Due to the similarity to BaFe2As2 and SrFe2As2 the RFe2Si2 (R=La, Y and Lu) system has been proposed as a potential candidate for a new superconducting family containing Fe-Si layers as a structural unit. Various R(Fe1-xMx)2Si2 M=Ni, Mn and Cu) materials were synthesized and measured for their magnetic properties. None of these materials is superconducting down to 5 K. Fe in RFe2Si2 is paramagnetic. A pronounced peak at 232 K was observed in the magnetization curve of YFe2Si2. 57Fe Mossbauer studies confirm the absence of any magnetic ordering at low temperatures. Similar peaks at various temperatures also appear in R(Fe1-xMx)2Si2 samples. Four independent factors affect the peak position and shift it to lower temperatures: (i) the lattice parameters, (ii) the concentration of x, (iii) the applied magnetic field, and (iv) the magnetic nature of M. The peak position is dramatically affected by the magnetic Mn dopants. It is propose that the magnetic peaks observed in RFe2Si2 and in R(Fe1-xMx)2Si2 represent a new nearly ferromagnetic Fermi liquid (NFFL) system and their nature is yet to be determined.

We report on structural and superconducting properties of La(3-x)R(x)Ni2B2N3 where La is substituted by the magnetic rare-earth elements Ce, Pr, Nd. The compounds Pr3Ni2B2N3 and Nd3Ni2B2N3 are characterized for the first time. Powder X-ray diffractio
n confirmed all samples R3Ni2B2N3 with R = La, Ce, Pr, Nd and their solid solutions to crystallize in the body centered tetragonal La3Ni2B2N3 structure type. Superconducting and magnetic properties of La(3-x)R(x)Ni2B2N3 were studied by resistivity, specific heat and susceptibility measurements. While La3Ni2B2N3 has a superconducting transition temperature Tc ~ 14 K, substitution of La by Ce, Pr, and Nd leads to magnetic pair breaking and, thus, to a gradual suppression of superconductivity. Pr3Ni2B2N3 exibits no long range magnetic order down to 2 K, Nd3Ni2B2N3 shows ferrimagnetic ordering below T_C = 17 K and a spin reorientation transition to a nearly antiferromagnetic state at 10 K.
Local lattice structures of La$_{1.85}$Sr$_{0.15}$Cu$_{1-x}$M$_x$O$_4$ (M=Mn, Ni, and Co) single crystals are investigated by polarized extended x-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS). The local lattice instability at low temperature is described by
in-plane Cu-O bond splitting. We find that substitution of Mn for Cu causes little perturbation of local lattice instability while Ni and Co substitution strongly suppresses the instability. The suppression of superconductivity by Cu-site substitution is related to the perturbation of lattice instability, indicating that local lattice instability (polaron) plays an important role in superconductivity.
Topological properties and topological superconductivity in real materials have attracted intensive experimental and theoretical attention recently. Based on symmetry analysis and first-principles electronic structure calculations, we predict that $R
$RuB$_{2}$ ($R$=Y, Lu) are not only topological superconductor (TSC) candidates, but also own the hybrid hourglass-type Dirac ring which is protected by the nonsymmorphic space group symmetry. Due to the band inversion around the time-reversal invariant $Gamma$ point in the Brillouin zone,$R$RuB$_{2}$ also have Dirac topological surface states (TSSs). More importantly, their TSSs on the (010) surface are within the band gap of bulk and cross the Fermi level, which form single Fermi surfaces. Considering the fact that both YRuB$_{2}$ and LuRuB$_{2}$ are superconductors with respective superconducting transition temperatures ($T_c$) of 7.6 K and 10.2 K, the superconducting bulks will likely induce superconductivity in the TSSs via the proximity effect. The ternary borides $R$RuB$_{2}$ may thus provide a very promising platform for studying the properties of topological superconductivity and hourglass fermions in the future experiments.
We use c-axis resistivity and magnetoresistance measurements to study the interplay between antiferromagnetic (AF) and superconducting (SC) ordering in underdoped RBa_2Cu_3O_{6+x} (R = Lu, Y) single crystals. Both orders are found to emerge from an a
nisotropic 3D metallic state, upon which antiferromagnetism opposes superconductivity by driving the doped holes towards localization. Despite the competition, the superconductivity sets in before the AF order is completely destroyed and coexists with latter in a certain range of hole doping. We find also that strong magnetic fields affect the AF-SC interplay by both suppressing the superconductivity and stabilizing the Neel order.
A new series of cubic double perovskites Ba$_2R_{2/3}$TeO$_6$ ($R$ = Y, La, Pr, Nd, Sm-Lu) was synthesized via solid state reaction. The $R^{3+}$ and Te$^{6+}$ ions are ordered on alternating octahedral sites, with the rare earth sites 2/3 occupied t
o balance the charge. The lattice parameters decrease monotonically from a = 8.5533(3) {AA} for Ba$_2$La$_{2/3}$TeO$_6$ to a = 8.3310(4) {AA} for Ba$_2$Lu$_{2/3}$TeO$_6$. The lattice parameter for $R$ = Y is close to that of Ho. Analysis of the resulting bond lengths indicates a structural relaxation around the $R$ ion site. Ba$_2$La$_{2/3}$TeO$_6$, Ba$_2$Y$_{2/3}$TeO$_6$ and Ba$_2$Lu$_{2/3}$TeO$_6$ show primarily temperature-independent magnetic susceptibility due to the lack of a local rare earth moment. For Ba$_2$Sm$_{2/3}$TeO$_6$ and Ba$_2$Eu$_{2/3}$TeO$_6$, the susceptibilities are influenced by Van Vleck-like contributions from excited state multiplets. For the remaining members, the Curie-Weiss law is followed with low-temperature deviations that can be associated with various degrees of crystalline electric field splitting. No magnetic ordering was observed down to 1.8 K in any of the compounds.
