We provide optical reflectivity data collected over a broad spectral range and as a function of temperature on the ErTe$_3$ and HoTe$_3$ materials, which undergo two consecutive charge-density-wave (CDW) phase transitions at $T_{CDW1}$= 265…
After theoretical determination of the internal structural coordinates in Li$_2$Pd$_3$B, we calculate and analyze its electronic structure and obtain the frequencies of the two $A_g$ phonons (40.6 meV for nearly pure Li mode, 13.0 meV for…
The quest to govern the driving forces behind superconductivity and gain control over the superconducting transition temperature $T_{c}$ is as old as the phenomenon itself. Microscopically, this requires a proper understanding of the…
We present a detailed study of the lattice dynamics and electron-phonon coupling for a (3,3) carbon nanotube which belongs to the class of small diameter based nanotubes which have recently been claimed to be superconducting. We treat the…
Motivated by the recent experimental evidence of commensurate surface charge density waves (CDW) in Pb/Ge(111) and Sn/Ge(111) sqrt{3}-adlayer structures, as well as by the insulating states found on K/Si(111):B and SiC(0001), we have…
Charge density waves (CDWs) with superconductivity, competing Fermi surface instabilities and collective orders, have captured much interest in two-dimensional van der Waals (vdW) materials. Understanding of CDW suppression mechanism, its…
The coupling between lattice and charge degrees of freedom in condensed matter materials is ubiquitous and can often result in interesting properties and ordered phases, including conventional superconductivity, charge density wave order,…
We present a dynamical mean-field study of the nonperturbative electronic mechanisms, which may lead to significant enhancements of the electron-phonon coupling in correlated electron systems. Analyzing the effects of electronic…
Monolayer films of FeSe grown on SrTiO$_3$ substrates are electron doped relative to bulk and exhibit a significantly higher superconducting transition temperatures. We present density functional calculations and a modified Schottky model…
Understanding the origin of phase transitions and the interactions between distinct phases remains a central task in condensed matter physics. Charge density wave (CDW) systems provide an ideal platform for investigating these phenomena.…
We report on sliding Charge Density Wave (CDW) in the quasi two-dimensional TbTe$_3$ system probed by coherent x-ray diffraction combined with {\it in-situ} transport measurements. We show that the non-Ohmic conductivity in TbTe$_3$ is made…
IV-VI materials are some of the most efficient bulk thermoelectric materials due to their proximity to soft-mode phase transitions, which leads to low lattice thermal conductivity. It has been shown that the lattice thermal conductivity of…
$1T$-TiSe$_2$ is believed to posses a soft electronic mode, i.e., plasmon or exciton, that might be responsible for the exciton condensation and charge-density-wave (CDW) transition. Here, we explore collective electronic excitations in…
A strong electron-phonon interaction arises from the modulation of the superexchange interaction by lattice vibrations. It is responsible for the softening of the half-breathing modes around (pm pi/a,0) and (0, pm pi/a) in the…
Fermi surface fluctuations and lattice instabilities in the 2D metallic kagome superconductor CsV$_3$Sb$_5$ are elucidated via polarization-resolved Raman spectroscopy. The presence of a weak electronic continuum in high-quality samples…
Interactions with electronic excitations can soften and/or broaden phonons. They are greatly amplified at wavevectors Q+- that connect parallel (nested) sheets of the Fermi surface. In such a case, called a Kohn anomaly, the phonon…
Time-resolved elastic neutron scattering combined with rapid laser heating was used to probe the charge density wave (CDW) state in 1T-TiSe$_2$, capturing both the melting and reformation of the CDW on long timescales and providing clues on…
A theory for spin and lattice couplings to the electronic states in high-T$_C$ oxides is presented, with HgBa$_2$CuO$_4$ as an example. A simple analytical model suggests that the barrel band is sensitive to potential perturbations with…
In most of charge density wave (CDW) systems of different material classes, ranging from traditional correlated systems in low-dimension to recent topological systems with Kagome lattice, superconductivity emerges when the system is driven…
Ultrafast optical excitation in charge-density wave (CDW) crystals can transiently suppress long-range order, driving the lattice toward higher symmetry on femtosecond timescales. Here, we formulate and implement a first-principles theory…
