Very recently Sato et al., JPSJ 2018 have investigated superconductivity in the single crystals of CeIr3 (Tc = 3.4 K, which is highest among Ce compounds), which shows a weak...

CeCu2Si2 was the first heavy fermion superconductor and unlike those previously discovered, which were well explained by BCS theory, CeCu2Si2 is an unconventional...

Superconductivity and the charge density wave (CDW) are two very different cooperative electronic phenomena. However, both occur because of Fermi surface instabilities and...

Rare-earth based geometrically frustrated magnets represent a promising new platform for the search of enigmatic quantum spin liquids. Here, the entanglement of spin and orbital...

The quantum spin liquid (QSL) is a long-standing attractive topic in condensed matter physics due to its tight relation to exotic properties such as high temperature...

Layered superconductors have been attracted substantial attention since the discovery of the cuprate and Fe-based high-Tc superconductors due to the diversity in their crystal...

FeSe1-xSx is an important model system for investigating the relationship between superconductivity and nematicity. The nematicity can be suppressed systematically by the...

Systems that exhibit a high degree of anisotropy have been attracting considerable attention due to unique physical properties. Recently three superconductors (SC), BaIr2Ge7,...

Low-dimensional quantum magnetism continues to be of great theoretical and experimental interest, as reduced dimensionality supports strong quantum fluctuations which can result...

In the layered iron-based superconductor YFe2Ge2, a high Sommerfeld ratio of order 100 mJ/mol K^2 and a T^3/2 temperature dependence of the electrical resistivity at low...

We plan to investigate Na2IrO3 samples with a partial substitution of Na by means of a transition metal element (the cases of TM = Co, Ni, Cu and Zn will be considered). The...

Cr-based superconductors provide a playground to understand the pairing mechanism in unconventional superconductor as they are strong candidate for multiband triplet pairing...

Recently, a new family of ternary platinum phosphide superconductors have been synthesised with the chemical formula APt3P (A = Sr, Ca, and La, with Tc’s of 8.4, 6.6, and 1.5 K,...

NbxBi2Se3 is a potential topological superconductor candidate as it preserve Dirac surface dispersion and also superconducting at the same time. It belongs to the Eu...

A unique characteristic of the specific complex order parameters in noncentrosymmetric (NCS) superconductors (SCs) is time-reversal symmetry breaking (TRSB). The intermetallic...

In order to explore quantum spin ice physics, we wish to focus on the non-Kramers Pr-based pyrochlores with general formula Pr2M2O7 (M =Sn, Zr, Hf). There is a recent...

The intermetallic family R5T4 (R = rare earth, T = Si or Ge) exhibit a wide range of magnetic phenomena (eg., magnetic order, GMR, and enhanced magnetocaloric effect) which are...

A new layered iridate material, Cu2IrO3, has been fabricated. This material is isostructural with the much-studied Na2IrO3 and has a nearly ideal honeycomb structure that should...

The noncentrosymmetric half-Heusler semimetals RTBi (R=rare earth, T=Pt, Pd) have recently been proposed, according to electronic structure calculations, as plausible 3D...

We have recently succeeded to synthesize pure-phase of K2CuCl2SO4 and Na2CuCl2SO4. In addition, we succeeded to grow the large single crystals (~ 10×10×10 mm3). K2CuCl2SO4 is a...
