Room temperature Mn K-edge extended x-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) studies were carried out on La$_{1-x}$Sr$_x$MnO$_{3+\delta}$ (x = 0.1 to 0.9) compounds. It is found from the detailed EXAFS analysis that the local structure…

We present temperature-dependent single-crystal diffraction results on seven antifluorite-type $A_2MeX_6$ compounds with $Me$=Os or Ir: K$_2$OsCl$_6$, $A_2$OsBr$_6$ with $A$=K, Rb, Cs and NH$_4$, and K$_2$Ir$X_6$ with $X$=Cl and Br. The…

The transport of heat and charge in cuprates was measured in single crystals of La_{2-x}Sr_xCuO_{4+\delta} (LSCO) across the doping phase diagram at low temperatures. In underdoped LSCO, the thermal conductivity is found to decrease with…

We have investigated the magnetic field-induced metal-insulator transition in the tau-phase organic conductors, which occurs in fields above 35 T, and below 14 K, by magnetization, thermoelectric, and pressure dependent transport methods.…

The pyrochlore iridates, A$_2$Ir$_2$O$_7$, show a wide variety of structural, electronic, and magnetic properties controlled by the interplay of different exchange interactions, which can be tuned by external pressure. In this work, we…

Transport, thermal and magnetic measurements have been carried out on (Pr1-ySmy)1-xCaxCoO3. The system exhibits a structural phase transition accompanied by the spin state change from the intermediate spin (IS) state to the low spin (LS)…

We study how the Mott metal-insulator transition (MIT) is affected when we have to deal with electrons with different angular momentum quantum numbers. For that purpose we apply ab-initio quantum-chemical methods to lithium rings in order…

We report the results of a systematic investigation of the phase diagram of the iron-based superconductor, Ba1-xKxFe2As2, from x = 0 to x = 1.0 using high resolution neutron and x-ray diffraction and magnetization measurements. The…

The ac electrical transport properties of polycrystalline Pr$_2$MgZrO$_6$ (PMZ) have been investigated using conductivity and impedance spectroscopic techniques. The crystal structure of PMZ has been determined to be monoclinic through a…

Measurements of conductance $G$ on short, wide, high-mobility Si-MOSFETs reveal both a two-dimensional metal-insulator transition (MIT) at moderate temperatures (1 $<~ T <$ 4~K) and mesoscopic fluctuations of the conductance at low…

We report on a Ni L$_{2,3}$ edges x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) study in $R$NiO$_3$ perovskites. These compounds exhibit a metal to insulator ($MI$) transition as temperature decreases. The L$_{3}$ edge presents a clear splitting in…

The electronic phase diagram of PrFeAsO$_{1-x}$F$_{x}$ (0$\leq$x$\leq$0.225) has been determined using synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction, magnetization and resistivity measurements. The structural transition temperature is suppressed…

The magnetic transport properties have been measured for La0.67-xYxCa0.33MnO3 (0 <= x <= 0.14) system. It was found that the transition temperature Tp almost linearly moves to higher temperature as H increases. Electron spin resonance…

Eu2Ir2O7, a candidate Weyl semimetal, shows an insulator-to-metal transition as a function of Bi substitution at the Eu site. In this work, we investigate the (Eu_1-xBi_x)2Ir2O7 series via Hard X-ray Photoemission Spectroscopy (HAXPES),…

We provide experimental and theoretical evidence for a novel type of pressure-induced insulator-metal transition characterized by site-selective delocalization of the electrons. M\"ossbauer spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and electrical…

The temperature dependence of the Mott metal-insulator transition (MIT) is studied with a VO_2-based two-terminal device. When a constant voltage is applied to the device, an abrupt current jump is observed with temperature. With increasing…

The layered compound BaCo1-xNixS2-y (0.05<x<0.2 and 0.05<y<0.2) exhibits an unusual first-order structural and electronic phase transition from a low-T monoclinic paramagnetic metal to a high-T tetragonal antiferromagnetic insulator around…

Triple-layered ruthenate Sr$_4$Ru$_3$O$_{10}$ shows a first-order itinerant metamagnetic transition for in-plane magnetic fields. Our experiments revealed rather surprising behavior in the low-temperature transport properties near this…

Thermal expansion, electrical resistivity, magnetization, and specific heat measurements were performed on URu$_{2-x}$Fe$_{x}$Si$_{2}$ single crystals for various values of the Fe concentration $x$ in both the hidden order (HO) and large…
