Quantum materials under extreme conditions

Orateur : Sven BADOUX (University of Bristol, UK)

Understanding the origin and the links between competing quantum orders that sometimes coexist in quantum materials is one of the biggest questions to answer. For example the superconducting state and the appearance of the still mysterious pseudogap phase in copper oxides superconductors (cuprates). Often, these exotic phases appear close to other phases and it is therefore difficult to find their origin. To isolate certain phases in order to better study them, it is possible either to modify the intrinsic parameters of the material such as the doping or either use extrinsic conditions such as temperature, pressure and the magnetic fields.
