Kitaev magnetism in honeycomb RuCl3 with intermediate spin-orbit coupling
Heung-Sik Kim, V. Vijay Shankar, Andrei Catuneanu +1
Intensive studies of the interplay between spin-orbit coupling (SOC) and electronic correlations in transition metal compounds have recently been undertaken. In particular, $j_{\rm…
-RuCl3: a Spin-Orbit Assisted Mott Insulator on a Honeycomb Lattice
K. W. Plumb, J. P. Clancy, L. Sandilands +5
We examine the role of spin-orbit coupling in the electronic structure of -RuCl3, in which Ru ions in 4d5 configuration form a honeycomb lattice. The measured optical spectra ex…
Engineering spin-orbital magnetic insulator by tailoring superlattices
Jobu Matsuno, Kota Ihara, Shugen Yamamura +5
Novel interplay of spin-orbit coupling and electron correlations in complex Ir oxides recently emerged as a new paradigm for correlated electron physics. Because of a large spin-or…
Theory of magnetism and metal-insulator transition in layered perovskite iridates
Jean-Michel Carter, V. Vijay Shankar, Hae-Young Kee
We investigate the metal-insulator transition in the layered Ruddelsden Popper series of strontium iridates Srn+1IrnO3n+1. Tight-binding models of t2g orbitals for n = 1, 2, and in…
Semimetal and Topological Insulator in Perovskite Iridates
Jean-Michel Carter, V. Vijay Shankar, M. Ahsan Zeb +1
The two-dimensional layered perovskite Sr2IrO4 was proposed to be a spin-orbit Mott insulator, where the effect of Hubbard interaction is amplified on a narrow J_{eff} = 1/2 band d…
