We performed resonant x-ray diffraction experiments at the $L$ absorption edges for the post-perovskite-type compound CaIrO$_{3}$ with $(t_{2g})^5$ electronic configuration. By observing the magnetic signals, we could clearly see that the…

We report on the Cu 1s resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) of Cu-O one-dimensional (1D) strongly correlated insulator systems with contrasting atomic arrangements, namely edge-sharing CuGeO3 and corner-sharing Sr2CuO3. Owing to good…

We suggest that Cobalt-Oxychalcogenide layers constructed by vertex sharing CoA$_2$O$_2$ (A=S,Se,Te) tetrahedra, such as BaCoAO, are strongly correlated multi-orbital electron systems that can provide important clues on the cause of…

The electronic states of many Mott insulators, including iridates, are often conceptualized in terms of localized atomic states such as the famous "$J_\text{eff}=1/2$ state". Although, orbital hybridization can strongly modify such states…

Spin-orbit coupling in heavy 5$d$ metal oxides, in particular, iridates have received tremendous interest in recent years due to the realization of exotic electronic and magnetic phases. Here, we report the synthesis, structural, magnetic,…

Although much progress has been made on the physics of magic angle twisted bilayer graphene at integer fillings, little attention has been given to fractional fillings. Here we show that the three-peak structure of Wannier orbitals,…

We report angle-resolved photoemission (ARPES) measurements, density functional and model tight-binding calculations on Ba$_2$IrO$_4$ (Ba-214), an antiferromagnetic ($T_N=230$ K) insulator. Ba-214 does not exhibit the rotational distortion…

$\gamma$-triclinic and $\alpha$-monoclinic polymorphs of CoV$_{2}$O$_{6}$ are two of the few known transition metal ion based materials that display stepped $1/3$ magnetization plateaus at low temperatures. Neutron diffraction [M. Markkula…

A burning question in the emerging field of spin-orbit driven insulating iridates, such as Na2IrO3 and Li2IrO3 is whether the observed insulating state should be classified as a Mott-Hubbard insulator derived from a half-filled relativistic…

The semi-metallic behavior of the perovskite iridate SrIrO3 shifts the end-member of the strongly spin-orbit (SO) coupled Ruddlesden-Popper series Srn+1IrnO3n+1 away from the Mott insulating regime and the half-filled pseudospin Jeff=1/2…

I study the electronic structure and magnetism of postperovskite CaIrO$_3$ using first-principles calculations. The density functional calculations within the local density approximation without the combined effect of spin-orbit coupling…

Properties of trivalent cobalt oxide compounds are largely influenced by the spin state of the six 3d electrons at each Co site. High-spin Co3+ ions, where orbital angular momentum is only partially quenched, often exhibit significant…

Electrons residing in flat-band system can play a vital role in triggering spectacular phenomenology due to relatively large interactions and spontaneous breaking of different degeneracies. In this work we demonstrate chirally twisted…

Neutron diffraction measurements are presented exploring the magnetic and structural phase behaviors of the candidate J$_{eff}=1/2$ Mott insulating iridate Sr$_2$IrO$_4$. Comparisons are drawn between the correlated magnetism in this single…

It has been well established experimentally that the interplay of electronic correlations and spin-orbit interactions in Ir$^{4+}$ and Ir$^{5+}$ oxides results in insulating J$_{\rm eff}$=1/2 and J$_{\rm eff}$=0 ground states, respectively.…

Layered cobaltates embody novel realizations of correlated quantum matter on a spin-1/2 triangular lattice. We report a high-resolution systematic photoemission study of the insulating cobaltates (Na1/2CoO2 and K1/2CoO2). Observation of…

We studied the electronic structure of $\beta$-Li$_2$IrO$_3$ insulator within the density-functional theory using the generalized gradient approximation with taking into account strong Coulomb correlations in the framework of the fully…

We investigate the electronic structure of BaIrO3, an interesting compound exhibiting charge density wave transition in its insulating phase and ferromagnetic transition at the same temperature, using full potential linearized augmented…

Iridium oxides (iridates) provide a good platform to study the delicate interplay between spin-orbit coupling (SOC) interactions, electron correlation effects, Hund's coupling and lattice degree of freedom. However, overwhelming…

Spin-orbit coupling in crystals is known to lead to unusual direction dependent exchange interactions, however understanding of the consequeces of such effects in molecular crystals is incomplete. Here we perform four component relativistic…
