We have studied the local structure around Co in YBa$_2$(Cu$_{1-x}$Co$_x$)$_3$O$_{7-\delta}$ thin films with three different concentrations: x=0.07, 0.10, 0.17, and in a PrBa$_2$(Cu$_{1-x}$Co$_x$)$_3$O$_{7-\delta}$ thin film of…

Room temperature Co K-edge extended x-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS), x-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) including pre-edge and x-ray diffraction (XRD) studies are carried out on LaCoO3 and PrCoO3. The Co-O, Co-La/Pr and…

We have performed fluorescence x-ray absorption fine-structure (XAFS) measurements from 20-200 K on a 5000 \AA, c-axis film of YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-\delta} (YBCO) on MgO (Tc=89 K) using photons polarized perpendicular to the film. These data are…

In connection with numerous X-ray and neutron investigations of some high temperature superconductors (YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6+x}$ and related compounds) a non-trivial part of the structure factor, coming from partly disordered Cu-O-$\dots$-O-Cu…

Local structure of REOFeAs (RE=La, Pr, Nd, Sm) system has been studied as a function of chemical pressure varied due to different rare-earth size. Fe K-edge extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) measurements in the fluorescence…

X-ray diffraction studies showed that the structure of (Sr$_{1-x}$Pr$_x$)TiO$_3$ solid solutions at 300 K changes from the cubic $Pm3m$ to the tetragonal $I4/mcm$ with increasing $x$. The analysis of XANES and EXAFS spectra of the solid…

We have used the XAFS (x-ray-absorption fine structure) technique to investigate the local structure about the Cu, Ba, and Tl atoms in orthorhombic Tl-2201 with a superconducting transition temperature T$_c$=60 K. Our results clearly show…

Compelling efforts to improve the critical temperature ($T_{c}$) of superconductors have been made through high-pressure application. Understanding the underlying mechanism behind such improvements is critically important, however, much…

We use the COMPLETE data to derive new calibrations of the X-factor and the 13CO abundance within Perseus. We divide Perseus into six sub-regions. The standard X factor, X=N(H2)/W(12CO), is derived both for the whole Perseus Complex and for…

The electronic and local structural properties of CuO under pressure have been investigated by means of X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) at Cu K edge and ab-initio calculations, up to 17 GPa. The crystal structure of CuO consists of Cu…

The synthesis of SrRuO3 under high-pressure oxygen produces a nonstoichiometric form with randomly distributed vacancies on the Ru-sites, along with a significantly reduced ferromagnetic ordering temperature. In order to gain additional…

The mechanism behind superconductivity suppression induced by Pr substitutions in YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-\delta}$ (YBCO) has been a mystery since its discovery: in spite of being isovalent to Y$^{3+}$ with a small magnetic moment, it is the…

We have measured the extended x-ray absorption-fine-structure (EXAFS) at the Y-K edge of YBa_2Cu_3O_x for x=6.801, 6.947, 6.968, 6.984 at T=20-300 K. Across the underdoped-overdoped transition the Y-Cu2 pairs exhibit harmonic vibrations…

We report the planar ^{17}O NMR shift in Pr substituted YBa_{2}Cu_{3}O_{6+x}, which at x=1 exhibits a characteristic pseudogap temperature dependence, confirming that Pr reduces the concentration of mobile holes in the CuO_{2} planes. Our…

Local surface conductivity properties and surface degradation of c-axis oriented YBa2Cu3O6+x (YBCO) thin films were studied by Scanning Spreading Resistance Microscopy (SSRM). For the surface degradation studies, the YBCO surface was…

We have succeeded in preparing A-site ordered- and disordered-Y1/4Sr3/4CoO3-d with various oxygen deficiencies delta, and have made comparative study of their structural and physical properties. In the A-site ordered structure, oxygen…

Detailed magnetization and magneto-transport measurements studies are carried out to unearth the anomalous magnetism of Pr in PrCoAsO compound. The studied PrCoAsO sample is single phase and crystallized in the tetragonal structure with…

The far-infrared c-axis conductivity of flux-grown Y$_{1-x}$Pr$_{x}$Ba$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$O$_{7}$ single crystals with 0.2$\leq $x$\leq $0.5 has been studied by sepectral ellipsometry. We find that the c-axis response exhibits spectral features…

We have studied the effects of the isoelectronic substitution of Ru for Fe in polycrystalline samples of the spin density wave (SDW) material PrFeAsO. Crystal structures from powder x-ray diffraction at room temperature and transport…
