In the vicinity of a competing electronic order, superconductivity emerges within a superconducting dome in the phase diagram, which has been demonstrated in unconventional superconductors and transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), suggesting a scenario where fluctuations or a partial melting of a parent order are essential for inducing superconductivity. Here, we present a contrary example, the two-dimensional (2D) superconductivity in transition-metal carbide can be readily turned into charge density wave (CDW) phases via dilute magnetic doping. Low temperature scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy (STM/STS), transport measurements, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations were employed to investigate Cr-doped superconducting MoC crystals in the 2D limit.

Temperature-dependent specific heat, magnetization and neutron diffraction data have been collected in zero magnetic field for polycrystalline samples of MnW1-x Mo x O4 (x ⩽ 0.2) solid solution whose end-member MnWO4 exhibits a magnetoelectric multiferroic phase (AF2 phase) between T 1 ≈ 8 K and T 2 = 12.5 K.

We have performed an in situ photoemission study of Pr1-xCaxMnO3 (PCMO) thin films grown on LaAlO3 (001) substrates and observed the effect of epitaxial strain on the electronic structure. We found that the chemical potential shifted monotonically with doping, unlike bulk PCMO, implying the disappearance of incommensurate charge fluctuations of bulk PCMO. In the valence-band spectra, we found a doping-induced energy shift toward the Fermi level (EF) but there was no spectral weight transfer, which was observed in bulk PCMO.
