Abstract Coulomb repulsion among conduction electrons in solids hinders their motion and leads to a rise resistivity. A regime of electronic phase separation is expected at the first-order transition between correlated metal paramagnetic Mott insulator, but remains unexplored experimentally as well theoretically nearby T = 0. We approach this issue by assessing complex permittivity via dielectric spectroscopy, which provides vivid mapping deep insight into its microscopic nature. Our...
Shifting the Fermi level of celebrated $AM_3X_5$ (135) compounds into proximity flat bands strongly enhances electronic correlations and severely affects formation density waves superconductivity.

Electron-phonon coupling manifests itself in strong...
The interplay between electronic correlations, density wave orders, and magnetism gives rise to several fascinating phenomena. In recent years, kagome metals have emerged as an excellent platform for investigating these unique properties, which stem from their itinerant carriers arranged in a lattice. Here, we show that structure of the prototypical metal, Fe$_3$Sn$_2$, can be tailored by manipulating breathing distortion its lattice with external pressure. is suppressed around 15 GPa...
Kagome metals possess peculiar optical spectra consisting of contributions from free charge carriers in a Drude-type response, localized seen as strongly temperature-dependent localization peak, and, some cases, phonons displaying strong anomalies.

Polarization-dependent measurements resolve vibrational modes along E$\|a$- and $b$-axes reveal clear structural anisotropy. While $a$-axis phonons notably harden on cooling, $b$-axis phonon frequencies are almost temperature-independent. A splitting due to antiferromagnetic phase transition is observed for 180~cm$^{-1}$ mode, accompanied by a softening below $T_N$....
