Understanding the evolution of the superconducting transition temperature in relation to doping and interaction strengths is one of the most challenging problems in high temperature superconductivity. By refining determinant quantum Monte…
Ferrites with (inverse) spinel structure display a large variety of electronic and magnetic properties making some of them interesting for potential applications in spintronics. We investigate the thermally induced interdiffusion of…
The recent observation of unconventional superconductivity in thin films of LaNiO2 (critical temperature, Tc~10 K) and in bulk single crystals of La3Ni2O7 (327) under pressure (Tc~80 K), has brought to light a long sought-after class of…
The dielectric properties of NiO thin films grown by pulsed laser deposition have been studied as a function of strain at temperature from 10 to 300 K. Above 150 K, the contribution of space-charge polarization to the dielectric…
Monolayer NiI$_2$ garners large research interest due to its multiferroic behavior stemming from the interplay between its non-collinear magnetic order and the spin-orbit coupling. This prompts an investigation into the stability of the…
Nickel/Bismuth (Ni/Bi) bilayers have recently attracted attention due to the occurrence of time-reversal symmetry breaking in the superconducting state. Here, we report on the structural, magnetic and electric characterization of thin film…
One focal challenge in engineering low-power and scalable all-oxide spintronic devices lies in exploring ferromagnetic oxide material with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) and electronic conductivity while exhibiting tunable spin…
Titanium nitride halides, TiNX (X = F, Cl, Br, I) in the {\alpha}-phase (orthorhombic) are exciting quasi two-dimensional (2D) electronic systems exhibiting a fascinating series of electronic ground states under different conditions.…
The recent discovery of high-temperature superconductivity in La$_3$Ni$_2$O$_7$ under ambient-pressure in strained thin films raises the question of how superconductivity can be optimized through strain. In this work, we investigate the…
Key to advancing lithium-ion battery technology, and in particular fast charging capabilities, is our ability to follow and understand the dynamic processes occurring in operating materials under realistic conditions, in real time, and on…
Cobalt is used in Li-ion batteries, but it is expensive and could be replaced by nickel to deliver better performance at a lower cost. With this motivation, we discuss how the character of redox orbitals of LiNiO$_2$ can be ascertained…
The relationship between the long-range antiferromagnetic order in cuprates and the high-temperature superconductivity in these compounds represents unresolved, nearly four-decades long scientific problem. Because recently discovered…
Polar discontinuities occurring at interfaces between two different materials constitute both a challenge and an opportunity in the study and application of a variety of devices. In order to cure the large electric field occurring in such…
The magnetic properties and structure of LixCoO2 for x between 0.5 and 1.0 are reported. Co4+ is found to be high-spin in LixCoO2 for x between 0.94 and 1.0 and low-spin for x between 0.50 and 0.78. Weak antiferromagnetic coupling is…
Nickel oxide nanoparticles are prepared by a sol gel method and characterized by x-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscope. Here we present measurements on temperature and field dependence of magnetization and time dependence…

We present a comparative density-functional theory plus dynamical mean-field theory (DFT+DMFT) study of the two known superconducting members of the rare-earth (R) layered nickelate family: hole-doped RNiO$_{2}$ ($n=\infty$) and…
Controlled introduction of oxygen vacancies offers an effective route to induce metal-to-insulator transition in strongly correlated rare-earth nickelates ($R$NiO$_3$) at room temperature. However, the role played by the rare-earth cations…
