Helium (He) is the most inert noble gas at ambient conditions. It adopts a hexagonal close packed structure (P63/mmc) and remains in the insulating phase up to 32 TPa. In contrast, lithium (Li) is one of the most reactive metals at zero…

Bound electron-hole pairs in semiconductors known as excitons can form a coherent state at low temperatures akin to a BCS condensate. The resulting phase is known as the excitonic insulator and has superfluid properties. Here we…

An excitonic insulator$^{1,2}$ (EI) is a correlated many-body state of electron-hole pairs, potentially leading to high-temperature condensate and superfluidity$^{3-7}$. Despite ever-growing experiments suggesting possible EI states in…

Spontaneous condensation of excitons is a long sought phenomenon analogous to the condensation of Cooper pairs in a superconductor. It is expected to occur in a semiconductor at thermodynamic equilibrium if the binding energy of the…

A state of an excitonic insulator with the electric current is studied. Initially, in the metallic phase, the electrons and holes are assumed to be moving in the opposite directions, so as the electric current exists. This state is…

The excitonic insulator (EI) is an exotic ground state of narrow-gap semiconductors and semimetals arising from spontaneous condensation of electron-hole pairs bound by attractive Coulomb interaction. Despite research on EIs dating back to…

High-entropy alloy (HEA) superconductors have attracted significant attention due to their exceptional low-temperature mechanical and superconducting properties. We report the synthesis and thorough characterization of an equiatomic HEA…

Helium and rare gases (RG: Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe) are typically considered chemically inert, yet under the extreme pressures of planetary interiors they may form compounds with unexpected properties. Using crystal structure prediction and…

High entropy alloys (HEAs) are the new class of materials with an attractive combination of tunable mechanical and physicochemical properties. They crystallize mainly in cubic structures, however, for practical applications, HEAs with…

Superconducting high-entropy alloys (HEAs) are a newly burgeoning field of unconventional superconductors and raise intriguing questions about the presence of superconductivity in highly disordered systems, which lack regular phonon modes.…

The fundamental idea of the excitonic insulator (EI) driven by electron-hole correlations in narrow-gap semiconductors or semimetals was originally proposed in the 1960s, and only theoretical studies had been advanced for a long time.…

We employ mean-field approximation to investigate the interplay between the nontrivial band topology and the formation of excitonic insulator (EI) in a one-dimensional chain of atomic $s-p$ orbitals in the presence of repulsive…

An excitonic insulator (EI) phase is a consequence of collective many-body effects where an optical band gap is formed by the condensation of electron-hole pairs or excitons. We report pressure-dependent optical pump optical probe…

Excitons are spin integer particles that are predicted to condense into a coherent quantum state at sufficiently low temperature, and exciton condensates can be realized at much higher temperature than condensates of atoms because of strong…

In this paper, first, we present a general formulation to investigate the ground-state and elementary excitations of an excitonic insulator (EI) in real materials. In addition, we discuss the out-of-equilibrium state induced (albeit…

Lanthanum (La) is the first member of the rare-earth series of elements that has recently raised considerable interest because of its unique high-Tc superhydride LaH10. Although several studies have found superconductivity and phase…

Excitonic insulator (EI) was proposed in 60's as a distinct insulating state originating from pure electronic interaction, but its material realization has been elusive with extremely few material candidates and with only limited evidence…

We calculate the critical temperature below which an excitonic insulator exists at the pressure-induced semiconductor-semimetal transition. Our approach is based on an effective-mass model for valence and conduction band electrons…

We report a record high superconducting transition temperature ($T_{\rm c}$) up to 23.6 K under high pressure in the elemental metal Ti, one of the top ten most abundant elements in Earth's crust. The $T_{\rm c}$ increases monotonically…

In an experiment in a diamond anvil cell utilizing helium pressure medium, yttrium metal displays a superconducting transition temperature which increases monotonically from Tc ? 3.5 K at 30 GPa to 17 K at 89.3 GPa, one of the highest…
