SmS, a prototypical intermediate valence compound as well as a candidate material for correlated topological insulator, has been studied by performing high-pressure nuclear magnetic resonance measurements on a $^{33}$S-enriched sample. The observation of an additional signal below 15-20~K above a nonmagnetic-magnetic transition pressure $P_{rm c2} = 2.0$~GPa gives evidence for the magnetic transition. The absence of a Curie-term in the Knight shift near $P_{rm c2}$ indicates that the transition occurs in electronic states where the localized character of $4f$ electrons is screened through a substantial hybridization. Two distinguishable signals coexist during the stepwise evolution of magnetic volume fraction with lowering temperature near $P_{rm c2}$, which is well described in the regime of first-order transition. The fact that hyperfine fields from the ordered moments cancel out at the S site leads us to a conclusion that the ordered phase has the type II antiferromagnetic structure.

The metal-insulator transition (MIT) is one of the most dramatic manifestations of electron correlations in materials. Various mechanisms producing MITs have been extensively considered, including the Mott (electron localization via Coulomb repulsion ), Anderson (localization via disorder) and Peierls (localization via distortion of a periodic 1D lattice). One additional route to a MIT proposed by Slater, in which long-range magnetic order in a three dimensional system drives the MIT, has received relatively little attention. Using neutron and X-ray scattering we show that the MIT in NaOsO3 is coincident with the onset of long-range commensurate three dimensional magnetic order. Whilst candidate materials have been suggested, our experimental methodology allows the first definitive demonstration of the long predicted Slater MIT. We discuss our results in the light of recent reports of a Mott spin-orbit insulating state in other 5d oxides.
We use two recently proposed methods to calculate exactly the spectrum of two spin-${1over 2}$ charge carriers moving in a ferromagnetic background, at zero temperature, for three types of models. By comparing the low-energy states in both the one-ca rrier and the two-carrier sectors, we analyze whether complex models with multiple sublattices can be accurately described by simpler Hamiltonians, such as one-band models. We find that while this is possible in the one-particle sector, the magnon-mediated interactions which are key to properly describe the two-carrier states of the complex model are not reproduced by the simpler models. We argue that this is true not just for ferromagnetic, but also for antiferromagnetic backgrounds. Our results question the ability of simple one-band models to accurately describe the low-energy physics of cuprate layers.
We report the discovery of pressure-induced superconductivity in a semimetallic magnetic material CeTe$_{1.82}$. The superconducting transition temperature $T_{SC}$ = 2.7 K (well below the magnetic ordering temperatures) under pressure ($>$ 2 kbar) i s remarkably high, considering the relatively low carrier density due to a charge-density-wave transition associated with lattice modulation. The coexisting magnetic structure of a mixed ferromagnetism and antiferromagnetism can provide a clue for this high $T_{SC}$. We discuss a theoretical model for its possible pairing symmetry and pairing mechanism.

We investigate the magnetic instabilities of the two-dimensional model of interacting e_g electrons for hole doping away from two electrons per site in the mean-field approximation. In particular, we address the occurrence of orbitally polarized stat es due to the inequivalent orbitals, and their interplay with ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic spin order. The role played by the Hunds exchange coupling J_H and by the crystal field orbital splitting E_z in stabilizing one of the competing phases is discussed in detail.

Recent discoveries of a new type of quantum criticality arising from Yb-valence fluctuations in Yb-based metal in periodic crystal and quasicrystal have opened a new class of quantum critical phenomena in correlated electron systems. To clarify wheth er this new concept can be generalized to other rare-earth-based semimetal and insulator, we study SmS which exhibits golden-black phase transition under pressure. By constructing the model for SmS, we show that Coulomb repulsion between 4f and 5d orbitals at Sm drives first-order valence transition (FOVT) and semimetal-to-insulator transition (MIT) simultaneously, which explains the golden-black phase transition. We clarify the ground-state phase diagram for the FOVT and MIT by identifying the quantum critical point of the FOVT. We find that exciton condensates in both semimetal and insulator phases. Our result explains measured peak anomalies in the specific heat and compressibility in pressurized golden SmS and provides a cue to clarify recently-observed anomalies in black SmS.
