The magnetic structure of the $zigzag$ chain family Na$_{x}$Ca$_{1-x}$V$_2$O$_4$ determined by muon-spin rotation

We present muon-spin rotation measurements on polycrystalline samples of the complete family of the antiferromagnetic (AF) $zigzag$ chain compounds, Na$_x$Ca$_{1-x}$V$_2$O$_4$. In this family, we explore the magnetic properties from the metallic NaV$_2$O$_4$ to the insulating CaV$_2$O$_4$. We find a critical $x_c(\sim0.833)$ which separates the low and high Na-concentration dependent transition temperature and its magnetic ground state. In the $x x_c$ compounds, multiple sub-phases appear with temperature and $x$. Based on the muon data obtained in zero external magnetic field, a careful dipolar field simulation was able to reproduce the muon behavior and indicates a modulated helical incommensurate spin structure of the metallic AF phase. The incommensurate modulation period obtained by the simulation agrees with that determined by neutron diffraction.

From Mott insulator to ferromagnetic metal: a pressure study of Ca$_{2}$RuO$_{4}$

We show that the pressure-temperature phase diagram of the Mott insulator Ca$_{2}$RuO$_{4}$ features a metal-insulator transition at 0.5GPa: at 300K from paramagnetic insulator to paramagnetic quasi-two-dimensional metal; at $T \leq$ 12K from antiferromagnetic insulator to ferromagnetic, highly anisotropic, three-dimensional metal. % We compare the metallic state to that of the structurally related p-wave superconductor Sr$_{2}$RuO$_{4}$, and discuss the importance of structural distortions, which are expected to couple strongly to pressure.

Role of two-dimensional electronic state in superconductivity in La$_{2-x}$Sr$_{x}$CuO$_{4}$

We have measured out-of-plane resistivity $ρ_c$ for La$_{2-x}$Sr$_{x}$CuO$_{4}$ under anisotropic pressure. c-axis compression, which decreases $ρ_c$, reduces $T_{\rm c}$ drastically, whereas c-axis extention, which increases $ρ_c$, enhances $T_{\rm c}$ from 38K at ambient pressure to 51.6K at 8GPa. We find that the variation of $T_{\rm c}$ scales as a function of $ρ_c$, and that the c-axis pressure coefficient is much stronger than the ab-axis one. These imply that $T_{\rm c}$ depends primarily on the interlayer, rather than the in-plane, lattice parameter.
