In the Joint Laboratory of the
Institute of Physics of the AS CR and the
Faculty of Mathematics and Physics of the Charles University a broad spectrum of materials with strongly correlated
d- and
f-electrons and superconductors is studied under combined extreme conditions – in the temperature range 0.35 K to 350 K, magnetic fields up to 14 T and hydrostatic pressure up to 2 GPa. Two fully equipped Physical Property Measuring Systems (PPMS9 and PPMS14) and one SQUID magnetometer with magnet up to 7 Tesla serve for this purpose. The main aim is to determine and explain correlations between electronic structure and physical properties of the studied compounds. This enables preparation of new materials with desired properties.
