Oxygen was electrochemically intercalated into Sr$_2$IrO$_4$ sintered samples, single crystals and a thin film. We estimate the diffusion length to a few $mu$m and the concentration of the intercalated oxygen to $delta$ $simeq$ 0.01. The latter is thus much smaller than for the cuprate and nickelate parent compounds, for which $delta$ $>$ 0.1 is obtained, which could be a consequence of larger steric effects. The influence of the oxygen doping state on resistivity is small, indicating also a poor charge transfer to the conduction band. It is shown that electrochemical intercalation of oxygen may also contribute to doping, when gating thin films with ionic liquid in the presence of water.

We investigate the temporal evolution of electronic states in strontium iridate Sr$_2$IrO$_4$. The time resolved photoemission spectra of intrinsic, electron doped and the hole doped samples are monitored in identical experimental conditions. Our dat a on intrinsic and electron doped samples, show that primary doublon-holon pairs relax near to the chemical potential on a timescale shorter than $70$ fs. The subsequent cooling of low energy excitations takes place in two step: a rapid dynamics of $cong120$ fs is followed by a slower decay of $cong 1$ ps. The reported timescales endorse the analogies between Sr$_2$IrO$_4$ and copper oxides.
Discoveries of marked similarities to high-$T_{text{c}}$ cuprate superconductors point to the realization of superconductivity in the doped $J_{text{eff}} = 1 / 2$ Mott insulator Sr$_2$IrO$_4$. Contrary to the mother compound of cuprate superconducto rs, several stacking patterns of in-plane canted antiferromagnetic moments have been reported, which are distinguished by the ferromagnetic components as $-++-$, $++++$, and $-+-+$. In this paper, we clarify unconventional features of the superconductivity coexisting with $-++-$ and $-+-+$ structures. Combining the group theoretical analysis and numerical calculations for an effective $J_{text{eff}} = 1 / 2$ model, we show unusual superconducting gap structures in the $-++-$ state protected by nonsymmorphic magnetic space group symmetry. Furthermore, our calculation shows that the Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov superconductivity is inevitably stabilized in the $-+-+$ state since the odd-parity magnetic $-+-+$ order makes the band structure asymmetric by cooperating with spin-orbit coupling. These unusual superconducting properties are signatures of magnetic multipole order in nonsymmorphic crystal.
We study superconducting properties in multilayer thin films consisting of superconducting La$_{1.85}$Sr$_{0.15}$CuO$_4$ (LSCO) and Mott insulator Sr$_2$IrO$_4$ (SIO) and report enhanced superconductivity in optimized sample. These multilayer heteros tructures show an increase in superconducting transition temperature ($T_C$) as compared to the single layer LSCO films. The temperature dependence of SIO single layer is also investigated under thermal activation, Arrhenius-type behaviour, and variable-range hopping mechanisms for different temperature regimes. The decrease in $T_C$ beyond an optimum thickness of LSCO in these multilayers is analyzed in the framework of a model based on the assumption of induced superconductivity in SIO-LSCO interface due to the doping of La and/or oxygen deficiencies into SIO layers

The effect of compression on the magnetic ground state of Sr$_2$IrO$_4$ is studied with x-ray resonant techniques in the diamond anvil cell. The weak interlayer exchange coupling between square-planar 2D IrO$_2$ layers is readily modified upon compre ssion, with a crossover between magnetic structures around 7 GPa mimicking the effect of an applied magnetic field at ambient pressure. Higher pressures drive an order-disorder magnetic phase transition with no magnetic order detected above 17-20 GPa. The persistence of strong exchange interactions between $mathrm{J_{eff}}=1/2$ magnetic moments within the insulating IrO$_2$ layers up to at least 35 GPa points to a highly frustrated magnetic state in compressed Sr$_2$IrO$_4$ opening the door for realization of novel quantum paramagnetic phases driven by extended $5d$ orbitals with entangled spin and orbital degrees of freedom.
We show that, contrary to previous belief, the transition to the antiferromagnetic state of Sr$_2$IrO$_4$ in zero magnetic field does show up in the transverse resistivity. We attribute this to a change in transverse integrals associated to the magne tic ordering, which is evaluated considering hopping of the localized charge. The evolution of the resistivity anomaly associated to the magnetic transition under applied magnetic field is studied. It tracks the magnetic phase diagram, allowing to identify three different lines, notably the spin-flip line, associated with the reordering of the ferromagnetic component of the magnetization, and an intriguing line for field induced magnetism, also corroborated by magnetization measurements.
