Ab Initio Electron-Phonon Interactions in Correlated Electron Systems

Nicola Marzari, Iurii Timrov, Matteo Cococcioni, Andrea Floris

Electron-phonon (e-ph) interactions are pervasive in condensed matter, governing phenomena such as transport, superconductivity, charge-density waves, polarons, and metal-insulator transitions. First-principles approaches enable accurate calculations of e- ...

Tunneling processes through magnetic impurities on superconducting surfaces: Yu-Shiba-Rusinov states and the Josephson effect

Haonan Huang

Magnetic impurities generate a wealth of phenomena on surfaces. On metals, conducting electrons screen the magnetic moment giving rise to the Kondo effect. On superconductors, the Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (YSR) states emerge inside the superconducting gap due to t ...

From quantum spin chains to square lattice Heisenberg anti-ferromagnets

Noore Elahi Shaik

This thesis presents a theoretical study of the Heisenberg model on a two dimensional lattice with asymmetric couplings along x and y directions. By gradually varying the coupling along y-direction we traverse the 1D, quasi 1D and 2D domains of this model. ...

Kondo lattice excitation observed using resonant inelastic x-ray scattering at the YbM5 edge

Marco Grioni, Thorsten Schmitt, Marco Guarise

We present a study of the resonant inelastic scattering response of YbInCu4 excited at the tender YbM5 x-ray edge. In the high-temperature, paramagnetic phase, we observe a multiplet structure which can be understood at an ionic level. Upon cooling through ...

Non-Zhang-Rice Singlet Character of the First Ionization State of T-CuO

Simon Karl Moser

We argue that tetragonal CuO (T-CuO) has the potential to finally settle long-standing modeling issues for cuprate physics. We compare the one-hole quasiparticle (qp) dispersion of T-CuO to that of cuprates, in the framework of the strongly correlated (U-d ...

Spin and orbital disordering by hole doping in Pr1-xCaxVO3

Philip Pattison

High-resolution powder x-ray diffraction and single-crystal neutron diffraction were used to investigate the crystal structure and magnetic ordering of the compound Pr1-xCax VO3 (0

Magnons in tetragonal CuO

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Frédéric Mila, Marco Grioni, Thorsten Schmitt, Simon Karl Moser, Bastien Dalla Piazza, Sara Fatale, Noore Elahi Shaik

We investigate by resonant inelastic x-ray scattering the magnetic excitations in thin films of tetragonal CuO. We identify a spin wave excitation, dispersing on two cupratelike antiferromagnetic sublattices. Its energy at the boundary of the Brillouin zon ...

Magnetic field, frequency and temperature dependence of complex conductance of ultrathin La1.65Sr0.45CuO4/La2CuO4 films and the organic superconductors kappa-(BEDT-TTF)(2)Cu[N(CN)(2)]Br

Davor Pavuna, Guy Joseph Günter Dubuis, Ivan Bozovic, Xi He

We used atomic-layer molecular beam epitaxy (ALL-MBE) to synthesize bilayer films of a cuprate metal (La1.65Sr0.45CuO4, LSCO) and a cuprate insulator (La2CuO4, LCO), in which interface superconductivity occurs in a layer that is just one-half unit cell thi ...

Optical properties of V2O3 in its whole phase diagram

Vanadium sesquioxide V2O3 is considered a textbook example of Mott-Hubbard physics. In this paper, we present an extended optical study of its whole temperature/doping phase diagram as obtained by doping the pure material with M = Cr or Ti atoms (V1-x M-x) ...

Sc2Ga2CuO7: A possible quantum spin liquid near the percolation threshold

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Paul Gregory Freeman

Sc2Ga2CuO7 (SGCO) crystallizes in a hexagonal structure (space group: P63/mmc), which can be seen as an alternating stacking of single and double triangular layers. Combining neutron, x-ray, and resonant x-ray diffraction, we establish that the single tria ...
