A variety of nickel oxide compounds have long been studied for their manifestation of various correlated electron phenomena. Recently, superconductivity was observed in nanoscale infinite layer nickelate thin films of…
The observation of superconductivity in infinite layer nickelate (Nd,Sr)NiO$_{2}$ thin films has led to rapid theoretical and experimental investigations of these copper-oxide-analogue systems [1-15]. Superconductivity has also been found…
Several reports about infinite-layer nickelate thin films suggest that the superconducting critical temperature versus chemical doping phase diagram has a dome-like shape, similar to cuprates. Here, we demonstrate a highly reproducible…
Rare-earth nickelates RNiO$_2$ adopting an infinite-layer phase show superconductivity once La, Pr or Nd are substituted by a divalent cation. Either in the pristine or doped form, these materials are reported to adopt a high symmetry,…
We report evidence for superconductivity with onset temperatures up to 11 K in thin films of the infinite-layer nickelate parent compound NdNiO$_2$. A combination of oxide molecular-beam epitaxy and atomic hydrogen reduction yields samples…
In this paper we investigate the electronic and superconducting properties in nickelate compounds of NiO2 through Perturbative Density Functional Theory (P-DFT) and multi-band BCS theory. We consider three different cases of study (i) the…
Flat bands coupled with magnetism and topological orders near or at the Fermi level are well known to drive exotic correlation physics and unconventional superconductivity. Here, based on first-principles modeling combined with an in-depth…
Recently superconductivity at 9 - 15 K was discovered in an infinite-layer nickelate (Nd$_{0.8}$Sr$_{0.2}$NiO$_2$ films), which has received enormous attention. Since the $Ni^{1+}$ ionic state in NdNiO$_2$ may have the $3d^9$ outer-shell…
The recent discovery of superconductivity in oxygen-reduced monovalent nickelates has raised a new platform for the study of unconventional superconductivity, with similarities and differences with the cuprate high temperature…
Lattice compression has emerged as a fundamental tuning parameter for nickelate superconductivity. Pressure acts as a trigger to induce superconductivity in bulk Ruddlesden-Popper nickelates. For infinite-layer nickelate thin films,…
Strongly correlated materials often respond sensitively to the external perturbations. In the recently discovered superconducting infinite-layer nickelates, the superconducting transition temperature can be dramatically enhanced via only…
Recently, superconductivity was discovered in the infinite layer of hole-doped nickelates NdNiO$_{2}$. Contrary to this, superconductivity in LaNiO$_{2}$ is still under debate. This indicates the crucial role played by the $f$ electrons on…
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…
Revealing the momentum-resolved electronic structure of infinite-layer nickelates is essential for understanding this new class of unconventional superconductors, but has been hindered by the formidable challenges in improving the sample…
The discovery of infinite layer nickelate superconductor marks the new era in the field of superconductivity. In the rare-earth (Re) nickelates ReNiO2, although the Ni is also of d9 electronic configuration, analogous to Cu d9 in cuprates,…
Motivated by the discovery of superconductivity in the infinite-layer nickelate family, we report an experimental endeavor to clean the surface of nickelate superconductor Pr0.8Sr0.2NiO2 films by Ar+ ion sputtering and subsequent annealing,…
Infinite-layer nickelates stand as a promising frontier in the exploration of unconventional superconductivity. Their synthesis through topotactic oxygen reduction from the parent perovskite phase remains a complex and elusive process. This…
We interpret via advanced ab initio calculations the multiple phase transitions observed recently in ultra-thin LaNiO$_{3}$/LaAlO$_{3}$ superlattices. The ground state is insulating, charge-ordered, and antiferromagnetic due to concurrent…

The family of infinite-layer nickelates promises important insights into the mechanism of unconventional superconductivity. Since superconductivity has so far only been observed in epitaxial thin films, heteroepitaxy with the substrate or a…
