We have used rotational anisotropic polarized Raman spectroscopy to study the symmetries, the temperature and the doping dependence of the charge ordered state in metallic $(Sr_{1-x}La_{x})_{3}Ir_{2}O_{7}$. Although the Raman probe size is greater than the charge ordering length, we establish that the charge ordering breaks the fourfold rotational symmetry of the underlying tetragonal crystal lattice into twofold, as well as the translational symmetry, and forms short-range domains with $90^{circ}$ rotated charge order wave vectors, as soon as the charge order sets in below $T_{CO} = sim$ 200K and across the doping-induced insulator metal transition. We observe that this charge order mode frequency remains nearly constant over a wide temperature range and up to the highest doping level. These above features are highly reminiscent of the ubiquitous unidirectional charge order in underdoped high-$T_C$ copper-oxide-based superconductors (cuprates). We further resolve that the charge order damping rate diverges when approaching $T_{CO}$ from below and increases significantly as increasing the La doping level, which resembles the behaviors for a disorder-interrupted ordered phase and has not been observed for the charge order in cuprates.

We present the electronic structure of Sr_{1-(x+y)}La_{x+y}Ti_{1-x}Cr_{x}O_{3} investigated by high-resolution photoemission spectroscopy. In the vicinity of Fermi level, it was found that the electronic structure were composed of a Cr 3d local state with the t_{2g}^{3} configuration and a Ti 3d itinerant state. The energy levels of these Cr and Ti 3d states are well interpreted by the difference of the charge-transfer energy of both ions. The spectral weight of the Cr 3d state is completely proportional to the spin concentration x irrespective of the carrier concentration y, indicating that the spin density can be controlled by x as desired. In contrast, the spectral weight of the Ti 3d state is not proportional to y, depending on the amount of Cr doping.
We study long wavelength magnetic excitations in lightly doped La_{2-x}Sr_{x}CuO_{4} (x < 0.03) detwinned crystals. The lowest energy magnetic anisotropy induced gap can be understood in terms of the antisymmetric spin interaction inside the antiferr omagnetic (AF) phase. The second magnetic resonace, analyzed in terms of in-plane spin anisotropy, shows unconventional behavior within the AF state and led to the discovery of collective spin excitations pertaining to a field induced magnetically ordered state. This state persists in a 9 T field to more than 100 K above the N{e}el temperature in x = 0.01.

Weyl fermions scattering from a random Coulomb potential are predicted to exhibit resistivity versus temperature $rho space alpha space T^{-4}$ in a single particle model. Here we show that, in closed environment-grown polycrystalline samples of $Y_{ 2}Ir_{2}O_{7}$, $rho = rho_{0} T^{-4}$ over four orders of magnitude in $rho$. While the measured prefactor, $rho_{0}$, is obtained from the model using reasonable materials parameters, the $T^{-4}$ behavior extends far beyond the models range of applicability. In particular, the behavior extends into the low-temperature, high-resistivity region where the Ioffe-Regel parameter, $k_{T} ell ll 2pi$. Strong on-site Coulomb correlations, instrumental for predicting a Weyl semimetal state in $Y_{2}Ir_{2}O_{7}$, are the possible origin of such bad Weyl semimetal behavior.

We study a simplified model of the electronic structure of compounds of the type of La$_{1-x}$Sr$_x$MnO$_3$. The model represents each Mn$^{4+}$ ion by a spin S=1/2, on which an electron can be added to produce Mn$^{3+}$. We include two strong intrat omic interactions in the Hamiltonian: exchange ($J$% ) and Coulomb ($U$). Finally, to represent the effect of Sr substitution by La in a simple way, we include a distribution of diagonal energies at the Mn sites. Then we use Green function techniques to calculate a mobility edge and the average density of states. We find that according to the amount of disorder and to the concentration of electrons in the system, the Fermi level can cross the mobility edge to produce a metal to insulator transition as the magnetization decreases (increase of temperature). If the disorder is large, the system remains insulating for all concentrations. Concentrations near zero or one favor the insulating state while intermediate values of concentration favor the metallic state.
The effect of doping on the electronic structure at the Mn sites in the La_{1-x}Sr_{1+x}MnO_4 series (x=0, 0.3 and 0.5) was studied by means of non-resonant hard X- ray emission spectroscopy (XES). We observe a linear dichroism in the Mn K-beta main lines (3p to 1s transitions) that is strongest for x=0 and decreases with increasing x to 0.5. The Mn K-beta main lines in the poly-crystalline samples change considerably less upon increasing the hole doping (substitution of La by Sr) than it would be expected based on the change of formal valence. From this we conclude that the charge and spin density at the Mn sites are only little affected by doping. This implies that holes injected in the La_{1-x}Sr_{1+x}MnO_4 series mainly result in a decrease of charge density on the oxygen atoms, i.e. oxygen takes part in the charge balancing. These findings are supported by many-body cluster calculations.
