Magnetic semiconductors may soon improve the energy efficiency of computers, but materials exhibiting these dual properties remain underexplored. Here, we report the computational prediction and realization of a new magnetic and…
Narrow and brilliant spectral lines are essential assets for high-resolution spectroscopy as well as for precision sensing and optomechanics. In semiconductor structures and, in particular, in the well-established (Al,Ga)As material system,…
The recent discovery of superconductivity in pressure-stabilized bulk La3Ni2O7-delta, with a critical temperature (Tc) exceeding 77 K, has opened a new frontier in high-temperature superconductivity research beyond cuprates. Yet, the…
Point-contact Andreev reflection spectroscopy at low temperatures and high magnetic fields has been performed on a noncentrosymmetric La$_3$Se$_4$ superconductor with a critical temperature $T_c$ = 8 K. Two superconducting energy gaps…
We use femtosecond spectroscopy to investigate the quasiparticle relaxation and low-energy electronic structure in a near-optimally doped pnictide superconductor with T_c=49.5 K. Multiple relaxation processes are evident, with distinct…
Recently, robust $d$-wave superconductive (SC) order has been unveiled in the ground state of the 2D $t$-$t'$-$J$ model -- with both nearest-neighbor ($t$) and next-nearest-neighbor ($t'$) hoppings -- by density matrix renormalization group…
Superconductivity-induced changes in the electronic Raman scattering response were observed for the RNi$_2$B$_2$C (R = Y, Lu) system in different scattering geometries. In the superconducting state, 2$\Delta$-like peaks were observed in…
The controlled growth of nanowires (NWs) with dimensions comparable to the Fermi wavelengths of the charge carriers allows fundamental investigations of quantum confinement phenomena. Here, we present studies of proximity-induced…
Pressure can tune material's electronic properties and control its quantum state, making some systems present disconnected superconducting region as observed in iron chalcogenides and heavy fermion CeCu2Si2. For CaC6 superconductor (Tc of…
The topic of superconductivity in strongly disordered materials has attracted a significant attention. In particular vivid debates are related to the subject of intrinsic spatial inhomogeneity responsible for non-BCS relation between the…
A superconducting state is characterized by the gap in the electronic density of states which vanishes at the superconducting transition temperature Tc. It was discovered that in high temperature superconductors a noticeable depression in…
Intermetallic compounds with sizable band gaps are attractive for their unusual properties but rare. Here, we present a new family of stable semiconducting quaternary Heusler compounds, designed and discovered by means of high-throughput…
Seven distinct families of superconductors with critical temperatures at ambient pressure that equal or surpass the historic 23 K limit for Nb3Ge have been discovered in the last 25 years. Each family is reviewed briefly and their common…
Quasi-one-dimensional electron systems display intrinsic instability towards long-range ordered phases at sufficiently low temperatures. The superconducting orders are of particular interest as they can possess either singlet or triplet…
A complex structure of the superconducting order parameter in $Ln_2$C$_3$ ($Ln$ = La, Y) is demonstrated by muon spin relaxation ($\mu$SR) measurements in their mixed state. The muon depolarization rate [$\sigma_{\rm v}(T)$] exhibits a…
The discovery of superconductivity in thin films ($\sim$10 nm) of infinite-layer hole-doped NdNiO$_2$ has invigorated the field of high-temperature superconductivity research, reviving the debate over contrasting views that nickelates that…
We report the finding of a novel pairing state in a newly discovered superconductor Na$_2$Cr$_3$As$_3$. This material has a noncentrosymmetric quasi-one-dimensional crystal structure and is superconducting at $T_{\mathrm{C}}\sim$ 8.0 K. We…
A systematic study of the superconducting properties in a series of arc-melted Nb-B samples close to the 1:1 composition was carried out. Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) shows that all samples are both non-stoichiometric, and comprising of…
Superconductivity, at 2-3 K, was observed in a novel phase of the ternary Li-Rh-B system. The structural phase exhibits a large noncentrosymmetric cubic unit cell with the a-parameter being within 1.208 \leq a \leq 1.215 nm. This phase is…
On the quest for efficient thermoelectrics, semiconducting behavior is a targeted property. Yet, this is often difficult to achieve due to the complex interplay between electronic structure, temperature, and disorder. We find this to be the…
