Recently we have investigated the cubic compound PrRhSn3 using the dc and ac susceptibilities and the heat capacity. We found an evidence for the cluster-glass behavior with a...

There has been a great deal of interest in non-centrosymmetric superconductivity, mainly induced by the discovery of CePt3Si. The presence or lack of inversion has important...

Superconductivity with Tc=33 K has been reported in alkali-doped polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). The compositions and structures are unknown owing to the multiphase nature and...

Our recent research of various Th-bearing systems revealed bulk superconductivity in ThIrSi3, ThIr2Si2 and ThCoSi. The critical temperatures determined from the resistivity and...

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...

We plan to study by means of zero and longitudinal field muSR the static and dynamic magnetic properties of SrZnVO(PO4)2, a prototype of the S=1/2 J1-J2 model on a square...

Multiferroic materials which exhibit both ferroelectric and (anti)ferromagnetic ordering are of great technological importance offering the potential for the design of novel...

The field of non-centrosymmetric (NCS) superconductors has gathered much attention in recent years owing to its unconventional behavior. The lack of inversion symmetry in this...

The unconventional filled skutterudite superconductor, PrPt4Ge12(Tc ~ 7.9 K), was recently discovered, for which zero field muon spin relaxation (ZF-MuSR) experiments reveal...

In the metal-organic perovskite copper guanidinium formate, correlated Jahn-Teller distortion gives rise to a 1D magnetic structure made up of Heisenberg antiferromagnetic...

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...

Noncentrosymmetric superconductors have been identified as good candidates for unconventional superconductivity. In particular, there is the possibility of Cooper pairs with...

We propose to investigate the detailed superconducting properties of the superconducting compound Re3Ta with non-centrosymmetric α-Mn structure. Due to non-centrosymmetric...

CeRhIn5 is an antiferromagnetic itinerant magnet which illustrates a temperature and pressure interplay between antiferromagnetism and superconductivity. Recently, it has been...

A new class of materials called Topological Crystalline Insulator(TCI) has been recently proposedtheoretically and subsequently, SnTe has been discovered to exhibit all the...

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...

Topological insulators are exotic field of study because of presence of fully gapped bulk states and gap less surface states protected by Time Reversal Symmetry (TRS)....

The binary ruthenium pnictides RuAs and RuP exhibit metal-insulator (MI) transition below 200 K and 270 K, respectively, and show an evidence of pseudogap formation in their...

In this proposal we propose to investigate the superconducting ground state of the non-centrosymmetric superconductor Ru7B3. Controversy exists over the nature of the...

A magnetic response of the alkali-metal superoxides comes from the p-orbital S = 1/2 spins of anionic O2- molecules. As the O2- molecules are highly reorientable and the...
