The magnetic, electric and thermal properties of the ($Ln_{1-y}$Y$_{y}$)$_{0.7}$Ca$_{0.3}$CoO$_3$ perovskites ($Ln$~=~Pr, Nd) were investigated down to very low temperatures. The main attention was given to a peculiar metal-insulator…
The electronic structures of the metallic and insulating phases of the alloy series Ca(2-x)Sr(x)RuO4 (0 <= x <= 2) are calculated using LDA, LDA+U and Dynamical Mean-Field Approximation methods. In the end members the groundstate…
Sr$_2$IrO$_4$ is an extensively studied spin-orbit coupling induced insulator with antiferromagnetic ground state. The delicate balance between competing energy scales plays crucial role for its low temperature phase, and the route of…
We have explored the critical metal-insulator phenomena for pyrochlore-type $R_2$Ir$_2$O$_7$, in which electron correlation strength and magnetic configuration are systematically controlled by varying the average rare-earth ionic radius…
We present measurements of the optical spectra on single crystals of spinel-type compound \cis. This material undergoes a sharp metal-insulator transition at 230 K. Upon entering the insulating state, the optical conductivity shows an…
X-ray and electron diffraction measurements on the metal-insulator (M-I) transition compound PrRu$_4$P$_{12}$ have revealed the emergence of a periodic ordering of charge density around the Pr atoms. It is found that the ordering is…
Optical conductivity spectra of cubic pyrochlore $Y_{2-x} Bi_x Ru_2 O_7$ (0.0$\leq ${\it x}$\leq $2.0) compounds are investigated. As a metal-insulator transition (MIT) occurs around {\it x}$=$0.8, large spectral changes are observed. With…
Over twenty years ago Alexei Abrikosov [A.A. Abrikosov, Metal-insulator transition in layered cuprates (SDW model), Physica C: Supercond. Vol. 391, 2, 147-159 (2003)] considered the Spin-Density-Waves (SDW) model for the metal-insulator…
Doping Bi2Sr2Ca1Cu2O8+y with Co causes a superconductor-insulator transition. We study correlations between changes in the electrical resistivity RHOab(T) and the electronic bandstructure using identical single crystalline samples. For…
X-ray absorption spectroscopy measurements in Pr0.5Ca0.5CoO3 and (Pr,Y)0.55Ca0.45CoO3 compositions reveal that the valence of praseodymium ions is stable and essentially +3 (Pr [4f 2]) in the metallic state, but abruptly changes when…
We address the concomitant metal-insulator transition (MIT) and antiferromagnetic ordering in the novel pyrochlore iridate Eu2Ir2O7 by combining x-ray absorption spectroscopy, x-ray and neutron diffractions and density functional theory…
Achieving fundamental understanding of insulator-to-metal transitions (IMTs) in strongly correlated systems and their persistent and reversible control via nonequilibrium drive are prime targets of current condensed matter research.…
We sought the origin of the metal-insulator transition in Sr2-xLaxCoO4, using electron-correlation corrected density functional calculations. Our results show that Sr2CoO4 is in an intermediate-spin (IS) state and a strong Co4+ 3d-O 2p…
Insulator-to-metal transition in Ca$_{2}$RuO$_{4}$ has drawn keen attention because of its sensitivity to various stimulation and its potential controllability. Here, we report a direct observation of Fermi surface, which emerges upon…
BaIrO3 is a magnetic insulator driven by the spin-orbit interaction (SOI), whereas BaRuO3 is a paramagnet and exhibits a crossover from a metallic to an insulating regime. Our investigation of structural, magnetic, transport and thermal…
Superconductivity in high temperature superconductors is achieved by introducing charge carriers into cuprate insulators containing CuO$_2$ planes. Perturbation in these CuO$_2$ planes suppresses superconductivity by strongly affecting the…
The effect of Pr substitution on the superconductivity and interlayer coupling of Bi2212 system is investigated. Magnetic and transport measurements were performed for purposes of characterization. The superconducting transition temperature…
The rare earth metal praseodymium (Pr) transforms from the d-fcc crystal structure (Pr-III) to {$\alpha$}-U one (Pr-IV) at 20 GPa with a large volume collapse (${\rm\Delta} V/V$ = 0.16), which is associated with the valence change of the Pr…
We have investigated the electronic structure of polycrystalline Ca$_2$FeReO$_6$ using photoemission spectroscopy and band-structure calculations within the local-density approximation+$U$ (LDA+$U$) scheme. In valence-band photoemission…
In this paper, the effects produced by the iron substitutions in the (Y0.9Ca0.1)Ba2Cu4-xFexO8 system on the superconducting and structural properties are studied. The Rietveld fit of the crystal structure and Mossbauer spectroscopy results…
