Over the last few years, Sr$_2$IrO$_4$, a single-layer member of the Ruddlesden-Popper series iridates, has received much attention as a close analog of cuprate high-temperature superconductors. Although there is not yet firm evidence for…
By measuring the in-plane resistivity as a function of temperature and magnetic field in overdoped La2-xSrxCuO4 (LSCO) superconductors, in a recent Letter Rourke et al. [Nature Physics 7, 455 (2011)] have addressed the long standing but…
To date, there has been no evidence for the macroscopic structural phase transition to the low temperature tetragonal structure (LTT) with a space group P42/ncm in high-TC cuprate of rare earth-free La2-xSrxCuO4 (LSCO). By investigating…
A key unexplained feature of cuprate superconductors is the upturn in their normal state electrical resistivity $\rho(T)$ seen at low temperature inside the pseudogap phase. We examined this issue via measurements of the thermal…
Structure and magnetic properties of the compounds $Zn_{1-x}Cu_xCr_2O_4$ (ZCCO) are investigated systematically. A structural phase transition from space-group symmetry $Fd3m$ to $I4_1/amd$ is observed in ZCCO. The critical value of the…
By using new and previous measurements of the $ab$-plane conductivity $\sigma_1^{ab} (\omega,T)$ of La$_{2-x}$Sr$_x$CuO$_{4}$ (LSCO) it is shown that the spectral weight $W = \int_0^\Omega {\sigma_1^{ab} (\omega,T) d\omega}$ obeys the same…
Rare-earth oxides (REOs) are an important class of materials owing to their unique properties, including high ionic conductivities, large dielectric constants, and elevated melting temperatures, making them relevant to several technological…
The study of magnetism in transition metals is a cornerstone in understanding complex electronic and magnetic interactions in condensed matter systems. Among transition metal elements, body-centered cubic (bcc) chromium stands out because…
The cuprate material BSCCO-2212 is believed to be doped by a combination of cation switching and excess oxygen. The interstitial oxygen dopants are of particular interest because scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) experiments have shown…
The strongly constrained and appropriately normed (SCAN) meta-generalized gradient approximation (meta-GGA) functional is a milestone achievement of electronic structure theory. Recently, a revised and restored form (r$^2$SCAN) has been…
The structural properties and the band structures of the charge-transfer insulating oxides SrO, MgO and SrTiO3 are computed both within density functional theory in the local density approximation (LDA) and in the Hedin's GW scheme for…
Magnetic measurements on heavily overdoped $La_{2-x}Sr_xCuO_4$, $Tl_2Ba_2CuO_6$, $Bi_2Sr_2CuO_6$ and $Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_8$ single crystals reveal a new type magnetization hysteresis loops characterized by the vanishing of usual central peak…
Several recent experiments have revealed that the charge density $\rho$ in a given compound (mostly underdoped) is intrinsic inhomogeneous with large nanoscale spatial variations. Therefore it is appropriate to define a local charge density…
We present triple-axis neutron scattering studies of low-energy magnetic fluctuations in strongly underdoped La$_{2-x}$Sr$_{x}$CuO$_{4}$ with $x=0.05$, $0.06$ and $0.07$, providing quantitative evidence for a direct competition between…
The problem of importance of strong correlations for the electronic structure, transport and magnetic properties of half--metallic ferromagnetic CrO_2 is addressed by performing density functional electronic structure calculations in the…
We test Laplacian-level meta-generalized gradient approximation (meta-GGA) non-interacting kinetic energy functionals based on the fourth-order gradient expansion (GE4). We consider several well known Laplacian-level meta-GGAs from…
Static spin-stripe order and superconductivity were systematically studied in La_2-xBa_xCuO_4 (0.11 - 0.17) at ambient pressure by means of magnetization and muSR experiments. We find that all the investigated La_2-xBa_xCuO_4 samples…
We report the analysis of the magnetic fluctuations in the superconducing La_{2-x}Sr_xCuO_4 and the related lanthanum cuprates having the different symmetry of the low temperature structure. The NMR and ESR investigations revealed the…
The strong correlation effect in cuprate superconductors have greatly enriched the phase diagram showing the co-existence of superconductivity with many intertwined orders. One of the prominent issues concerning the superconductivity…
In this paper we report the comparative study of superconductivity by 3d (Co), 4d (Rh), 5d (Ir) element doping in SmFeAsO. X-ray diffraction patterns indicate that the material has formed the ZrCuSiAs-type structure with a space group…
