An eutectic AlCl$_3$/KCl molten salt method in a horizontal configuration was employed to grow millimeter-sized and composition homogeneous CuFeSe$_2$ single crystals due to the continuous growth process in a temperature gradient induced…

Mm-sized LiMn$_{1-x}$Fe$_x$PO$_4$ single crystals with $0\leq x \leq 1$ were grown by means of the traveling floating-zone technique at elevated Argon pressure of 30~bar. For the various doping levels, the growth process was optimized with…

UCoGe is reported as a weak ferromagnetic (FM) two-band superconductor (SC) with the critical temperature, $T_{\mathrm{SC}}\sim$ 0.7 K and the Curie temperature, $T_{\mathrm{C}}\sim$ 3 K at ambient pressure. We report exotic attributes of…

The discovery in 2000 that the ferromagnetic (FM) compound UGe2 (T_Curie = 52 K at ambient pressure) becomes superconducting under a pressure of P = 1.1 GPa until it enters the paramagnetic (PM) phase above Pc = 1.6 GPa was a surprise.…

We report on theoretical studies on ferromagnetic superconductors, URhGe, and UCoGe and identifies the pairing state as a non-unitary spin-triplet one, analogous to superfluid $^3$He-A phase. A recently found superconductor UTe$_2$ with…
