Molecular orbital formation and metastable short-range ordered structure in VO
Shunsuke Kitou, Akitoshi Nakano, Masato Imaizumi +3
The metal-insulator transition (MIT) in vanadium dioxide VO due to V-V dimerization has been extensively discussed for decades. While it is widely acknowledged that electron co…
Observation of local atomic displacements intrinsic to the double zigzag chain structure of 1T-MTe2 (M = V, Nb, Ta)
N. Katayama, Y. Matsuda, K. Kojima +7
We describe the existence of local distortion discovered in the synchrotron x-ray single-crystal structure analysis of layered ditelluride 1T-MTe2 (M = V, Nb, Ta). In 1T-TaTe2, the…
Real-Space Observation of Ligand Hole State in Cubic Perovskite SrFeO
Shunsuke Kitou, Masaki Gen, Yuiga Nakamura +4
An anomalously high valence state sometimes shows up in transition-metal oxide compounds. In such systems, holes tend to occupy mainly the ligand orbitals, giving rise to inter…
Single crystal growths and magnetic properties of hexagonal polar semimetals RAuGe (R = Y, Gd-Tm, and Lu)
Takashi Kurumaji, Masaki Gen, Shunsuke Kitou +4
We study structural and magnetic properties of rare-earth based semimetals RAuGe (R = Y, Gd-Tm, and Lu) using flux-grown single crystals. These compounds belong to the noncentrosym…
