The discovery of multiple coexisting magnetic phases in a crystallographically homogeneous compound Ca$_3$Co$_2$O$_6$ has stimulated an ongoing research activity. In recent years the main focus has been on the zero field state properties, where exceedingly long time scales have been established. In this study we report a detailed investigation of static and dynamic properties of Ca$_3$Co$_2$O$_6$ across the magnetic field induced transition around 3.5 T. This region has so far been practically neglected while we argue that in some aspects it represents a simpler version of the transition across the $B = 0$ state. Investigating the frequency dependence of the ac susceptibility we reveal that on the high field side ($B > 3.5$ T) the response corresponds to a relatively narrow distribution of magnetic clusters. The distribution appears very weakly dependent on magnetic field, with an associated energy barrier of around 200 K. Below 3.5 T a second contribution arises, with much smaller characteristic frequencies and a strong temperature and magnetic field dependence. We discuss these findings in the context of intra-chain and inter-chain clustering of magnetic moments.
Using powder neutron diffraction we have discovered an unusual magnetic order-order transition in the Ising spin chain compound Ca3Co2O6. On lowering the temperature an antiferromagnetic phase with propagation vector k=(0.5,-0.5,1) emerges from a hig
The metal-insulator transition (MIT) of BaVS3 is suppressed under pressure and above the critical pressure of p~2GPa the metallic phase is stabilized. We present the results of detailed magnetoresistivity measurements carried out at pressures near th
We derive, by means of an extended Gutzwiller wavefunction and within the Gutzwiller approximation, the phase diagram of the Kondo lattice model. We find that generically, namely in the absence of nesting, the model displays an $f$-electron Mott loca
We study vanadium spinels $A$V$_2$O$_4$ ($A$ = Cd, Mg) in pulsed magnetic fields up to 65 T. A jump in magnetization at $mu_0 H approx$ 40 T is observed in the single-crystal MgV$_2$O$_4$, indicating a field induced quantum phase transition between t
We utilize near-infrared pump and mid-infrared probe spectroscopy to investigate the ultrafast electronic response of pressurized VO$_2$. Distinct pump-probe signals and a pumping threshold behavior are observed even in the pressure-induced metallic
