We report a comprehensive study of transport, magnetotransport, and magnetic properties of single crystals of BaVSe3. The paramagnetic metal-ferromagnetic metal transition at 43 K was followed as a function of pressure by measuring the electrical resistivi ...
We report on electrical resistivity measurements of the anti ferromagne tic CeCoGe2.1Si0.9 Kondo lattice under hydrostatic pressures, P similar to 11 kbar. Pressure induces a quantum critical point (QCP) at P-C approximate to 6.2 kbar. Around the QCP, the ...
The discovery of high temperature superconductivity in the cuprates in 1986 has boosted the research in strongly correlated materials. One strong motivation was and stays the understanding the high-Tc phenomenon with the hope that one can ultimately engine ...
All strongly correlated materials exhibit fascinating physical properties, like Mott insulator transitions, high temperature superconductivity, Kondo and heavy fermion behavior, colossal magnetoresistance, etc. These properties make them attractive for dev ...
This thesis is devoted to a theoretical study of high-temperature superconductivity from the viewpoint of a doped Mott insulator. To this end, the square-lattice t-J model is analyzed by variational and mean-field approaches. The thesis focuses on the cons ...
Conditions for a transition from the insulator (I) to metal (M) state in the electron system of highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) have been studied by means of magnetotransport measurements in a broad temperature range (0.3–150 K). In magnetic fiel ...
By means of high-resolution angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (ARPES), we have studied the fermiology of 2H transition metal dichalcogenide polytypes TaSe2, NbSe2 and Cu0.2NbS2. The tight-binding model of the electronic structure, extracted from AR ...
The spectroscopy of quasi-one-dimensional (1D) systems has been a subject of strong interest since the first experimental observations of unusual line shapes in the early 1990s. Angle-resolved photoemission (ARPES) measurements performed with increasing ac ...
We introduce a minimal model describing the physics of classical two-dimensional (2D) frustrated Heisenberg systems, where spins order in a nonplanar way at T=0. This model, consisting of coupled trihedra (or Ising-RP3 model), encompasses Ising (chiral) de ...
The phase diagram in temperature and magnetic field of the metal-organic, two-leg, spin-ladder compound (C5H12N)(2)CuBr4 is studied by measurements of the specific heat and the magnetocaloric effect. We demonstrate the presence of an extended spin Luttinge ...
