AbstractWe report the evolution of nematic fluctuations in FeSe1−xSx single crystals as a function of Sulfur content x across the nematic quantum critical point (QCP) xc ~ 0.17 via Raman scattering. The Raman spectra in the B1g nematic channel consist of two components, but only the low energy one displays clear fingerprints of critical behavior and is attributed to itinerant carriers. Curie–Weiss analysis of the associated nematic susceptibility indicates a substantial effect of nemato-elastic coupling, which shifts the location of the nematic QCP. We argue that this lattice-induced shift likely explains the absence of any enhancement of the superconducting transition temperature at the QCP. The presence of two components in the nematic fluctuations spectrum is attributed to the dual aspect of electronic degrees of freedom in Hund’s metals, with both itinerant carriers and local moments contributing to the nematic susceptibility.

We explore extremely overdoped regime in the phase diagram of cuprate superconductors. Interlayer tunneling transport measurements under high magnetic fields are employed to detect the field dependence of low-energy density of states (DOS) in hole-doped (BSCCO and TBCO), and electron-doped (SCCO) cuprates. We find a strong doping dependence of the pseudogap closing field whose Zeeman energy universally scales with the pseudogap onset temperature, indicating a preeminent role of spin-singlet correlations in forming the pseudogap regardless of the doping type. Excess dissipation due to the pseudogap is found to follow a 'universal' correlation with the pseudogap closing field. The pseudogap features appear absent in the extremely overdoped TBCO, pointing to a possible quantum critical point very near the edge of the superconducting 'dome'.
