A charge density wave (CDW) ground state is observed in polycrystalline Cu$_2$Se below 125 K, which corresponds to an energy gap of 40.9 meV and an electron-phonon coupling constant of 0.6. Due to the polycrystalline structure, the Peierls transition process has been expanded to a wide temperature range from 90 to 160 K. The Hall carrier concentration shows a continuous decrease from 2.1$times$10$^{20}$ to 1.6$times$10$^{20}$ cm$^{-3}$ in the temperature range from 160 K to 80 K, while almost unchanged above 160 K and below 90 K. After entering the CDW ground state, a wave-like fluctuation was observed in the I-V curve near 50 K, which exhibits as a periodic negative differential resistivity in an applied electric field due to the current. We also investigated the doping effect of Zn, Ni, and Te on the CDW ground state. Both Zn and Ni doped Cu$_2$Se show a CDW character with increased energy gap and electron-phonon coupling constant, but no notable Peierls transition was observed in Te doped Cu$_2$Se. Similar wave-like I-V curve was also seen in Cu$_{1.98}$Zn$_{0.02}$Se near 40 K. The regular fluctuation in $it{dc}$ I-V curve was not magnetic field sensitive, but temperature and sample size sensitive.

Cu${}_{50-x}$Zr${}_{x}$ (x = 50, 54, 60 and 66.6) polycrystalline alloys were prepared by arc-melting. The crystal structure of the ingots has been examined by X-ray diffraction. Non-equilibrium martensitic phases with monoclinic structure were detec
ted in all the alloys except Cu${}_{33.4}$Zr${}_{66.6}$. Temperature dependencies of electrical resistivity in the temperature range of T = 4 - 300 K have been measured as well as room temperature values of Hall coefficients and thermal conductivity. Electrical resistivity demonstrates anomalous behavior. At the temperatures lower than 20 K, their temperature dependencies are non-monotonous with pronounced minima. At elevated temperatures they have sufficiently non-linear character which cannot be described within framework of the standard Bloch--Gr{u}neisen model. We propose generalized Bloch--Gr{u}neisen model with variable Debye temperature which describes experimental resistivity dependencies with high accuracy. We found that both the electrical resistivity and the Hall coefficients reveal metallic-type conductivity in the Cu-Zr alloys. The estimated values of both the charge carrier mobility and the phonon contribution to thermal and electric conductivity indicate the strong lattice defects and structure disorder.
By using solid-state reactions, we successfully synthesize new oxyselenides CsV$_2$Se$_{2-x}$O (x = 0, 0.5). These compounds containing V$_2$O planar layers with a square lattice crystallize in the CeCr$_2$Si$_2$C structure with the space group of $P
4/mmm$. Another new compound V$_2$Se$_2$O which crystallizes in space group $I4/mmm$ is fabricated by topochemical deintercalation of cesium from CsV$_2$Se$_2$O powder with iodine in tetrahydrofuran(THF). Resistivity measurements show a semiconducting behavior for CsV$_2$Se$_2$O, while a metallic behavior for CsV$_2$Se$_{1.5}$O, and an insulating feature for V$_2$Se$_2$O. A charge- or spin-density wave-like anomaly has been observed at 168 K for CsV$_2$Se$_2$O and 150 K for CsV$_2$Se$_{1.5}$O, respectively. And these anomalies are also confirmed by the magnetic susceptibility measurements. The resistivity in V$_2$Se$_2$O exhibits an anomalous log(1/$T$) temperature dependence, which is similar to the case in parent phase or very underdoped cuprates indicating the involvement of strong correlation. Magnetic susceptibility measurements show that the magnetic moment per V-site in V$_2$Se$_2$O is much larger than that of CsV$_2$Se$_{2-x}$O, which again suggests the correlation induced localization effect in the former.
The anomalous Hall effect (AHE) is a non-linear Hall effect appearing in magnetic conductors, boosted by internal magnetism beyond what is expected from the ordinary Hall effect. With the recent discovery of the quantized version of the AHE, the quan
tum anomalous Hall effect (QAHE), in Cr- or V-doped topological insulator (TI) (Sb,Bi)$_2$Te$_3$ thin films, the AHE in magnetic TIs has been attracting significant interest. However, one of the puzzles in this system has been that while Cr- or V-doped (Sb,Bi)$_2$Te$_3$ and V-doped Bi$_2$Se$_3$ exhibit AHE, Cr-doped Bi$_2$Se$_3$ has failed to exhibit even ferromagnetic AHE, the expected predecessor to the QAHE, though it is the first material predicted to exhibit the QAHE. Here, we have successfully implemented ferromagnetic AHE in Cr-doped Bi$_2$Se$_3$ thin films by utilizing a surface state engineering scheme. Surprisingly, the observed ferromagnetic AHE in the Cr-doped Bi$_2$Se$_3$ thin films exhibited only positive slope regardless of the carrier type. We show that this sign problem can be explained by the intrinsic Berry curvature of the system as calculated from a tight-binding model combined with a first-principles method.
The correlated band theory implemented as a combination of the local density approximation with the exact diagonalization of the Anderson impurity model is applied to PuO$_2$. We obtain an insulating electronic structure consistent with the experimen
tal photoemission spectra. The calculations yield the band gap of 1.8 eV and a non-magnetic singlet ground state that is characterized by a non-integer filling of the plutonium $f$ shell ($n_fapprox 4.5$). Due to sizeable hybridization of the $f$ shell with the $p$ states of oxygen, the ground state is more complex than the four-electron Russell--Saunders ${}^5{rm I}_4$ manifold split by the crystal field. The inclusion of hybridization improves the agreement between the theory and experiment for the magnetic susceptibility.
Layered trigonal EuMg$_2$Bi$_2$ is reported to be a topological semimetal that hosts multiple Dirac points that may be gapped or split by the onset of magnetic order. Here, we report zero-field single-crystal neutron-diffraction and bulk magnetic sus
ceptibility measurements versus temperature $chi(T)$ of EuMg$_2$Bi$_2$ that show the intraplane ordering is ferromagnetic (Eu$^{2+},, S= 7/2$) with the moments aligned in the $ab$-plane while adjacent layers are aligned antiferromagnetically (i.e., A-type antiferromagnetism) below the Neel temperature.
