We predict that superconducting particles will show an apparent increase in thickness at low temperatures when measured by electron holography. This will result not from a real thickness increase, rather from an increase in the mean inner…
The nature of superconductivity in heavy-fermion materials is a subject under intense debate, and controlling this many-body state is central for its eventual understanding. Here, we examine how proximity effects may change this phenomenon,…
We report the thermoelectric transport properties in the orbital-ordered Mott insulating phase of Ca$_2$RuO$_4$ close to and far from equilibrium. Near equilibrium conditions where the temperature gradient is only applied to the sample, an…

WTe$_2$ is a material with rich topological properties: it is a 2D topological insulator as a monolayer and a Weyl-semimetal and higher-order topological insulator (HOTI) in the bulk form. Inducing superconductivity in topological materials…
LaOBiPbS$_3$ is a kind of pnictogen-dichalcogenide layered compounds, which have recently been experimentally investigated as thermoelectric materials owing to their low thermal conductivity and high controllability of constituent elements.…
We theoretically show that IV-VI semiconducting compounds with low-temperature rhombohedral crystal structure represent a new potential platform for topological semimetals. By means of minimal $\mathbf{k}\cdot\mathbf{p}$ models we find that…

In recent decades, there has been a persistent pursuit of applications for surface/edge states in topological systems, driven by their dissipationless transport effects. However, there have been limited tangible breakthroughs in this field.…
Increasing demands for renewable sources of energy has been a major driving force for developing efficient thermoelectric materials. Two-dimensional (2D) transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDC) have emerged as promising candidates for…
Transition metal oxides are promising candidates for thermoelectric applications, because they are stable at high temperature and because strong electronic correlations can generate large Seebeck coefficients, but their thermoelectric power…
Enhancing band convergence is an effective way to optimize the thermoelectric (TE) properties of materials. However, the temperature-induced band renormalization is commonly ignored. By employing the recently-developed electron-phonon…
Recent evidence for a charge-Kondo effect in superconducting samples of Pb$_{1-x}$Tl$_x$Te [1] has brought renewed attention to the possibility of negative U superconductivity in this material, associated with valence fluctuations on the Tl…

Thermal boundary conductance (TBC) at dissimilar interfaces imposes a fundamental limit on electronic device performance, yet predicting and understanding heat transport across realistic, disordered boundaries remains elusive. Here, we…

Through a comprehensive free energy analysis, we demonstrate that finite temperature can simultaneously weaken superconductivity and mitigate spin polarization induced depairing, leading to potential non-monotonic temperature-dependent…
The symmetry breaking induced by the ferroelectric transition often triggers the emergence of topological electronic states such as Weyl fermions in ferroelectric-like metals/semimetals. Such strong coupling between the lattice deformation…
