Ultra-Low Temperature Properties Of Correlated Materials, Seyed Mohammad Ali Radmanesh Aug 2018

Ultra-Low Temperature Properties Of Correlated Materials, Seyed Mohammad Ali Radmanesh

University of New Orleans Theses and Dissertations

Abstract

After the discovery of topological insulators (TIs), it has come to be widely recognized that topological states of matter can actually be widespread. In this sense, TIs have established a new paradigm about topological materials. Recent years have seen a surge of interest in topological semimetals, which embody two different ways of generalizing the effectively massless electrons to bulk materials. Dirac and, particularly, Weyl semimetals should support several transport and optical phenomena that are still being sought in experiments. A number of promising experimental results indicate superconductivity in members of half-Hesuler semimetals which realize the mixing singlet and triplet …

Ultra-Low Temperature Measurements Of London Penetration Depth In Iron Selenide Telluride Superconductors, Andrei Diaconu

University of New Orleans Theses and Dissertations

The newly discovered iron based superconductors have captivated the attention of the scientific community due to the unusual mechanism behind their superconductivity and their promise as the next generation high temperature superconductors. After a century of superconductor research, the physical mechanism behind high temperature superconductivity is still not understood. These new materials bring renewed hope in elucidating the pairing mechanism responsible with high temperature superconductors and achieving the ultimate goal of the field, room temperature superconductivity. Consequently, a deeper understanding of the intriguing properties of iron based materials is essential.

A great deal about the pairing mechanism of Cooper electron …
