Spatially inhomogeneous electronic states are expected to be key ingredients for the emergence of superconducting phases in quantum materials hosting charge-density-waves (CDWs). Prototypical materials are transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) and among them, 1$T$-TiSe$_2$ exhibiting intertwined CDW and superconducting states under Cu intercalation, pressure or electrical gating. Although it has been recently proposed that the emergence of superconductivity relates to CDW fluctuations and the development of spatial inhomogeneities in the CDW order, the fundamental mechanism underlying such a phase separation (PS) is still missing. Using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and variable-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy, we report on the phase diagram of the CDW in 1$T$-TiSe$_2$ as a function of Ti self-doping, an overlooked degree of freedom inducing CDW texturing. We find an intrinsic tendency towards electronic PS in the vicinity of Fermi surface (FS) hot spots, i.e. locations with band crossings close to, but not at the Fermi level. We therefore demonstrate an intimate relationship between the FS topology and the emergence of spatially textured electronic phases which is expected to be generalizable to many doped CDW compounds.

We present a phenomenological model based on the thermodynamics of the phase separated state of manganites, accounting for its static and dynamic properties. Through calorimetric measurements on La$_{0.225}$Pr$_{0.40}$Ca$ _{0.375}$MnO$_{3}$ the low t
emperature free energies of the coexisting ferromagnetic and charge ordered phases are evaluated. The phase separated state is modeled by free energy densities uniformly spread over the sample volume. The calculations contemplate the out of equilibrium features of the coexisting phase regime, to allow a comparison between magnetic measurements and the predictions of the model. A phase diagram including the static and dynamic properties of the system is constructed, showing the existence of blocked and unblocked regimes which are characteristics of the phase separated state in manganites.
By using a realist microscopic model, we study the electric and magnetic properties of the interface between a half metallic manganite and an insulator. We find that the lack of carriers at the interface debilitates the double exchange mechanism, wea
kening the ferromagnetic coupling between the Mn ions. In this situation the ferromagnetic order of the Mn spins near the interface is unstable against antiferromagnetic CE correlations, and a separation between ferromagnetic/metallic and antiferromagnetic/insulator phases at the interfaces can occur. We obtain that the insertion of extra layers of undoped manganite at the interface introduces extra carriers which reinforce the double exchange mechanism and suppress antiferromagnetic instabilities.
Angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) is used to study the energy and momentum dependence of the inelastic scattering rates and the mass renormalization of charge carriers in LiFeAs at several high symmetry points in the Brillouin zone. A
strong and linear-in-energy scattering rate is observed for sections of the Fermi surface having predominantly Fe $3d_{xy/yz}$ orbital character on the inner hole and on electron pockets. We assign them to hot spots with marginal Fermi liquid character inducing high antiferromagnetic and pairing susceptibilities. The outer hole pocket, with Fe $3d_{xy}$ orbital character, has a reduced but still linear in energy scattering rate. Finally, we assign sections on the middle hole pockets with Fe $3d_{xz,yz}$ orbital character and on the electron pockets with Fe $3d_{xy}$ orbital character to cold spots because there we observe a quadratic-in-energy scattering rate with Fermi-liquid behavior. These cold spots prevail the transport properties. Our results indicate a strong $it{momentum}$ dependence of the scattering rates. We also have indications that the scattering rates in correlated systems are fundamentally different from those in non-correlated materials because in the former the Pauli principle is not operative. We compare our results for the scattering rates with combined density functional plus dynamical mean-field theory calculations. The work provides a generic microscopic understanding of macroscopic properties of multiorbital unconventional superconductors.
Of the two stable forms of graphite, hexagonal (HG) and rhombohedral (RG), the former is more common and has been studied extensively. RG is less stable, which so far precluded its detailed investigation, despite many theoretical predictions about th
e abundance of exotic interaction-induced physics. Advances in van der Waals heterostructure technology have now allowed us to make high-quality RG films up to 50 graphene layers thick and study their transport properties. We find that the bulk electronic states in such RG are gapped and, at low temperatures, electron transport is dominated by surface states. Because of topological protection, the surface states are robust and of high quality, allowing the observation of the quantum Hall effect, where RG exhibits phase transitions between gapless semimetallic phase and gapped quantum spin Hall phase with giant Berry curvature. An energy gap can also be opened in the surface states by breaking their inversion symmetry via applying a perpendicular electric field. Moreover, in RG films thinner than 4 nm, a gap is present even without an external electric field. This spontaneous gap opening shows pronounced hysteresis and other signatures characteristic of electronic phase separation, which we attribute to emergence of strongly-correlated electronic surface states.
Here we report an asymmetric suppresion of spectral weight at the Fermi surface around the M points using angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy. The results provide direct evidence for diagonal stripes in the Bi2212 superconductors.
