The past decade has witnessed an explosion in the field of quantum materials, headlined by
the predictions and discoveries of novel Landau-symmetry-broken phases in correlated …

Cuprates exhibit exceptionally strong superconductivity. To understand why, it is essential to
elucidate the nature of the electronic interactions that cause pairing. Superconductivity …

Although copper oxide high-temperature superconductors constitute a complex and diverse
material family, they all share a layered lattice structure. This curious fact prompts the …

Competing inhomogeneous orders are a central feature of correlated electron materials,
including the high-temperature superconductors. The two-dimensional Hubbard model …

The SwissFEL X-ray Free Electron Laser (XFEL) facility started construction at the Paul
Scherrer Institute (Villigen, Switzerland) in 2013 and will be ready to accept its first users in …

Charge density modulations have been observed in all families of high–critical temperature
(T c) superconducting cuprates. Although they are consistently found in the underdoped …

High-temperature superconductivity, with transition temperatures up to≈ 134 K at ambient
pressure, occurs in layered cuprate compounds. The conducting CuO2 planes, which are …

The European XFEL delivers up to 27000 intense (> 1012 photons) pulses per second, of
ultrashort (≤ 50 fs) and transversely coherent X-ray radiation, at a maximum repetition rate …

The electronic instabilities in CsV3Sb5 are believed to originate from the V 3 d-electrons on
the kagome plane, however the role of Sb 5 p-electrons for 3-dimensional orders is largely …

The presence of different electronic orders other than superconductivity populating the
phase diagram of cuprates suggests that they might be the key to disclose the mysteries of …
