The low-temperature structure of A1C60 (A=K, Rb) is an ordered array of polymerized C60 chains, with magnetic properties that suggest a non-metallic ground state. We study the paramagnetic state of this phase using first-principles…
133Cs and 13C-NMR have been used to study the electronic properties of the polymerized phase of CsC60 at ambient and under hydrostatic pressure. The salient result of this study is the finding of fluctuations in the local field at 133Cs…
Alkali metals display unexpected properties at high pressure, including emergence of low symmetry crystal structures, that appear to occur due to enhanced electronic correlations among the otherwise nearly-free conduction electrons. We…
The infrared- and Raman-active vibrational modes of C60 were measured in the various structural states of Rb1C60. According to earlier studies, Rb1C60 has an $fcc$ structure at temperatures above ~100C, a linear chain polymer orthorhombic…
The structural phase transition in hexagonal BaMnO$_3$ occurring at $T_c$=130 K was studied in ceramic samples using electron and X-ray diffraction, second harmonic generation as well as by dielectric and lattice dynamic spectroscopies. The…
Recently, Arcon et al. reported ESR studies of the polymer phase (PP) of Na_{2}Rb_{0.3}Cs_{0.7}C_{60} fulleride. It was claimed that this phase is a quasi-one-dimensional metal above 45 K with a spin-gap below this temperature and has…
The electronic structure of quasi-one-dimensional superconductor K$_2$Cr$_3$As$_3$ is studied through systematic first-principles calculations. The ground state of K$_2$Cr$_3$As$_3$ is paramagnetic but very close to a ferromagnetic…
Band theory predicts both K3C60 and K4C60 to be metals; various experimental probes show that while K3C60 is indeed metallic, K4C60 appears to be insulating. The standard view of this apparent failure of the single-particle picture is that…
Competing magnetically ordered structures in polymerized orthorhombic A1C60 are studied. A mean-field theory for the equilibrium phases is developed using an Ising model and a classical Heisenberg model to describe the competition between…
We present a study on the structural, spectroscopic, conducting and magnetic properties of Mg5C60, a two dimensional (2D) fulleride polymer. The polymer phase is stable up to the exceptionally high temperature of 823 K. Infrared and Raman…
We study the electronic and magnetic structures of the newly-discovered compound KCr$_3$As$_3$. The non-magnetic state has five Fermi surface sheets involving respectively three quasi-one-dimensional and two three-dimensional energy bands.…
The magnetic ground state of (Sr$_{1-x}$Ca$_x$)$_3$Ru$_2$O$_7$ (0 $\leq x \leq$ 1) is complex, ranging from an itinerant metamagnetic state (0 $\leq x <$ 0.08), to an unusual heavy-mass, nearly ferromagnetic (FM) state (0.08 $< x <$ 0.4),…
Empirical evidence in heavy fermion, pnictide, and other systems suggests that unconventional superconductivity appears associated to some form of real-space electronic order. For the cuprates, despite several proposals, the emergence of…
A direct numerical simulation of the three-dimensional elektrokinetic instability near a charge selective surface (electric membrane, electrode, or system of micro-/nanochannels) is carried out and analyzed. A special finite-difference…
We report a comprehensive investigation of the quasi-one-dimensional spin-chain compound Ca3CoIrO6 (CCIO) using a combination of structural, magnetic, thermodynamic, transport, Raman, and dielectric measurements. Temperature-dependent…
The stability and electronic structure of a single monatomic Al wire has been studied using the ab initio pseudopotential method. The Al wire undergoes two structural rearrangements under compression, i.e., zigzag configurations at angles…
By systematic first-principles calculations, we study the electronic structure and magnetic property of SrCrO$_3$. Our results suggest that SrCrO$_3$ is a weakly correlated antiferromagnetic (AF) metal, a very rare situation in…
Quasi-one-dimensional RbMn$_{6}$Bi$_{5}$, the first pressure-induced ternary Mn-based superconductor, exhibits a phase diagram analogous to those of cuprate and iron-based superconductors, with superconductivity neighboring…
Cs$_3$C$_{60}$ in the A15 structure is an antiferromagnet at ambient pressure in contrast with other superconducting trivalent fullerides. Superconductivity is recovered under pressure and reaches the highest critical temperature of the…
A theoretical study proposes the atomic configuration of electron-beam irradiated C$_{60}$ thin films. We examined the electronic structure and electron-transport properties of the C$_{60}$ clusters using density-functional calculations and…
