Charge density wave (CDW) order is an emergent quantum phase that is characterized by a periodic lattice distortion and charge density modulation, often present near superconducting transitions. Here we uncover a novel inverted CDW state by…

We study metallic behavior and superconductivity in C$_{60}$ materials in terms of a tight binding model characterized by an intramolecular, nonretarded attraction. It was shown previously that, at intermediate coupling, the model possesees…

Crystal structures of $\textrm{CLi}_4$ compounds are explored through \emph{ab} \emph{initio} evolutionary methodology. Phase transition from metal to semimetal and semiconductor, and eventually to insulator with increasing pressure are…

We measured the electrical resistivity from 2K up to 900K on high quality single crystals of Lu5Ir4Si10. A clear thermal hysteresis was found at the onset of the Charge Density Wave (CDW), evidencing the first order nature of the…

Upon excitation with an intense ultrafast laser pulse, a symmetry-broken ground state can undergo a non-equilibrium phase transition through pathways dissimilar from those in thermal equilibrium. Determining the mechanism underlying these…

The first-order transition at $T_{\rm 0} = 270$ K for the platinum-based SrPt$_2$Sb$_2$ superconductor was investigated using X-ray diffraction and magnetic susceptibility measurements. When polycrystalline SrPt$_2$Sb$_2$ was cooled down…

The so-called stripe phase of the manganites is an important example of the complex behaviour of metal oxides, and has long been interpreted as the localisation of charge at atomic sites. Here, we demonstrate via resistance measurements on…

We report an infrared study on 1$T$-TiSe$_2$, the parent compound of the newly discovered superconductor Cu$_x$TiSe$_2$. Previous studies of this compound have not conclusively resolved whether it is a semimetal or a semiconductor:…

We present an \textit{ab initio} investigation of the long-range charge density wave (CDW) order and superconducting properties of the pristine and lithiated NbSe$_2$ monolayer. Stable CDW structures are obtained through atomic…

Charge density waves are emergent quantum states that spontaneously reduce crystal symmetry, drive metal-insulator transitions, and precede superconductivity. In low-dimensions, distinct quantum states arise, however, thermal fluctuations…

CuTe is a two-dimensional (2D) layered material, yet forming a quasi-one-dimensional (quasi-1D) charge-density-wave (CDW) along the a-axis in the ab-plane at high transition temperature $T_{CDW}=335$ K. However, the anisotropic properties…

1$T$-TaSe$_2$ is widely believed to host a Mott metal-insulator transition in the charge density wave (CDW) phase according to the spectroscopic observation of a band gap that extends across all momentum space. Previous investigations…

Even though the rare-earth tritellurides are tetragonal materials with a quasi two dimensional (2D) band structure, they have a "hidden" 1D character. The resultant near-perfect nesting of the Fermi surface leads to the formation of a…

We study the coupling of light and the structural order parameter in the charge density wave (CDW) state of the layered transition-metal dichalcogenide, Tantalum Disulfide ($1T-\mathrm{TaS_2}$). Using time-dependent density functional…

The metal-insulator transition (MIT) observed in two-dimensional (2D) systems is apparently contradictory to the well known scaling theory of localization. By investigating the conductance of disordered one-dimensional systems with a finite…

The results of low temperature thermoelectric power and the specific heat of 1T-VSe2 (Vanadium diselenide) have been reported along with the electrical resistivity, and Hall coefficient of the compound. The Charge Density Wave (CDW)…

A two-dimensional gas of non-interacting quasiparticles in a nearly periodic potential is considered at zero temperature. The potential is a superposition of a periodic potential, induced by the charge density wave of a Wigner crystal, and…

Upon increasing the electron density in a quantum wire, the one-dimensional electron system undergoes a transition to a quasi-one-dimensional state. In the absence of interactions between electrons, this corresponds to filling up the second…

We studied TbTe$_{3}$ using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) in the temperature range of 298 - 355 K. As seen in previous STM measurements on RTe$_{3}$ compounds, our measurements detect a unidirectional charge density wave state (CDW)…

Non-local quasiparticles in correlated quantum materials can exhibit the proximity effect. For instance, in metal superconductor hybrid systems, the leaking of cooper pairs to the metallic region induces superconducting correlations in a…
