Singular charge fluctuations at a magnetic quantum critical point
L. Prochaska, X. Li, D. C. MacFarland +12
Strange metal behavior is ubiquitous to correlated materials ranging from cuprate superconductors to bilayer graphene. There is increasing recognition that it arises from physics b…
Nanostructured clathrates and clathrate-based nanocomposites
R. Christian, M. Ikeda, G. Lientschnig +13
Intermetallic clathrates are candidate materials for thermoelectric applications above room temperature. Here we explore whether their intrinsically low lattice thermal conductivit…
Kondo-like phonon scattering in thermoelectric clathrates
M. Ikeda, H. Euchner, X. Yan +9
Crystalline solids are generally known as excellent heat conductors, amorphous materials or glasses as thermal insulators. It has thus come as a surprise that certain crystal struc…
Kondo Insulator to Semimetal Transformation Tuned by Spin-Orbit Coupling
S. Dzsaber, L. Prochaska, A. Sidorenko +6
Recent theoretical studies of topologically nontrivial electronic states in Kondo insulators have pointed to the importance of spin-orbit coupling (SOC) for stabilizing these state…
