Several spin systems with low dimensionality develop a spin-dimer phase within a molecular orbital below TS, competing with long-range antiferromagnetic order. Very often, preferential orbital occupancy and ordering are the actual driving…
Different types of order are discussed in the context of strongly correlated transition metal oxides, involving pure compounds and $3d^{3}-4d^{4}$ and $3d^{2}-4d^{4}$ hybrids. Apart from standard, long-range spin and orbital orders we…
Dimension reduction due to the orbital ordering has recently been proposed to explain the exotic charge, magnetic and structural transitions in some three-dimensional (3D) transitional metal oxides. We present optical measurement on a…
Hund's rule coupling ($\textit{J}$) has attracted much attention recently for its role in the description of the novel quantum phases of multi orbital materials. Depending on the orbital occupancy, $\textit{J}$ can lead to various…
The possibility of "orbitally selective Mott transitions" within a multiband Hubbard model, in which one orbital with large on-site electron-electron repulsion $U_1$ is insulating and another orbital, to which it is hybridized, with small…
We study how the Mott metal-insulator transition (MIT) is influenced when we deal with electrons with different angular momenta. For lithium we found an essential effect when we include $p$-orbitals in the description of the Hilbert space.…
Synchrotron X-ray diffraction experiment shows that the metal-insulator transition occurring in a ferromagnetic state of a hollandite K$_2$Cr$_8$O$_{16}$ is accompanied by a structural distortion from the tetragonal $I4/m$ to monoclinic…
We discuss phenomena arising from the combined influence of electron correlation and spin-orbit coupling, with an emphasis on emergent quantum phases and transitions in heavy transition metal compounds with 4d and 5d elements. A common…
Recent state-of-the-art crystallographic investigations of transition metal spinel compounds have revealed that the d- orbital charge carriers undergo ordering transitions with the formation of local "molecular bonding" units such as dimers…
Transition metal oxides exhibit various competing phases and exotic phenomena depending on how their reaction to the rich degeneracy of the $d$-orbital. Large spin-orbit coupling (SOC) reduces this degeneracy in a unique way by providing a…
Complex oxides with $4d$ and $5d$ transition-metal ions recently emerged as a new paradigm in correlated electron physics, due to the interplay between spin-orbit coupling and electron interactions. For $4d$ and $5d$ ions, the spin-orbit…
We use exact diagonalization combined with mean-field theory to investigate the phase diagram of the spin-orbital model for cubic vanadates. The spin-orbit coupling competes with Hund's exchange and triggers a novel phase, with the ordering…
Transition metal compounds with the $(t_{2g})^4$ electronic configuration are expected to be nonmagnetic atomic singlets both in the weakly interacting regime due to spin-orbit coupling, as well as in the Coulomb dominated regime with…
By applying dynamical mean-field theory in combination with exact diagonalization at zero temperature to a half-filled Hubbard model with two orbitals having distinct noninteracting densities of states, we show that an orbital selective…
This article explore the behavior of singlet pairs in Inorganic crystals and take the Ti-Ti and Bi-Bi dimer for example, including the transition in critical temperture by directly or indirectly. Through the analysis, It is proposed that…
The bad metal behavior in the normal state of the iron-based superconductors suggests an intimate connection between the superconductivity and a proximity to a Mott transition. At the same time, there is strong evidence for the…
Results of first principles augmented spherical wave electronic structure calculations for niobium dioxide are presented. Both metallic rutile and insulating low-temperature NbO2, which crystallizes in a distorted rutile structure, are…
Interacting one-dimensional conductors with Rashba spin-orbit coupling are shown to exhibit a spin-selective Peierls-type transition into a mixed spin-charge-density-wave state. The transition leads to a gap for one-half of the conducting…
Topological band insulators which are dynamically generated by electron-electron interactions have been the- oretically proposed in two and three dimensional lattice models. We present evidence that the two-dimensional version can be…
We theoretically investigate magnetic properties in the low-temperature phase with the formation of eight-site clusters, octamers, in the spinel compound CuIr$_2$S$_4$. The octamer state was considered to be a spin-singlet state induced by…
