Title: Systems with correlated electrons at high pressure  | 高压下相互关联的电子系统

Time: 10:00 - 11:00 AM, Tuesday, November 1, 2016

Place: Conference room 410, HPSTAR (Shanghai)

Host: Dr. Wenge Yang

Abstract

Materials with strongly correlated electrons display astonishing variety of properties, which in addition can be strongly modified by external factors such as change of composition, temperature etc. Pressure, in particular can be very useful tool for that. In this talk I will give general overview of several phenomena in systems with correlated electrons, mostly transition metal compounds, which can be strongly modified by pressure. Among the topics to be considered there will be: magnetic and orbital ordering; charge ordering and spontaneous charge disproportionation; spin-state transitions; insulator-metal transitions.
