Precise control of quantum particles is required for many interesting or novel experiments. Here we consider the task of transporting an atom using an external harmonic potential from one well of an optical lattice to another without…
The two-dimensional electron gas at the LaTiO3/SrTiO3 or LaAlO3/SrTiO3 oxide interfaces becomes superconducting when the carrier density is tuned by gating. The measured resistance and superfluid density reveal an inhomogeneous…
Enhancing heat transport within thermochemical heat storage (TCHS) materials is essential for improving the heat output. A common strategy is combining salts with highly conductive additives such as carbon or metals. However, such…
We examined the crystal structure of the new thermoelectric material LaOBiS2-xSex, whose thermoelectric performance is enhanced by Se substitution, by using powder synchrotron X-ray diffraction and Rietveld refinement. The emergence of…
A very remarkable feature of the layered transition metal oxides (TMOs), whose most famous members are the high-temperature superconductors (HTSs), is that even though they are prepared as bulk three-dimensional single crystals, they…
Malleability of metals is an example of how dynamics of defects like dislocations induced by external stresses alters material properties and enables technological applications. However, these defects move merely to comply with the…
Oxide heterostructures allow for detailed studies of 2D electronic transport phenomena. Herein, different facets of magnetotransport in selected spin-orbit-coupled systems are analyzed and characterized by their single-band and multiband…
Lanthanum hydride LaH$_{10}$ with a sodalitelike clathrate structure was experimentally realized to exhibit a room-temperature superconductivity under megabar pressures. Based on first-principles calculations, we reveal that the metal…
Oxygen nonstoichiometry, electrical conductivity and thermal expansion of La2 xSrxNiO4-\delta phases with high levels of strontium substitution (1 =< x =< 1.4) have been investigated in air and oxygen atmosphere in the temperature range…
We present a detailed analysis of the structure dependence of the lattice thermal conductivity of SrTiO3. We have used both ab initio Molecular Dynamic simulations and Density Functional Theory calculations to decouple the effect of…
Ferroelectric higher-order topological insulators (HOTIs) exhibit tunable physical properties arising from the interplay between ferroelectric polarization and band topology. This work investigates the topological origin of two classes of…
The low-temperature crystal structure of Fe1.13Te, which exhibits an anomalous two-step magnetic transition, was clarified by the systematic x-ray diffraction measurements. It was found that two-step structural phase transition,…
Vanadium dioxide (VO$_2$) undergoes a metal-insulator transition (MIT) at 340 K with the structural change between tetragonal and monoclinic crystals as the temperature is lowered. The conductivity $\sigma$ drops at MIT by four orders of…
A two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) forms at the interface of complex oxides like $SrTiO_{3}$ (STO) and $LaTiO_{3}$ (LTO), despite each material having a low native conductivity, as a band and a Mott insulator, respectively. The interface…
We present a study of longitudinal thermal transport in the Kitaev spin model on the honeycomb lattice, focusing on the role of anisotropic exchange to cover both, gapless and gapped phases. Employing a complementary combination of exact…
$\alpha$-RuCl$_3$, a well-known candidate material for Kitaev quantum spin liquid, is prone to stacking disorder due to the weak van der Waals bonding between the honeycomb layers. After a decade of intensive experimental and theoretical…
Heat transfer in liquids is a very challenging problem as it combines the competing effect of high frequency oscillations, which dominate liquid heat capacity, and diffusive motion, which enables transport macroscopic flow. This issue is…
We investigate a series of liquid-crystalline phthalocyanines (metal-free and Cu, Zn, Ni, Co complexes) by correlating their vibrational signatures with their electronic performance in organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs). Raman…
Resistive random access memories (ReRAMs) with a bilayer TaOx/HfO2 stack structure have shown unique multi-level resistive switching capabilities. However, the physical processes governing their behavior, and specifically the atomistic…
Computer simulations are presented of the isotropic-to-nematic transition in a liquid crystal confined between two parallel plates a distance H apart. The plates are neutral and do not impose any anchoring on the particles. Depending on the…
