The interplay between superconductivity and charge density waves (CDW) in $H$-NbSe2 is not fully understood despite decades of study. Artificially introduced disorder can tip the delicate balance between two competing forms of long-range order, and reveal the underlying interactions that give rise to them. Here we introduce disorders by electron irradiation and measure in-plane resistivity, Hall resistivity, X-ray scattering, and London penetration depth. With increasing disorder, $T_{textrm{c}}$ varies nonmonotonically, whereas $T_{textrm{CDW}}$ monotonically decreases and becomes unresolvable above a critical irradiation dose where $T_{textrm{c}}$ drops sharply. Our results imply that CDW order initially competes with superconductivity, but eventually assists it. We argue that at the transition where the long-range CDW order disappears, the cooperation with superconductivity is dramatically suppressed. X-ray scattering and Hall resistivity measurements reveal that the short-range CDW survives above the transition. Superconductivity persists to much higher dose levels, consistent with fully gapped superconductivity and moderate interband pairing.

One of the central issues in the recent study of cuprate superconductors is the interplay of charge order with superconductivity. Here the interplay of charge order with superconductivity in cuprate superconductors is studied based on the kinetic-ene
rgy-driven superconducting (SC) mechanism by taking into account the intertwining between the pseudogap and SC gap. It is shown that the appearance of the Fermi pockets is closely associated with the emergence of the pseudogap. However, the distribution of the spectral weight of the SC-state quasiparticle spectrum on the Fermi arc, or equivalently the front side of the Fermi pocket, and back side of Fermi pocket is extremely anisotropic, where the most part of the spectral weight is located around the tips of the Fermi arcs, which in this case coincide with the hot spots on the electron Fermi surface (EFS). In particular, as charge order in the normal-state, this EFS instability drives charge order in the SC-state, with the charge-order wave vector that is well consistent with the wave vector connecting the hot spots on the straight Fermi arcs. Furthermore, this charge-order state is doping dependent, with the charge-order wave vector that decreases in magnitude with the increase of doping. Although there is a coexistence of charge order and superconductivity, this charge order antagonizes superconductivity. The results from the SC-state dynamical charge structure factor indicate the existence of a quantitative connection between the low-energy electronic structure and collective response of the electron density. The theory also shows that the pseudogap and charge order have a root in common, they and superconductivity are a natural consequence of the strong electron correlation.
We present a detailed study of the temperature (T) and magnetic field (H) dependence of the electronic density of states (DOS) at the Fermi level, as deduced from specific heat and Knight shift measurements in underdoped YBa2Cu3Oy. We find that the D
OS becomes field-independent above a characteristic field H_{DOS} and that the H_{DOS}(T) line displays an unusual inflection near the onset of the long range 3D charge-density wave order. The unusual S-shape of H_{DOS}(T) is suggestive of two mutually-exclusive orders that eventually establish a form of cooperation in order to coexist at low T. On theoretical grounds, such a collaboration could result from the stabilisation of a pair-density wave state, which calls for further investigations in this region of the phase diagram
Besides superconductivity, copper-oxide high temperature superconductors are susceptible to other types of ordering. We use scanning tunneling microscopy and resonant elastic x-ray scattering measurements to establish the formation of charge ordering
in the high-temperature superconductor Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+x. Depending on the hole concentration, the charge ordering in this system occurs with the same period as those found in Y-based or La-based cuprates, and displays the analogous competition with superconductivity. These results indicate the similarity of charge organization competing with superconductivity across different families of cuprates. We observe this charge ordering to leave a distinct electron-hole asymmetric signature (and a broad resonance centered at +20 meV) in spectroscopic measurements, thereby indicating that it is likely related to the organization of holes in a doped Mott insulator.
Time-reversal symmetry breaking (TRSB) in UTe2 was inferred from observations of a spontaneous Kerr response in the superconducting state after cooling in zero magnetic field, while a finite c-axis magnetic field training was further used to determin
e the nature of the non-unitary composite order-parameter of this material. Here we present an extensive study of the magnetic-field-trained Kerr effect, which unveils a unique critical state of pinned ferromagnetic vortices. We show that a remanent Kerr signal that appears following the removal of a training magnetic field, which reflects the response of the TRSB order parameter and the external magnetic field through the paramagnetic susceptibility. This unambiguously demonstrate the importance of the ferromagnetic fluctuations and their intimate relation to the composite order parameter. Focusing the measurement to the center of the sample, we are able to accurately determine the maximum field that is screened by the critical state and the respective critical current. Measurements in the presence of magnetic field show the tendency of the superconductor to produce shielding currents that oppose the increase in vortex-induced magnetization due to the diverging paramagnetic susceptibility.
Superconductivity is found in 50% K-doped EuFe2As2 sample below 33 K. Our results of electrical resistivity, magnetic susceptibility and 57Fe and 151Eu Mossbauer spectroscopy provide clear evidence that the ordering of the Fe moments observed at 190
K in undoped EuFe2As2 is completely suppressed in our 50% K doped sample, thus there is no coexistence between the Fe magnetic order and the superconducting state. However, short range ordering of the Eu moments is coexisting with the superconducting state below 15 K. A bump in the susceptibility well below Tc as well as a slight broadening of the Fe Mossbauer line below 15 K evidence an interplay between the Eu magnetism and the superconducting state.
