Recently, the effects of spin-orbit coupling (SOC) in correlated materials have become one
of the most actively studied subjects in condensed matter physics, as correlations and SOC …

We discuss phenomena arising from the combined influence of electron correlation and spin-
orbit coupling (SOC), with an emphasis on emergent quantum phases and transitions in …

We used resonant inelastic x-ray scattering to reveal the nature of magnetic interactions in
Sr 2 IrO 4, a 5 d transition-metal oxide with a spin-orbit entangled ground state and J eff= 1/2 …

Sr 2 IrO 4 has been suggested as a Mott insulator from a single J eff= 1/2 band, similar to the
cuprates. However, this picture is complicated by the measured large magnetic anisotropy …

High-temperature superconductivity in cuprates arises from an electronic state that remains
poorly understood. We report the observation of a related electronic state in a noncuprate …

Abstract Effects of spin–orbit interactions in condensed matter are an important and rapidly
evolving topic. Strong competition between spin–orbit, on-site Coulomb and crystalline …

Sr 2 Ir O 4 was predicted to be a high-temperature superconductor upon electron doping
since it highly resembles the cuprates in crystal structure, electronic structure, and magnetic …

We report a single-crystal neutron diffraction study of the layered Sr 2 IrO 4. This work
unambiguously determines the magnetic structure of the system and reveals that the spin …

Sr 2 IrO 4 exhibits an insulating state driven by spin-orbit interactions. We report two
phenomena, namely, a large magnetoresistivity in Sr 2 IrO 4 that is extremely sensitive to the …

We discuss the notions of spin-orbital polarization and ordering in paramagnetic materials,
and address their consequences in transition-metal oxides. Extending the combined density …
