Magnetic structures and electronic properties of cubic-pyrochlore ruthenates from first principles

Abstract

The magnetic ground states of $R_2$Ru${}_2$O${}_7$ and $A_2$Ru${}_2$O${}_7$ with $R=$ Pr, Gd, Ho, and Er, as well as $A=$ Ca, Cd are predicted devising a combination of the cluster-multipole (CMP) theory and spin-density-functional theory (SDFT). The strong electronic correlation effects are estimated by the constrained-random-phase approximation (cRPA) and taken into account within the dynamical-mean-field theory (DMFT). The target compounds feature $d$-orbital magnetism on Ru${}^{4+}$ and Ru${}^{5+}$ ions for $R$ and $A$, respectively, as well as $f$-orbital magnetism on the $R$ site, which leads to an intriguing interplay of magnetic interactions in a strongly correlated system. We find CMP+SDFT is capable of describing the magnetic ground states in these compounds. The cRPA captures a difference in the screening strength between $R_2$Ru${}_2$O${}_7$ and $A_2$Ru${}_2$O${}_7$ compounds, which leads to a qualitative and quantitative understanding of the electronic properties within DMFT.
