Time-Reversal Symmetry Breaking in Re-Based Superconductors

Joël Mesot, Johan Juul Chang

To trace the origin of time-reversal symmetry breaking (TRSB) in Re-based superconductors, we performed comparative muon-spin rotation and relaxation (mu SR) studies of superconducting noncentrosymmetric Re0.82Nb0.18 (T-c = 8.8 K) and centrosymmetric Re (T ...

Incommensurate magnetic ordering in Cu2Te2O5X2 (X=Cl,Br) studied by single crystal neutron diffraction

Helmuth Berger, Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Joël Mesot

Polarized and unpolarized neutron-diffraction studies have been carried out on single crystals of the coupled spin tetrahedra systems Cu2Te2O5X2 (X=Cl, Br). A model of the magnetic structure associated with the propagation vectors k(') (Cl) approximate to ...

Field-Induced Quantum Soliton Lattice in a Frustrated Two-Leg Spin-1/2 Ladder

Siyuan Wang, Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Joël Mesot, Christian Rüegg, Shuang Wang

Based on high-field 31P nuclear magnetic resonance experiments and accompanying numerical calculations, it is argued that in the frustrated S=1/2 ladder compound BiCu2PO6 a field-induced soliton lattice develops above a critical field of μ0Hc1=20.96(7) T. ...

Magnetic-Field-Induced Soft-Mode Quantum Phase Transition in the High-Temperature Superconductor La1.855Sr0.145CuO4: An Inelastic Neutron-Scattering Study

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Joël Mesot, Johan Juul Chang

Inelastic neutron-scattering experiments on the high-temperature superconductor La1.855Sr0.145CuO4 reveal a magnetic excitation gap Delta that decreases continuously upon application of a magnetic field perpendicular to the CuO2 planes. The gap vanishes at ...

Structure and superconductivity in the binary Re1-xMox alloys

Joël Mesot

The binary Re1-xMox alloys, known to cover the full range of solid solutions, were successfully synthesized and their crystal structures and physical properties investigated via powder x-ray diffraction, electrical resistivity, magnetic susceptibility, and ...

Magnetic-Field-Enhanced Incommensurate Magnetic Order in the Underdoped High-Temperature Superconductor YBa2Cu3O6.45

Joël Mesot

We present a neutron-scattering study of the static and dynamic spin correlations in the underdoped high-temperature superconductor YBa2Cu3O6.45 in magnetic fields up to 15 T. The field strongly enhances static incommensurate magnetic order at low temperat ...

Tuning competing orders in La2-xSrxCuO4 cuprate superconductors by the application of an external magnetic field

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Joël Mesot, Johan Juul Chang

We report the results of a combined muon-spin rotation and neutron-scattering study on La2-xSrxCuO4 in the vicinity of the so-called 1/8 anomaly. Application of a magnetic field drives the system toward a magnetically ordered spin-density-wave state, which ...

Localized and delocalized Ti 3d carriers in LaAlO3/SrTiO3 superlattices revealed by resonant inelastic x-ray scattering

Joël Mesot, Thorsten Schmitt

The important source of interface conductivity in LaAlO3/SrTiO3 heterostructures, the Ti 3d carriers, is probed with resonant inelastic x-ray scattering at the Ti 2p(3/2) edge of epitaxially grown superlattices. We reveal unambiguously the generation of bo ...

Surface and bulk electronic structure of the strongly correlated system SmB6 and implications for a topological Kondo insulator

Joël Mesot, Jan Hugo Dil

Recent theoretical calculations and experimental results suggest that the strongly correlated material SmB6 may be a realization of a topological Kondo insulator. We have performed an angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy study on SmB6 in order to eluc ...

Spectroscopic evidence for preformed Cooper pairs in the pseudogap phase of cuprates

Joël Mesot, Martin Mansson, Johan Juul Chang

Angle-resolved photoemission on underdoped La1.895Sr0.105CuO4 reveals that in the pseudogap phase, the dispersion has two branches located above and below the Fermi level with a minimum at the Fermi momentum. This is characteristic of the Bogoliubov disper ...

Evolution from a Nodeless Gap to d(x2-y2)-Wave in Underdoped La2-xSrxCuO4

Joël Mesot, Johan Juul Chang

Using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES), it is revealed that the low-energy electronic excitation spectra of highly underdoped superconducting and nonsuperconducting La2-xSrxCuO4 cuprates are gapped along the entire underlying Fermi surface ...

Joël Mesot, Johan Juul Chang, Martin Mansson

A systematic angle-resolved photoemission study of the electronic structure of La2-xSrxCuO4 in a wide doping range is presented in this paper. In addition to the main energy band, we observed a weaker additional band, the (pi, pi) folded band, which shows ...

Correlated Decay of Triplet Excitations in the Shastry-Sutherland Compound SrCu2(BO3)(2)

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Joël Mesot

The temperature dependence of the gapped triplet excitations (triplons) in the 2D Shastry-Sutherland quantum magnet SrCu2(BO3)(2) is studied by means of inelastic neutron scattering. The excitation amplitude rapidly decreases as a function of temperature, ...

Tuning electronic correlations in transition metal pnictides: Chemistry beyond the valence count

Joël Mesot, Thorsten Schmitt

The effects of electron-electron correlations on the low-energy electronic structure and their relationship with unconventional superconductivity are central aspects in the research on iron-based pnictide superconductors. Here we use soft x-ray angle-resol ...

NMR measurements of the Si-29 spin-lattice relaxation time T-1 were used to probe the spin-1/2 random Heisenberg chain compound BaCu2(Si1-xGex)(2)O-7. Remarkable differences between the pure (x = 0) and the fully random (x = 0.5) cases are observed, indica ...
