We study the effects of interaction between bosons and fermions in a Bose-Fermi mixtures loaded in an optical lattice. We concentrate on the destruction of a bosonic Mott phase driven by repulsive interaction between bosons and fermions.…
We study the density modulation of an interacting Fermi gas caused by the uniform motion of an impurity at zero temperature. For strong enough interaction among Fermi atoms, the modulation propagates thanks to the excitation of the…
We consider a one-dimensional system of electrons interacting via a short-range repulsion and coupled to phonons close to the metal-insulator transition at half filling. We argue that the metal-insulator transition can be described as a…
Systematic pressure- and temperature-dependent infrared studies on the two-dimensional organic quantum spin-liquid $\beta^{\prime}$-EtMe$_3$Sb[Pd(dmit)$_2$]$_2$ disclose the electronic and lattice evolution across the Mott insulator-metal…
We show that placing a quantum system in contact with an environment can enhance non-Fermi-liquid correlations, rather than destroy quantum effects as is typical. The system consists of two quantum dots in series with two leads; the highly…
A ferroelectric material often exhibits a soft transvers optical (TO) phonon mode which governs it phase transition. Charge coupling to this ferroelectric soft mode may further mediate emergent physical properties, including…
Metals at the brink of electronic quantum phase transitions display high-temperature superconductivity, competing orders, and unconventional charge transport, revealing strong departures from conventional Fermi liquid behavior.…
In several two-dimensional films that exhibit a magnetic field-tuned superconductor to insulator transition (SIT), stable metallic phases have been observed. Building on the `dirty boson' description of the SIT, we suggest that the metallic…
In this work we present the results of an inelastic x-ray scattering experiment detailing the behavior of the transverse acoustic [110] phonon in BaFe2As2 as a function of temperature. When cooling through the structural transition…
Using a functional renormalization group approach we show that at low temperatures and in a certain range of magnetic fields the longitudinal dynamic structure factor of quantum Heisenberg ferromagnets in dimensions $D\leq 2$ exhibits a…
Nuclear resonant inelastic x-ray scattering on quartz structured 57FePO4 as a function of pressure, up to 8 GPa reveals hardening of the low-energy phonons under applied pressures up to 1.5 GPa, followed by a large softening at 1.8 GPa upon…
In this article, I discuss W.Kohn's criterion for a metal insulator transition, within the framework of a one band Hubbard model. This and related ideas are applied to 1-dimensional Hubbard systems, and some intersting miscellaneous results…
We review the theory of second--order (ferro--)elastic phase transitions, where the order parameter consists of a certain linear combination of strain tensor components, and the accompanying soft mode is an acoustic phonon. In…
We report the boron isotope effect on the E2g phonon mode by micro-Raman spectroscopy on the ternary Mg1-xAlxB2 system, synthesized with pure isotopes 10B and 11B. The isotope coefficient on the phonon frequency is near 0.5 in the full…
We have investigated the dynamical properties of coherent phonons generated in antimony under high density photo excitation. Precise measurements and extended analysis of coherent phonon oscillations provide new insights into the process of…
We study the nature of the zero-temperature phase transition between a d-wave superconductor and a Mott insulator in two dimensions. In this ``quantum confinement transition'', spin and charge are confined to form the electron in the Mott…
We use the renormalization group method to examine the effect of phonon mediated interaction on d-wave superconductivity, as driven by spin fluctuations in a quasi-one-dimensional electron system. The influence of a tight-binding…
We review the latest developments in the field of the metal-insulator transition in strongly-correlated two-dimensional electron systems. Particular attention is given to recent discoveries of a sliding quantum electron solid and…
We show that a quantum phase transition can occur in a phonon system in the presence of dislocations. Due to the competing nature between the topological protection of the dislocation and anharmonicity, phonons can reach a quantum critical…
We report high-resolution inelastic x-ray measurements of the soft phonon mode in the charge-density-wave compound TiSe$_2$. We observe a complete softening of a transverse optic phonon at the L point, i.e. q = (0.5, 0, 0.5), at T ~…
