The copper substituted lead oxyapatite, Pb$_{10-x}$Cu$_{x}$(PO$_{3.92(4)}$)$_{6}$O$_{0.96(3)}$ (x=0.94(6)) was studied using neutron and x-ray diffraction and neutron spectroscopy techniques. The crystal structure of the main phase of our…
Compact solid discharge products enable energy storage devices with high gravimetric and volumetric energy densities, but solid deposits on active surfaces can disturb charge transport and induce mechanical stress. In this Letter we develop…
We report $^{139}$La and $^{63}$Cu NMR investigation of the successive charge order, spin order, and superconducting transitions in super-oxygenated La$_2$CuO$_{4+y}$ single crystal with stage-4 excess oxygen order at $T_{stage}\simeq 290$…
Energy levels and fine-structure intervals of the $1s2l2l'$ core-excited states are calculated for ions along the Li isoelectronic sequence from argon to uranium. The calculation is performed by the relativistic configuration-interaction…
We undertake a detailed high-resolution diffraction study of a novel plain band insulator, La$_2$MgO$_4$, which may be viewed as a structural surrogate system of the undoped end-member of the high-T$_c$ superconductors,…
We present an x-ray absorption study of the oxidation states of transition-metal-ions of LiMnO2 and its related materials, widely used as cathodes in Li-ion batteries. The comparison between the obtained spectrum and the…
We perform a simplified analysis of finite temperature properties of the generalized Falicov-Kimball model with Hund coupling. The model is studied on the square lattice for fixed values of \emph{f-electron} and \emph{d-electron} densities…
Nickelate materials offer diverse functionalities for energy and computing applications. Lithium nickel oxide (LiNiO$_2$) is an archetypal layered nickelate, but the electronic structure of this correlated material is not yet fully…
We investigate theoretically charge ordered states on the anisotropic triangular lattice characteristic of the theta-(BEDT-TTF)_2 X materials. Using exact diagonalization studies, we establish that the charge order (CO) pattern corresponds…
We have studied the dielectric responses of the layered cobalt oxysulfide Sr$_2$Cu$_2$CoO$_2$S$_2$ with the CoO$_2$ square-planes. With decreasing temperature below the N\'eel temperature, the resistivity increases like a semiconductor, and…
Lithium-intercalated layered transition-metal oxides, LixTMO2, brought about a paradigm change in rechargeable batteries in recent decades and show promise for use in memristors, a type of device for future neural computing and on-chip…
Given increasing energy storage demands and limited natural resources of Li, K-ion batteries (KIBs) could be promising next-generation systems having natural abundance, similar chemistry and energy density. Here, we have investigated the…
We investigate the charge-order transition at zero temperature in a two-leg Hubbard ladder with additional nearest-neighbor Coulomb repulsion V using the Density Matrix Renormalization Group technique. We consider electron densities between…
The low-temperature (LT) superstructure of $\alpha'$-NaV$_2$O$_5$ was determined by synchrotron radiation x-ray diffraction. Below the phase transition temperature associated with atomic displacement and charge ordering at 34K, we observed…
The structural features of the charge ordering states in LuFe2O4 are characterized by in-situ cooling TEM observations from 300K down to 20K. Two distinctive structural modulations, a major q1= (1/3, 1/3, 2) and a weak q2=q1/10 + (0, 0,…
A new electron-doped superconductor Li_x_Sr_2_CuO_2_Br_2_ with x = 0.15 has successfully been synthesized by an electrochemical Li-intercalation technique. The magnetic susceptibility shows superconductivity of bulk with the superconducting…
The rechargeable aprotic Li-air (O2) battery is a promising potential technology for next generation energy storage, but its practical realization still faces many challenges. In contrast to the standard Li-O2 cells, which cycle via the…
We study the structural changes occurring in the isotropic phase of the C$_{12}$=EO$_6$/H$_2$O lyotropic mixture (up to 35% surfactant weight concentration) upon increasing the concentration and temperature, from small individual micelles…
Spin-state ordering - a periodic pattern of ions with different spin-state configurations along a crystal lattice - is a rare phenomenon, and its possible interrelation with other electronic degrees of freedom remains little explored. Here…
In high temperature copper oxides superconductors, a novel magnetic order associated with the pseudogap phase has been identified in two different cuprate families over a wide region of temperature and doping. We here report the observation…
