BaCo$_2$(AsO$_4$)$_2$ (BCAO), a honeycomb cobaltate, is considered a promising candidate for materials displaying the Kitaev quantum spin liquid state. This assumption is based on the distinctive characteristics of Co$^{2+}$ ions (3$d^7$)…

Inelastic neutron scattering experiment has been performed on a new heavy fermion compound YbAgGe for a polycrystalline sample at zero magnetic field. A quasielastic scattering and a crystal field excitation at 12 meV was observed. Both of…

We present the Raman-scattering spectra of CaV2O5 and MgV2O5. The magnetic contribution in the Raman spectra of CaV2O5 is found in the form of a strong asymmetric line, centered at 2Delta, with a tail on the high-energy side. Our analysis…

Surface enhanced Raman spectra from molecules (bipyridyl ethylene) adsorbed on gold dumbells are observed to become increasingly asymmetric (Fano-like) at higher incident light intensity. The electronic temperature (inferred from the…

Using the electrostatic approximation, we analyze electromagnetic fields scattered by sharp conical metal tips, which are illuminated with light polarized along the tip axis. We establish scaling relations for the scattered field amplitude…

We performed susceptibility, magnetization, specific heat, and single crystal neutron diffraction measurements on single crystalline BaMn$_2$Si$_2$O$_7$. Based on the results, we revisited its spin structure with a more accurate solution…

We study the scattering of electromagnetic waves in anisotropic energetic materials. Nonlinear light-matter interactions in molecular crystals result in frequency-conversion and polarization changes. Applied electromagnetic fields of…

The single ion properties of the zig-zag chain compound SrTm$_2$O$_4$ have been investigated using heat capacity, magnetic susceptibility, magnetization, inelastic neutron scattering, and polarized muon spectroscopy. Two crystal field…

We present the low-temperature magnetic properties of two Yb$^{3+}$-based triangular lattice compounds NaSrYb(BO$_3$)$_2$ and K$_3$YbSi$_2$O$_7$ via thermodynamic measurements followed by crystal electric field (CEF) calculations.…

The Raman spectrum and particularly the Raman scattering intensities of monoclinic $\beta\text{-Ga}_2\text{O}_3$ are investigated by experiment and theory. The low symmetry of $\beta\text{-Ga}_2\text{O}_3$ results in a complex dependence of…

Many physical properties of the copper oxide high temperature superconductors appear to defy the conventional (one-electron) theory of metals, and the development of new theories incorporating strong electron correlations is currently at…

We study magnetic excitations in vanadium spinel oxides AV$_2$O$_4$ (A=Zn, Mg, Cd) using two models: first one is a superexchange model for vanadium S=1 spins, second one includes in addition spin-orbit coupling, and crystal anisotropy. We…

We performed a Raman scattering study of Na$_2$Ti$_2$As$_2$O. We identified a symmetry breaking structural transition at around $T_s = 150$ K, which matches a large bump in the electrical resistivity. Several new peaks are detected below…

Inelastic neutron scattering experiments on poly crystalline sample of heavy-fermion compound YbCo$_2$Zn$_{20}$ were carried out in order to obtain microscopic insights on the ground state and its magnetic field response. At zero field at…

We report magnetization and neutron scattering measurements of the half-doped compound La$_{1.5}$Sr$_{0.5}$CoO$_4$, which exhibits a checkerboard pattern of charge ordering below ~800K. In the antiferromagnetically-ordered phase below \~40K…

We apply moderate-high-energy inelastic neutron scattering (INS) measurements to investigate Yb$^{3+}$ crystalline electric field (CEF) levels in the triangular spin-liquid candidate YbMgGaO$_4$. Three CEF excitations from the ground-state…

For many materials, Raman spectra are intricately structured and provide valuable information about compositional stoichiometry and crystal quality. Here we use density-functional theory calculations, mass approximation, and the Raman…

We use neutron scattering to study the spin excitations associated with the stripe antiferromagnetic (AFM) order in semiconducting K$_{0.85}$Fe$_{1.54}$Se$_2$ ($T_N$=$280$ K). We show that the spin wave spectra can be accurately described…

Temperature dependent Raman scattering measurements have been performed to explore unusual coupling between magnetism and crystal structure in doped pyrochlore iridate Y$_2$(Ir$_{1-x}$Ru$_x$)$_2$O$_7$ with $x$ = 0.0, 0.05 and 0.2. The…

We report on Raman scattering measurements of single crystalline La$_{1-x}$Sr$_x$MnO$_3$ ($x$=0, 0.06, 0.09 and 0.125), focusing on the high frequency regime. We observe multi-phonon scattering processes up to fourth-order which show…
