Pressure-induced magnetic quantum phase transition of CeRhIn$_5$ is described from first principles based on a realistic Kondo lattice model. Simulations of CeRhIn$_5$ above ambient pressure up to P=5 [GPa] show that it is driven from an…
New phases of matter emerge at the edge of magnetic instabilities. In local moment systems, such as heavy fermions, the magnetism can be destabilized by pressure, chemical doping, and, rarely, by magnetic field, towards a zero-temperature…
The results of magnetic susceptibility, electrical resistivity (rho), and heat capacity measurements as a function of temperature are reported for the alloys, Ce2Rh(1-x)Co(x)Si3, crystallizing in an AlB2-derived hexagonal strcture. Ce2RhSi3…
Generally, studies of the critical current Ic are necessary if superconductors are to be of practical use because Ic sets the current limit below which there is a zero-resistance state. Here, we report a peak in the pressure dependence of…
The presence of a quantum critical point separating two distinct zero-temperature phases is thought to underlie the `strange' metal state of many high-temperature superconductors. The nature of this quantum critical point, as well as a…
Physicists are engaged in vigorous debate on the nature of the quantum critical points (QCP) governing the low-temperature properties of heavy-fermion (HF) metals. Recent experimental observations of the much-studied compound YbRh2Si2 in…
Transport measurements in the hole-doped cuprates show a "strange metal" normal state with an electrical resistance which varies linearly with temperature. This strange metal phase is often identified with the quantum critical region of a…
We demonstrate a magnetic quantum critical point embedded within the superconducting state of Zn-doped CeCoIn$_5$, revealed by a pronounced peak in the magnetic penetration depth at zero temperature $\lambda(0)$. Using scanning SQUID…
Considerable evidence exists for the failure of the traditional theory of quantum critical points (QCPs), pointing to the need to incorporate novel excitations. The destruction of Kondo entanglement and the concomitant critical Kondo effect…
In several unconventional superconductors, the highest superconducting transition temperature $T_{c}$ is found in a region of the phase diagram where the antiferromagnetic transition temperature extrapolates to zero, signaling a putative…
We report on the pressure-induced unconventional superconductivity in the heavy-fermion antiferromagnet CeIn3 by means of nuclear-quadrupole-resonance (NQR) studies conducted under a high pressure. The temperature and pressure dependences…
We solve the 3D periodic Anderson model via two impurity DMFT. We obtain the temperature v.s. hybridization phase diagram. In approaching the quantum critical point (QCP) both the Neel and lattice Kondo temperatures decrease and they do not…
The heavy-fermion compound CeRhIn$_5$ can be tuned through a quantum critical point, when In is partially replaced by Sn. This way additional charge carriers are introduced and the antiferromagnetic order is gradually suppressed to zero…
We present the results of out-of-plane electrical transport measurements on the heavy fermion superconductor CeCoIn$_{5}$ at temperatures from 40 mK to 400 K and in magnetic field up to 9 T. For $T <$ 10 K transport measurements show that…
The recent discovery of a non-magnetic nematic quantum critical point (QCP) in the iron chalcogenide family FeSe$_{1-x}$S$_{x}$ has raised the prospect of investigating, in isolation, the role of nematicity on the electronic properties of…
Heavy fermions have served as prototype examples of strongly-correlated electron systems. The occurrence of unconventional superconductivity in close proximity to the electronic instabilities associated with various degrees of freedom…
The nature of quantum criticality in CeCoIn$_5$ is studied by low-temperature thermal expansion $\alpha(T)$. At the field-induced quantum critical point at H=5 T a crossover scale $T^\star\approx 0.3$ K is observed, separating…
Quantum critical points (QCPs), zero-temperature phase transitions, are windows to fundamental quantum-mechanical phenomena associated with universal behaviour and can provide parallels to the physics of black holes. Magnetic QCPs have been…
The behavior of matter near a quantum critical point (QCP) is one of the most exciting and challenging areas of physics research. Emergent phenomena such as high-temperature superconductivity are linked to the proximity to a QCP. Although…
Magnetic fluctuations and electrons couple in intriguing ways in the vicinity of zero temperature phase transitions - quantum critical points - in conducting materials. Quantum criticality is implicated in non-Fermi liquid behavior of…
