterostructures containing two alternating ferroelectric and superconducting layers. The interaction at the FE-S contacts is described as a coupling of the…

It is demonstrated that the transition temperature (Tc) of high-Tc superconductors is determined by their layered crystal structure, bond lengths, valency properties of the ions, and Coulomb coupling between electronic bands in adjacent,…

For an electron gas with a $ \delta $-function attraction we investigate the crossover from weak-coupling to strong-coupling superconductivity as well as normal state near the temperature $T^*$, at which the strong coupling produces a…
