We present a systematic study of both the temperature and frequency dependence optical response in TaAs, material that has recently been realized to host Weyl semimetal state. Our reveals conductivity TaAs features narrow Drude alongside conspicuous linear on frequency. The width peak decreases upon cooling, following $T^{2}$ which is expected for semimetals. Two components with distinct slopes dominate 5-K conductivity. A comparison between our experimental results theoretical calculations...

Strong coupling between discrete phonon and continuous electron-hole pair excitations can give rise to a pronounced asymmetry in the line shape, known as Fano resonance. This effect has been observed variety of systems, such stripe-phase nickelates, graphene high-$T_{c}$ superconductors. Here, we reveal explicit evidence for strong an infrared-active $A_1$ electronic transitions near Weyl points (Weyl fermions) through observation resonance recently discovered semimetal TaAs. The resultant...

Multicomponent alloying has displayed extraordinary potential for producing exceptional structural and functional materials. However, the synthesis of single-phase, multi-principal covalent compounds remains a challenge. Here, we present diffusion-controlled strategy realization transition metal carbides (MPTMCs) with single face-centered cubic phase. The increased interfacial diffusion promoted by addition nonstoichiometric compound leads to rapid formation phase at much lower sintering...

The optical properties of ${\mathrm{Ba}}_{0.6}{\mathrm{K}}_{0.4}{\mathrm{Fe}}_{2}{\mathrm{As}}_{2}$ have been determined in the normal state for a number temperatures over wide frequency range. Two Drude terms, representing two groups carriers with different scattering rates ($1/\ensuremath{\tau}$), well describe real part conductivity ${\ensuremath{\sigma}}_{1}(\ensuremath{\omega})$. A ``broad'' component results an incoherent background $T$-independent $1/{\ensuremath{\tau}}_{b}$, while...

Abstract The discovery of electrides, in particular, inorganic electrides where electrons substitute anions, has inspired striking interests the systems that exhibit unusual electronic and catalytic properties. So far, however, experimental studies such are largely restricted to ambient conditions, unable understand their interactions between electron localizations geometrical modifications under external stimuli, e.g., pressure. Here, pressure‐induced structural evolutions Ca 2 N by situ...

Temperature- or pressure-driven n–p conduction-type switching has been described as an emerging phenomenon for potential applications transistors, switches, and memory devices. The key challenge in the development of such materials is to establish maneuverable controllable methods achieve easy convertibility nonvolatility. Herein, we report first example rewritable pressure temperature dual-controlled marcasite-type CrSb2. At room temperature, CrSb2 exhibits unexcepted conductivity-type...

We show results on the vortex core dissipation through current-voltage measurements under applied pressure and magnetic field in superconducting phase of CeCoIn$_5$. find that as soon system becomes superconducting, resistivity increases sharply temperature decrease. The sharp increase flux flow is due to quasiparticle scattering critical antiferromagnetic fluctuations. strength fluctuations below transition suggests magnetism complimentary superconductivity therefore must be considered...

The magnetic properties of CaCo$_{2}$As$_{2}$ single crystal was systematically studied by using dc magnetization and torque measurements. A paramagnetic to antiferromagnetic transition occurs at $T_N$ = 74 K with Co spins being aligned parallel the c axis. For $H \parallel c$, a field-induced spin-flop observed below from inferred detailed analysis torque. Finally, we summarize phase diagram based on our results in \emph{H-T} plane.

The half-Heusler compounds YPdBi and TbPdBi, while having a similar band structure, exhibit different magnetic properties. is diamagnet, TbPdBi shows antiferromagnetic order below 5.5 K. Both are superconductors with ${T}_{c}\ensuremath{\approx}1$ K for ${T}_{c}\ensuremath{\approx}1.75$ TbPdBi. Such contrast in properties between these two opens question about the effects of structure or correlations on superconductivity. Using combination tunnel diode oscillator commercial dilution...

Anisotropy is the key to understanding iron-based superconductors, which usually have quasi-two-dimensional layered structures.

Two magnetic-field-induced quantum critical behaviors were recently discovered in two dimensional electron gas (2DEG) at LaTiO3/SrTiO3 interface and interpreted by disordered superconducting puddles coupled through 2DEG. In this scenario, the 2DEG is proposed to undergo a spontaneous phase separation breaks up into locally metallic matrix. However, as inhomogeneous only illative, proposal still lacks direct experimental demonstration. Here, we artificially construct puddles-2DEG hybrid...

The strongly correlated electron fluids in high temperature cuprate superconductors demonstrate an anomalous linear (T) dependent resistivity behavior, which persists to a wide range without exhibiting saturation. As cooling down, those lose the and condense into superfluid. However, origin of linear-T behavior its relationship superconductivity remain mystery. Here we report universal relation [Formula: see text], bridges slope linear-T-dependent (dρ/dT) London penetration depth λ L at zero...
