We investigate the electronic and magnetic properties as well as lattice dynamics and spin-phonon coupling of $\beta$-Na$_{0.33}$V$_2$O$_5$ using temperature-dependent Raman scattering, dc-magnetization and dc-resistivity, x-ray…
Topological materials provide an exclusive platform to study the dynamics of relativistic particles in table-top experiments and offer the possibility of wide-scale technological applications. ZrSiS is a newly discovered topological…
The number of absorption and Raman optical modes for each Wyckoff orbit in the high-temperature tetragonal (I4/mmm) parent lattice of the Ruddlesden-Popper compounds Ca$_3$X$_2$O$_7$, with X=Mn or X=Ti is given. We analyze the effect of…
Polycrystalline ceramic samples and a single crystal of EuTiO3 have been investigated by Raman spectroscopy in the temperature range 80-300 K. Although synchrotron XRD data clearly indicated the cubic to tetragonal phase transition around…
Recent advances in nanowire synthesis have enabled the realization of crystal phases that in bulk are attainable only under extreme conditions, i.e. high temperature and/or high pressure. For group IV semiconductors this means access to…
We present optical measurements of phononic excitations in La$_{2/3}$Ca$_{1/3}$MnO$_{3}$ (LCMO) and La$_{2/3}$Sr$_{1/3}$MnO$_{3}$ (LSMO) thin films covering the full temperature range from the metallic ferromagnetic to the insulating…
Motivated by the absence of experimental superconductivity in the metallic Pm-3n phase of AlH3 despite the predictions, we reanalyze its vibrational and superconducting properties at pressures above 99 GPa making use of first-principles…
We present a study of the lattice dynamical properties of superconducting SrPt$_3$P ($T_c = 8.4$ K) via high-resolution inelastic x-ray scattering (IXS) and ab initio calculations. Density functional perturbation theory including spin-orbit…
Raman scattering experiments have been carried out on single crystals of Nd$_{0.5}$Sr$_{0.5}$MnO$_3$ as a function of temperature in the range of 320-50 K, covering the paramagnetic insulator-ferromagnetc metal transition at 250 K and the…
Using infrared (IR) and Raman spectroscopies combined with high-resolution x-ray diffraction, we address several controversial aspects of altermagnetic $\alpha$-MnTe. We show that mechanical stress applied to crystals of this material…
We report detailed Raman spectroscopic and magnetic susceptibility studies on the spin-driven ferroelectric compounds Mn4Nb2O9 (MNO) and Mn4Ta2O9 (MTO). Both systems exhibit strong spin-phonon coupling below the short-range magnetic…

Magnetic and lattice excitations in the quantum antiferromagnet (C$_4$H$_{12}$N$_2$)Cu$_2$Cl$_6$ (PHCC) are studied across two pressure-induced phase transition at $P_c=4.3~\mathrm{kbar}$ and $P_1=13.4~\mathrm{kbar}$ using Raman…
Raman spectroscopy experiments on single crystals of CuSb2O6 and CoSb2O6 quasi-one-dimensional antiferromagnets with trirutile crystal structure were performed, with a focus on the first material. The observed Raman-active phonon modes and…
Temperature dependence of vibrational modes in semiconductors depends on lattice thermal expansion and anharmonic phonon-phonon scattering. Evaluating the two contributions from experimental data is not straightforward, especially for…
The magnetic correlations in the austenite phase and the consequent martensitic transition in inverse magnetocaloric alloys, Ni$_{2}$Mn$_{1+x}$Sn$_{1-x}$, have been a matter of debate for decades. We conclusively establish using {\it ab…
2D magnetism in triangular lattices has already shown potential for hosting exotic magnetic states. Control of these magnetic states, both in terms of magnetic properties and in terms of charge doping would be the next step. This makes…
We use density functional theory (DFT) calculations to study the lattice vibrations and electronic properties of the correlated metal LaNiO$_3$. To characterize the rhombohedral to cubic structural phase transition of perovskite LaNiO$_3$,…
