Muon spin rotation study on Pr2T3Ge5 (T = Rh and Pd)
Recently we have investigated Pr2Pd3Ge5 and Pr2Rh3Ge5 compounds which form in the orthorhombic structure. Pr2Pd3Ge5 exhibits two magnetic transitions at TN1 = 7.5 K and TN2 =... -
Investigating the superconducting and magnetic properties of two new supercon...
Recently, Eckert and co-authors synthesised osmium based two superconductors, NbOsSi and TaOsSi, and found that these compounds exhibit superconductivity below a transition... -
Superconductivity in the spinels: Cu(Ir_{1-x}Pt_x)2Se4 and CuRh2S4
Spinels, which have formula AB2X4 and crystallise in the cubic space group, exhibit a rich landscape of structural, magnetic and electronic properties. However, superconducting... -
Time reversal symmetry breaking in superconducting PrOs4Sb12 and its alloys
In 2005 we carried out muon spin relaxation (muSR) experiments in Pr(Os1-xRux)4Sb12 alloys at KEK, Tsukuba, Japan, to investigate the time-reversal symmetry breaking found in... -
Investigating Superconductivity and charge density wave in 2H-PdxTaSe2
The role and interplay of the different charge degrees of freedom remain a central issue in many unconventional superconductors. PdxTaSe2 series is an ideal system to study such... -
Broken Time Reversal Symmetry in Superconducting (Pr, Ce)Pt4Ge12 alloys
The unconventional filled skutterudite superconductor, PrPt4Ge12(Tc ~ 7.9 K), was recently discovered, for which zero field muon spin relaxation (ZF-MuSR) experiments reveal... -
Ir-based d-band derived superconductivity in RIr3 (R= Ce, La)
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... -
New BiCh2-based layered superconductor La1-xCexOBiSSe: A puzzling system in c...
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... -
Valence bond solid in the charge ordered state of Rb4O6
Open p-shell anionic mixed-valence compounds have been recently proposed as intriguing model systems for disentangling the complex interplay of charge, lattice, orbital, and... -
Fluctuating stripes in an insulating hole-doped antiferromagnet
In a recent letter to Nature, Boothroyd and coworkers have shown that the well known hour-glass spectrum, previously observed in some cuprate materials, occurs in a hole doped... -
The Destruction of Superconductivity by Inter-Band Scattering in (Lu1-xYx)2Fe...
This proposal plans to investigate the destruction of superconductivity by inter-band scattering in Lu_2Fe_3Si_5 doped by Y and Dy. Recent muon spin rotation studies have shown...
