The spatial inhomogeneities are expected to affect nucleation process in an essential way. These effects are studied theoretically by considering the case of the depinning of the charge density wave as a typical example. The threshold field…
Impurity pinning has long been discussed to have a profound effect on the dynamics of an incommensurate charge density wave (CDW), which would otherwise slide through the lattice without resistance. Here we visualize the impurity pinning…
In conventional superconductors, magnetic impurities form an impurity band due to quantum interference of the impurity bound states, leading to suppression of the superconducting transition temperature. Such quantum interference effects can…
Charge density wave (CDW) is a widely concerned emergent phenomenon in condensed matter physics. To establish a systematic understanding of CDW, we develop a diagrammatic self-consistent-field approach for cubic Holstein model employing…
We study theoretically two effects related to impurity depinning that are common for 1D Luttinger liquid (LL) and linear-chain CDW conductors. First, we consider the electron transport through a single impurity in a 1D conducting channel…
Non-local quasiparticles in correlated quantum materials can exhibit the proximity effect. For instance, in metal superconductor hybrid systems, the leaking of cooper pairs to the metallic region induces superconducting correlations in a…
The local differential tunneling conductance on a Zn impurity in a disordered d-wave superconductors is studied. Quantum interference between many impurities leads to definitive quasiparticle spectra. We suggest that an elaborate analysis…
Starting from the static Fukuyama-Lee-Rice equation for a three-dimensional incommensurate charge density wave (CDW) in quasi one-dimensional conductors a solvable model for local phase pinning by impurities is defined and studied. We find…
We investigate the effect of strong, nonmagnetic impurities on quasi-one-dimensional conventional and unconventional density waves (DW and UDW). The conventional case remains unaffected similarly to s-wave superconductors in the presence of…
An effect of paramagnetic impurity located in a vicinity of a quantum well (QW) on spin polarization of the carriers in the QW is analyzed theoretically. Within approach of Bardeen's tunneling Hamiltonian the problem is formulated in terms…
While impurity has been known widely to affect phase transitions, the atomistic mechanisms have rarely been disclosed. We directly show in atomic scale how impurity atoms induces the condensation of a representative electronic phase, charge…
New quantum phenomena are continuously being discovered in 2D systems. In particular, the charge density wave (CDW) has the aspect of a quantum crystal with a macroscopic wave function (order parameter), so unlike quantum liquids…
We have investigated the effect of nonmagnetic impurities on the quasi-one-dimensional unconventional density wave (UDW) ground state. The thermodynamics were found to be close to those of a d-wave superconductor in the Born limit. Four…
We present a detailed theoretical study on the thermodynamic properties of impure quasi-one dimensional unconventional charge-, and spin-density waves in the framework of mean-field theory. The impurities are of the ordinary non-magnetic…
We study the effect of a single impurity on the transport properties of a one dimensional quantum liquid highly excited away from its ground state by a sudden quench of the bulk interaction. In particular we compute the time dependent dc…
The impurity spectral function is studied in coupled double quantum wires at finite temperatures. Simple anisotropy in the confinement direction of the wires leads to finite non-diagonal elements of the impurity spectral function matrix.…
The charge density wave (CDW) state of 2H-NbSe$_2$ features commensurate domains separated by domain boundaries accompanied by phase slips known as discommensurations. We have unambiguously visualized the structure of CDW domains using a…
We investigate how magnetic impurities may affect a system exhibiting charge-density wave (CDW) in its ground state. We consider a disordered Hubbard-Holstein model with a homogeneous electron-phonon interaction, but with a (randomly…
We study transport through a one-dimensional quantum wire of correlated fermions connected to semi-infinite leads. The wire contains either a single impurity or two barriers, the latter allowing for resonant tunneling. In the leads the…
The influence of an external magnetic field on a quasi one-dimensional system with a charge density wave (CDW) instability is treated within the random phase approximation which includes both CDW and spin density wave correlations. We show…
