The electron-doping-driven collapse of the charge gap and staggered magnetization of the spin-orbit-assisted Mott insulator Sr$_{3}$Ir$_{2}$O$_{7}$ is explored via first-principles computational methods. In the antiferromagnetic phase, the…

The evolution of the electronic properties of electron-doped (Sr{1-x}La{x})2IrO4 is experimentally explored as the doping limit of La is approached. As electrons are introduced, the electronic ground state transitions from a spin-orbit Mott…

The path from a Mott insulating phase to high temperature superconductivity encounters a rich set of unconventional phenomena involving the insulator-to-metal transition (IMT) such as emergent electronic orders and pseudogaps that…

The insulator to metal transition in LaTiO_3 induced by La substitution via Sr is studied within multi-band exact diagonalization dynamical mean field theory at finite temperatures. It is shown that weak hole doping triggers a large…

Motivated by recent neutron scattering experiments, we study the ordering of spins in the iron-based superconductors La(O_{1-x}F_x)FeAs, assuming them in proximity to a Mott insulator in the phase diagram. The ground state of the parent…

Spin excitations are explored in the electron-doped spin-orbit Mott insulator (Sr$_{1-x}$La$_{x}$)$_3$Ir$_2$O$_7$. As this bilayer square lattice system is doped into the metallic regime, long-range antiferromagnetism vanishes, yet a…

The effects of doping on the electronic evolution of the Mott insulating state have been extensively studied in efforts to understand mechanisms of emergent quantum phases of materials. The study of these effects becomes ever more…

The effect of isoelectronic substitution within single crystals of (Sr1-xCax)2-yIrO4+z is explored. The nominal n=1 Ruddlesden-Popper phase with y=0, z=0 remains stable from x=0 until x=0.11, where the antiferromagnet spin-orbit Mott…

We use resonant elastic and inelastic X-ray scattering at the Ir-$L_3$ edge to study the doping-dependent magnetic order, magnetic excitations and spin-orbit excitons in the electron-doped bilayer iridate (Sr$_{1-x}$La$_{x}$)$_3$Ir$_2$O$_7$…

In Mott insulators the evolution of antiferromagnetic order to superconducting or charge-density-wave-like states upon chemical doping underpins the control of quantum phases. Photo-doping can induce similar transitions on the ultrafast…

Spin correlations in metallic and insulating phases of $V_2O_3$ and its derivatives are investigated using magnetic neutron scattering. Metallic samples have incommensurate spin correlations varying little with hole doping. Paramagnetic…

Materials that exhibit both strong spin orbit coupling and electron correlation effects are predicted to host numerous new electronic states. One prominent example is the Jeff =1/2 Mott state in Sr2IrO4, where introducing carriers is…

We investigate the electronic structure of (Sr$_{1-x}$La$_x$)$_2$RhO$_4$ using a combination of the density functional and dynamical mean-field theories. Unlike the earlier local density approximation plus Hubbard $U$ (LDA+U) studies, we…

The magnetic phases of electron-doped infinite-layer Sr$_{1-x}$La$_x$CuO$_2$ are elucidated by first-principles density functional calculations. The antiferromagnetic parent state, metallic transition, as well as lattice evolution with…

Interest in many strongly spin-orbit coupled 5d-transition metal oxide insulators stems from mapping their electronic structures to a J=1/2 Mott phase. One of the hopes is to establish their Mott parent states and explore these systems'…

Recent theory and experiment have revealed that strong spin-orbit coupling can have dramatic qualitative effects on the band structure of weakly interacting solids. Indeed, it leads to a distinct phase of matter, the topological band…

We argue that aspects of the anomalous, low temperature, spin and charge dynamics of the high temperature superconductors can be understood by studying the corresponding physics of undoped Mott insulators. Such insulators display a quantum…

The doping induced insulator-metal transition in $La_{1-x}Sr_{x}TiO_{3}$ is studied using the ab-initio LDA+DMFT method. Combining the LDA bandstructure for the actual, distorted structure found recently with multi-orbital DMFT to treat…

It is widely believed that high-temperature superconductivity in the cuprates emerges from doped Mott insulators. The physics of the parent state seems deceivingly simple: The hopping of the electrons from site to site is prohibited because…

The electrical, magnetic, and structural properties of Sr$_3$(Ru$_{1-x}$Mn$_x$)$_2$O$_7$ (0 $\leq x \leq$ 0.2) are investigated. The parent compound Sr$_3$Ru$_2$O$_7$ is a paramagnetic metal, critically close to magnetic order. We have…
