Dynamic critical fluctuations in magnetic materials encode important information about magnetic ordering in the associated critical exponents. Using nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond, we implement $T_2$ (spin-decoherence) noise…
Phase transitions and critical phenomena, which are dominated by fluctuations and correlations, are one of the fields replete with physical paradigms and unexpected discoveries. Especially for two-dimensional magnetism, the limitation of…
Strong spin fluctuations are expected near the thermodynamic critical point of a continuous magnetic phase transition. Such critical spin fluctuations are highly correlated and in principle can occur at any time- and length-scales; they…
The transition between distinct phases of matter is characterized by the nature of fluctuations near the critical point. We demonstrate that noise spectroscopy can not only diagnose the presence of a phase transition, but can also determine…
We investigate theoretically the Seebeck effect in materials close to a ferromagnetic quantum critical point to explain anomalous behaviour at low temperatures. It is found that the main effect of spin fluctuations is to enhance the…
We present a thorough magnetization and magneto-transport study of the diluted Fe-intercalated CrTe2 family member, Fe1/5CrTe2, a van der Waals ferromagnet. Fe1/5CrTe2 shows an elevated Curie transition temperature of 182 K in comparison to…
Fe3-xGeTe2 is a layered magnetic van der Waals material of interest for both fundamental and applied research. Despite the observation of intriguing physical properties, open questions exist even on the basic features related to magnetism:…
We employ polarization-resolved Raman spectroscopy to study critical nematic fluctuations in Ba(Fe$_{1-x}$Au$_x$)$_2$As$_2$ superconductors above and across well separated tetragonal to orthorhombic phase transition at temperature $T_S(x)$…
An inelastic light (Raman) scattering study of nematicity and critical fluctuations in ${\rm Ba(Fe_{1-x}Co_x)_2As_2}$ ($0\le x \le 0.051$) is presented. It is shown that the response from fluctuations appears only in $B_{1g}$ (${x^2-y^2}$)…
When the transition temperature of a continuous phase transition is tuned to absolute zero, new ordered phases and physical behaviour emerge in the vicinity of the resulting quantum critical point. Sr3Ru2O7 can be tuned through quantum…
In correlated quantum materials, divergent critical fluctuations near the quantum critical point are often closely associated with exotic quantum phases of matter, such as unconventional superconductivity and quantum spin liquids. Here we…
Not all noise in experimental measurements is unwelcome. Certain fundamental noise sources contain valuable information about the system itself -- a notable example being the inherent voltage fluctuations that exist across any resistor…
The anomalous transport and thermodynamic properties in the quantum-critical region, in the cuprates, and in the quasi-two dimensional Fe-based superconductors and heavy-fermion compounds, have the same temperature dependences. This can…
Quantum criticality is a central concept in condensed matter physics, but the direct observation of quantum critical fluctuations has remained elusive. Here we present an x-ray diffraction study of the charge density wave (CDW) in 2H-NbSe2…
The critical properties of the single-crystalline van der Waals bonded ferromagnet Fe$_{3-x}$GeTe$_2$ were investigated by bulk dc magnetization around the paramagnetic (PM) to ferromagnetic (FM) phase transition. The Fe$_{3-x}$GeTe$_2$…
The origin of the strange metallic behavior observed in a wide range of quantum materials is an open challenge to condensed matter physics. Historically, strange metals were uniquely associated with antiferromagnetic quantum critical points…
Fluctuations are important near phase transitions, where they can be difficult to describe quantitatively. Superconductivity in mesoscopic rings is particularly intriguing because the critical temperature is an oscillatory function of…
Fe$_3$GeTe$_2$ is a prototypical metallic van der Waals ferromagnet with itinerant magnetism and a highly tunable Curie temperature, yet how electronic excitations couple to spin and lattice degrees of freedom across its magnetic transition…
The neutron electric dipole moment experiment at the Spallation Neutron Source (nEDM@SNS experiment) proposes to measure the nEDM using the spin-dependent capture cross section of neutrons on $^3$He. The critical dressing mode of this…
The Fe$_{n}$GeTe$_{2}$ systems are newly discovered two-dimensional van-der-Waals materials, exhibiting magnetism at room temperature. The sub-systems belonging to Fe$_{n}$GeTe$_{2}$ class are special because they show site-dependent…
