We analyse the influence of diagonal disorder (random site energy) on Charge Density Wave (CDW) and Superconductivity (SS) in local pair systems which are described by the model of hard core charged bosons on a lattice. This problem was previously studied within the mean field approximation for the case of half filled band (n = 1). Here we extend that investigation to the case of arbitrary particle concentration (0 < n < 2) and examine the phase diagrams of the model and the behaviour of superfluid density as a function of n and the increasing disorder. Depending on the strength of random on-site energies, the intersite density-density repulsion and the concentration the model can exhibit several various phases, including homogeneous phases: CDW, SS and Bose-glass (NO) as well as the phase separated states: CDW-SS, CDW-NO and particle droplets. The obtained results for SS phase are in qualitative agreement with the available Monte Carlo calculations for two dimensional lattice. Also, in a definite range of parameters the system exhibits the phenomena which we call a disorder induced superconductivity and a disorder induced charge ordering.

We study the influence of diagonal disorder (random site energy) of local pair (LP) site energies on the superconducting properties of a system of coexisting local pairs and itinerant electrons described by the (hard-core) boson-fermion model. Our an
alysis shows that the properties of such a model with s-wave pairing can be very strongly affected by the diagonal disorder in LP subsystem (the randomness of the LP site energies). This is in contrast with the conventional s-wave BCS superconductors, which according to the Andersons theorem are rather insensitive to the diagonal disorder (i.e. to nonmagnetic impurities). It has been found that the disorder effects depend in a crucial way on the total particle concentration n and the LP level position DELTA_o and depending on the parameters the system can exhibit various types of superconducting behaviour, including the LP-like, intermediate (MIXED)and the BCS-like. In the extended range of {n,DELTA_o} the superconducting ordering is suppressed by the randomness of the LP site energies and the increasing disorder induces a changeover from the MIXEDlike behaviour to the BCS-like one, connected with abrupt reduction of T_c and energy gap to zero. However, there also exist a definite range of {n,DELTA_o} in which the increasing disorder has a quite different effect: namely it can substantially enhance T_c or even lead to the phenomenon which can be called disorder induced superconductivity. Another interesting effect is a possibility of a disorder induced bound pair formation of itinerant electrons, connected with the change-over to the LP-like regime.
We report the development and application of a new method for carrying out computational investigations of the effects of mass and force-constant (FC) disorder on phonon spectra. The method is based on the recently developed typical medium dynamical
cluster approach (TMDCA), which is a Greens function approach. Excellent quantitative agreement with previous exact diagonalization results establishes the veracity of the method. Application of the method to a model system of binary mass and FC-disordered system leads to several findings. A narrow resonance, significantly below the van Hove singularity, that has been termed as the boson peak, is seen to emerge for low soft particle concentrations. We show, using the typical phonon spectrum, that the states constituting the boson peak cross over from being completely localized to being extended as a function of increasing soft particle concentration. In general, an interplay of mass and FC disorder is found to be cooperative in nature, enhancing phonon localization over all frequencies. However, for certain range of frequencies, and depending on material parameters, FC disorder can delocalize the states that were localized by mass disorder, and vice-versa. Modeling vacancies as weakly bonded sites with vanishing mass, we find that vacancies, even at very low concentrations, are extremely effective in localizing phonons. Thus, inducing vacancies is proposed as a promising route for efficient thermoelectrics. Finally, we use model parameters corresponding to the alloy system, Ni1-xPtx, and show that mass disorder alone is insufficient to explain the pseudogap in the phonon spectrum; the concomitant presence of FC disorder is necessary.
Pd-intercalated ErTe$_3$ is studied as a model system to explore the effect of intertwined superconducting and charge density wave (CDW) orders. Despite the common wisdom that superconductivity emerges only when CDW is suppressed, we present data fro
m STM and AC susceptibility measurements that show no direct competition between CDW order and superconductivity. Both coexist over most of the intercalation range, with uniform superconductivity over length scales that exceed the superconducting coherence length. This is despite persisting short-range CDW order and increased scattering from the Pd intercalation. While superconductivity is insensitive to local defects in either of the bi-directional CDWs, vestiges of the Fermi-level distortions are observed in the properties of the superconducting state.
In a recent Letter, Berciu and Bhatt have presented a mean-field theory of ferromagnetism in III-V semiconductors doped with manganese, starting from an impurity band model. We show that this approach gives an unphysically broad impurity band and is
thus not appropriate for (Ga,Mn)As containing 1-5% Mn. We also point out a microscopically unmotivated sign change in the overlap integrals in the Letter. Without this sign change, stable ferromagnetism is not obtained.
We describe boundary effects in superconducting systems with Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov (FFLO) superconducting instability, using Bogoliubov-de-Gennes and Ginzburg-Landau (GL) formalisms. First, we show that in dimensions larger than one the st
andard GL functional formalism for FFLO superconductors is unbounded from below. This is demonstrated by finding solutions with zero Laplacian terms near boundaries. We generalize the GL formalism for these systems by retaining higher order terms. Next, we demonstrate that a cuboid sample of a superconductor with imbalanced fermions at a mean-field level has a sequence of the phase transitions. At low temperatures it forms Larkin-Ovchinnikov state in the bulk but has a different modulation pattern close to the boundaries. When temperature is increased the first phase transition occurs when the bulk of the material becomes normal while the faces remain superconducting. The second transition occurs at higher temperature where the system retains superconductivity on the edges. The third transition is associated with the loss of edge superconductivity while retaining superconducting gap in the vertices. We obtain the same sequence of phase transition by numerically solving the Bogoliubov-de Gennes model.
