In the last few decades, the study of topological materials has been carried out on an extensive scale. Half-Heusler alloys are well known for their topological behaviours. In this work, we present a detailed study of topological properties…
Ferromagnetic topological insulators exhibit the quantum anomalous Hall effect that might be used for high precision metrology and edge channel spintronics. In conjunction with superconductors, they could host chiral Majorana zero modes…
The experimental realisation of unconventional superconductivity and charge order in kagome systems \textit{A}V$_3$Sb$_5$ is of critical importance. We conducted a highly systematic study of Cs(V$_{1-x}$Nb$_x$)$_3$Sb$_5$ with $x$=0.07…
The thermoelectric coefficients have been measured on the Yb-based heavy fermion compounds beta-YbAlB4 and YbRh2Si2 down to a very low temperature. We observe a striking difference in the behavior of the Seebeck coefficient, S in the…
In search of new prospects for thermoelectric materials, using ab-initio calculations and semi-classical Boltzmann theory, we have systematically investigated the electronic structure and transport properties of 18-valence electron count…
Van der Waals magnetic materials are an ideal platform to study low-dimensional magnetism. Opposed to other members of this family, the magnetic semiconductor CrSBr is highly resistant to degradation in air, which, besides its exceptional…
Identification of novel materials with enhanced thermoelectric (TE) performance is critical for advancing TE research. In this direction, this is the first report on TE properties of low-cost, nontoxic, and abundant core-shell Cu@Cu2O…
Thermal switching by magnetic fields is one of the important functionalities in thermal management technologies. In low-temperature devices, superconducting states can be used as a magneto-thermal-switching (MTS) component, because carrier…
The thermopower and thermal conductivity of superconducting perovskite $MgCNi_3$ ($T_c \approx$ 8 K) have been studied. The thermopower is negative from room temperature to 10 K. Combining with the negative Hall coefficient reported…
Energy dissipation is a fundamental process governing the dynamics of physical, chemical, and biological systems. It is also one of the main characteristics distinguishing quantum and classical phenomena. In condensed matter physics, in…
Weyl semimetals host linear energy dispersions around Weyl nodes, as well as monopoles of Berry curvature in momentum space around these points. These features give rise to unique transport signatures in a Weyl semimetal, such as transverse…
A large anomalous Nernst effect is essential for thermoelectric energy harvesting in the transverse geometry without external magnetic field. It is often connected with anomalous Hall effect, especially when electronic Berry curvature is…
In topological insulators (TIs), metallic surface conductance saturates the insulating bulk resistance with de- creasing temperature, resulting in resistivity plateau at low temperatures as a transport signature originating from metallic…
The Nernst effect of Pr$_{2-x}$Ce$_{x}$CuO$_4$ (x=0.13, 0.15, and 0.17) has been measured on thin film samples between 5-120 K and 0-14 T. In comparison to recent measurements on hole-doped cuprates that showed an anomalously large Nernst…
Two different ferroelectric materials, Sr$_{0.95}$Ba$_{0.05}$TiO$_3$ and Sr$_{0.985}$Ca$_{0.015}$TiO$_3$, can be turned into polar metals with broken centrosymmetry via electron doping. Systematic substitution of Nb$^{5+}$ for Ti$^{4+}$ has…
The thermoelectric and transport properties of a Fe3O4/SiO2/p-Si(100) heterostructure have been investigated between 100 and 300 K. Both Hall and Seebeck coefficients change sign from negative to positive with increasing temperature while…
75As-zero-field nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) measurements are performed on CaFe2As2 under pressure. At P = 4.7 and 10.8 kbar, the temperature dependences of nuclear-spin-lattice relaxation rate…
Research on the oxide perovskites has uncovered electronic properties that are strikingly enhanced compared with those in conventional metals. Examples are the high critical temperatures of the cuprate superconductors and the colossal…
We report measurements of the Nernst effect and of the magneto-resistance of granular aluminum films near the metal to insulator transition. These films show sharp transitions as a function of temperature and magnetic field. At low…
We present a study of Nernst effect in underdoped $La_{2-x}Sr_xCuO_4$ in magnetic fields as high as 28T. At high fields, a sizeable Nernst signal was found to persist in presence of a field-induced non-metallic resistivity. By…
