Studies of the doping process can provide a better understanding of the superconducting mechanisms in cuprous oxide materials. In this work, we studied the doping effects on the crystal structure, electric, morphologic and magnetic…
While both the hole and electron doped cuprates can exhibit $d_{x^2-y^2}$-wave superconductivity, the local distribution of the doped carriers is known to be significantly different with the doped holes going primarily on the O sites while…
Doping is the most common strategy employed in the development of new and improved materials. However, predicting the effects of doping on the atomic-scale structure of a material is often difficult or limited to high-end experimental…
Hole carrier doping has been tried to pseudo-low-dimensional material La2RuO5 by substituting La3+ with Cd2+. Single phased samples of La2-xCdxRuO5 with x up to 0.5 have been successfully obtained and also high pressure O2 annealing has…
Historically, the discovery and optimization of doped bulk materials has been predominantly developed through an Edisonian approach. While successful and despite the constant progress in fundamental understanding of detector materials…
Ab-initio spin-polarized Density Functional Theory plus U is used to study the electronic and magnetic properties of tetragonal doped barium titanate (Ba$_{1-x}$Eu$_x$O$_3$) system for different europium (Eu$^{3+}$) concentrations. For this…
Cerium (Ce)-based heavy-fermion materials have a characteristic double-peak structure (mid-IR peak) in the optical conductivity [$\sigma(\omega)$] spectra originating from the strong conduction ($c$)--$f$ electron hybridization. To clarify…
We report a strategy to induce superconductivity in the BiS$_2$-based compound LaOBiS$_2$. Instead of substituting F for O, we increase the charge-carrier density (electron dope) via substitution of tetravalent Th$^{+4}$, Hf$^{+4}$,…
A recent angle resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (ARPES) study by Douglas et al. \cite {dessau-comment} on oxygen isotope exchanged Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O$_{8+\delta}$ superconductors reported an absence of isotope effect at optimal doping,…
We have evaluated the performance of a Ce-doped fused-silica fiber as wavelength shifter coupled to a CeF$_{3}$ crystal using electron beams at CERN. The pulse shape and collection efficiency were measured using irradiated (100 kGy) and…
Single crystals of Fe(1+x)Te(1-y)Se(y) have been grown with a controlled Fe excess and Se doping, and the crystal structure has been refined for various compositions. The systematic investigation of magnetic and superconducting properties…
The resistivity tensor correlations $\rho_{xy}$($B$)$\sim$ $[\rho_{xx}(B)]^\beta$ for the mixed state magnetic field dependencies of the resistivity tensor of electron-doped Nd$_{2-x}$Ce$_x$CuO$_{4+\delta}$/SrTiO$_3$ single crystal films…
We report the structural, superconducting, magnetic and granular properties of Y1-xCaxBa2Cu3O7; x = 0.0, 0.1, 0.2 and 0.3. Rietveld fitted X-ray diffraction data confirms the single phase formation for all the samples. The orthorhombicity…
In heavy fermion materials superconductivity tends to appear when long range magnetic order is suppressed by chemical doping or applying pressure. Here we report heat capacity measurements on diluted alloyes of the heavy fermion…
We measured the temperature dependence of the in-plane polarized reflectivity spectra of twin-free Y$_{1-x}$Ca$_{x}$Ba$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$O$_{7-{\delta}}$ single crystals with different Ca-concentrations (x=0,0.11 and 0.16) from optimally doped…
A self-doping effect between outer and inner CuO$_2$ planes (OPs and IPs) in multi-layer cuprate superconductors is studied. When one considers a three-layer tight-binding model of the Hg-based three-layer cuprate derived from the first…
An investigation of La and Ca doped Sr4Ru3O10, featuring a coexistence of interlayer ferromagnetism and intralayer metamagnetism, is presented. La doping readily changes magnetism between ferromagnetism and metamagnetism by tuning the…
We report a study of the Ce doping effect on the thermal conductivity (\kappa) of Nd_{2-x}Ce_{x}CuO_{4} (NCCO) at low temperatures down to 0.3 K and in magnetic fields up to 14 T. It is found that with Ce doping, the electronic thermal…
Combining the complementary capabilities of two of the most powerful modern computational methods, we find superconductivity in both the electron- and hole-doped regimes of the two-dimensional Hubbard model (with next nearest neighbor…
Detailed doping dependence of the electronic specific heat coefficient gamma is studied for La2-xSrxCuO4 (LSCO) single crystals in the slightly-doped regime. We find that gamma systematically increases with doping, and furthermore, even for…
