چکیده

A series of high-pressure electrical resistivity measurements on single crystals of TbTe3 reveal a complex phase diagram involving the interplay of superconducting, antiferromagnetic and charge-density-wave order. The onset of superconductivity reaches a maximum of almost 4 K (onset) near approximately 12.4 GPa.

محاسبات ابتدا به ساکن تاثیر فشار بر ساختار الکترونی و مغناطیسی ابررسانای فرومغناطیسی RuSr2GdCu2O8

We have performed a first-principle calculation of electronic structure of RuSr2GdCu2O8, a ferromagnetic-superconductor, by employing a full-potential linearized augmented plane-wave method within the density functional theory. Hydrostatic pressure applied up to 6 GPa by varying the volume of the unit cell with constant a:b:c ratio. Optimization of internal parameters showed that there exists s...

The present study deals with the experimental and theoretical approaches of LaNi5 hydrogen storage alloy. The structural, morphological and hydrogenation characterization of this sample which is synthesized by the arc melting technique were carried out by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and a homemade Sievert's type apparatus, respectively. The results showed that after several ...

Pressure induced superconductivity in pristine 1T-TiSe2.

The interplay between superconductivity and the charge-density wave (CDW) state in pure 1T-TiSe(2) is examined through a high-pressure study extending up to pressures of 10 GPa between sub-Kelvin and room temperatures. At a critical pressure of 2 GPa a superconducting phase sets in and persists up to pressures of 4 GPa. The maximum superconducting transition temperature is 1.8 K. These findings...

Role of Incommensuration in the charge density wave and superconducting states of 1T-TiSe2

A brief review of some of the most recent experiments on the charge density wave (CDW) transition in 1T-TiSe2 is presented. With increasing pressure or intercalation, the CDW can be suppressed and a superconducting (SC) phase emerges. In the pristine 1T-TiSe2, a commensurate CDW develops around 202 K. These experiments show that by tuning these external parameters like pressure, or doping, the ...

New electronic phase transitions in D - ( BEDT - TTF ) 2 KHg ( SCN ) 4

α-(BEDT-TTF)2KHg(SCN)4 is considered to be in the charge-density-wave (CDW) state below 8 K. We present new magnetoresistance data suggesting that the material undergoes a series of field-induced CDW (FICDW) transitions at pressures slightly exceeding the critical pressure P c at which the zero-field CDW state is destroyed. Further, we argue that a novel kind of FICDW transitions, entirely dete...
