Article Abstract
The present resonant x-ray scattering has been performed on a monoclinically split single domain of NaV(2)O(5). The observation of a critically enhanced contrast between V(4+) and V(5+) ions has led us to the unequivocal conclusion of the charge-order pattern of the low-temperature phase of NaV(2)O(5) below T(c) = 35 K. In spite of the possible four types of configuration of the zigzag-type charge-order patterns in the ab plane (A,A',B and B'), the stacking sequence along the c axis is determined as the AAA'A' type by comparison with model calculations.

1-TaS is a layered charge density wave (CDW) crystal exhibiting sharp phase transitions and associated resistance changes. These resistance steps could be exploited for information storage, underscoring the importance of controlling and tuning the CDW states. Given the importance of out-of-plane interactions in 1-TaS, modulating interlayer interactions by heterostructuring is a promising method for tailoring CDW phase transitions.

Understanding how time-reversal symmetry (TRS) breaks in quantum materials is key to uncovering new states of matter and advancing quantum technologies. However, unraveling the interplay between TRS breaking, charge order, and superconductivity in kagome metals continues to be a compelling challenge. Here, we investigate the kagome metal Cs(V Nb )Sb with = 0.

The change in symmetry Fd3m → Cc at the Verwey transition in magnetite puts it in a class of phase transitions with linear/quadratic coupling between two separate order parameters. Direct coupling between an order parameter Q, to represent an electronic instability, and an order parameter Q, to represent cation charge ordering, has the form λQQ, with T(Q) < T(Q), but there must also be indirect coupling through the common strain, e, due to strain coupling terms λeQ and λeQ. Q has the symmetry of irrep Γ while the pattern of cation charge ordering of Fe and Fe on octahedral sites depends on some combination of irreps Δ, X, X, W and W.

d-electronic heavy fermion systems have sparked interest in exploring the connection between electronic and spin degrees of freedom in Kondo systems. Nevertheless, the coexistence of charge order on a Kondo lattice has yet to be discovered. FeGeTe, a two-dimensional ferromagnet, intriguingly provides a promising avenue to bridge the gap, as this d-electronic Kondo system facilitates the ordering of charge and magnetic behaviors due to the influence of itinerant magnetism on local electronic band structure.

Kagome materials, characterized by their unique lattice structure and electronic properties such as Dirac cones, flat bands, van Hove singularities, and topologically nontrivial surface states, have become a focal point in solid state chemistry and condensed matter physics. The combination of spin-orbit coupling (SOC) and magnetism in these materials leads to several notable phenomena, such as the large anomalous Hall effect and anomalous Nernst effect observed in noncollinear antiferromagnets like MnSn and MnGe and Weyl semimetal behaviour in CoSnS. The interplay between charge order, superconductivity, and symmetry breaking in materials like AVSb, LaRuSi, and CeRu unveils a rich landscape of emergent quantum phenomena, in addition to the distorted Kagome lattice in HoAgGe, along with the flat band, saddle point, and Dirac cones in YMnSn.
