The unconventional electronic ground state of Sr$_3$IrRuO$_7$ is explored via resonant x-ray scattering techniques and angle-resolved photoemission measurements. As the Ru content approaches $x=0.5$ in Sr$_3$(Ir$_{1-x}$Ru$_x$)$_2$O$_7$, intermediate to the $J_{eff}=1/2$ Mott state in Sr$_3$Ir$_2$O$_7$ and the quantum critical metal in Sr$_3$Ru$_2$O$_7$, a thermodynamically distinct metallic state emerges. The electronic structure of this intermediate phase lacks coherent quasiparticles, and charge transport exhibits a linear temperature dependence over a wide range of temperatures. Spin dynamics associated with the long-range antiferromagnetism of this phase show nearly local, overdamped magnetic excitations and an anomalously large energy scale of 200 meV---an energy far in excess of exchange energies present within either the Sr$_3$Ir$_2$O$_7$ or Sr$_3$Ru$_2$O$_7$ solid-solution endpoints. Overdamped quasiparticle dynamics driven by strong spin-charge coupling are proposed to explain the incoherent spectral features of the strange metal state in Sr$_3$IrRuO$_7$.

We report observation of strong magnetic proximity coupling in a heterostructured superconductor Sr$_2$VO$_3$FeAs, determined by the upper critical fields $H_{c2}(T)$ measurements up to 65 T. Using the resistivity and the radio-frequency measurements
for both $H parallel ab$ and $H parallel c$, we found a strong upward curvature of $H_{c2}^c(T)$, together with a steep increase of $H_{c2}^{ab}(T)$ near $T_c$, yielding the anisotropic factor $gamma_H=H_{c2}^{ab}/H_{c2}^c$ up to $sim$ 20, the largest value among iron-based superconductors. These are attributed to the Jaccarino-Peter effect, rather than to the multiband effect, due to strong exchange interaction between itinerant Fe spins of the FeAs layers and localized V spins of Mott-insulating SrVO$_3$ layers. These findings provide evidence for strong antiferromagnetic proximity coupling, comparable with the intralayer superexchange interaction of SrVO$_3$ layer and sufficient to induce magnetic frustration in Sr$_2$VO$_3$FeAs.
The topochemical transformation of single crystals of Sr$_3$Ir$_2$O$_7$ into Sr$_3$Ir$_2$O$_7$F$_2$ is reported via fluorine insertion. Characterization of the newly formed Sr$_3$Ir$_2$O$_7$F$_2$ phase shows a nearly complete oxidation of Ir$^{4+}$ c
ations into Ir$^{5+}$ that in turn drives the system from an antiferromagnetic Mott insulator with a half-filled J$_{eff}=1/2$ band into a nonmagnetic $J=0$ band insulator. First principles calculations reveal a remarkably flat insertion energy that locally drives the fluorination process to completion. Band structure calculations support the formation of a band insulator whose charge gap relies on the strong spin-orbit coupling inherent to the Ir metal ions of this compound.
Ac and dc magnetization and heat-capacity (C) measurements performed on the pseudo-one-dimensional compound Sr$_3$CuIrO$_6$ reveal a competition between antiferromagnetic (AF) and ferromagnetic (F) exchange couplings, as evidenced by frequency depend
ence of ac susceptibility and by the absence of a C anomaly at the magnetic transition. The value of the saturation moment (about 0.35 $mu_B$/formula unit) is much smaller than expected for ferromagnetism from the two S=1/2 ions (Cu and Ir). Thus, this compound is not a ferromagnet in zero magnetic field, in contrast to earlier beliefs. Of particular importance is the finding that the value of the magnetic ordering temperature is sample dependent, sensitive to synthetic conditions resulting from deviations in oxygen/Cu content. We propose that this compound serves as a unique model system to test theories on random AF-F interaction in a chain system, considering that this competition can be tuned without any chemical substitution.
Using THz spectroscopy, we show that the spin-wave spectrum of multiferroic BiFeO$_3$ in its high-field canted antiferromagnetic state is well described by a spin model that violates rhombohedral symmetry. We demonstrate that the monoclinic distortio
n of the canted antiferromagnetic state is induced by the single-ion magnetoelastic coupling between the lattice and the two nearly anti-parallel spins. The revised spin model for BiFeO$_3$ contains two new single-ion anisotropy terms that violate rhombohedral symmetry and depend on the direction of the magnetic field.
The antiferromagnetic Ruddlesden-Popper ruthenate Ca$_3$Ru$_2$O$_7$ is a model polar metal, combining inversion symmetry breaking with metallic conductivity; however, its low temperature ($T < 48$ K) crystal structure and Fermi surface topology remai
n ambiguous despite numerous measurements and theoretical studies. Here we perform both first principles calculations with static correlations and angle resolved photoelectron spectroscopy experiments to construct a complete model of Ca$_3$Ru$_2$O$_7$, reconciling inconsistencies among interpretations of electrical transport, thermopower measurements, and momentum- and energy-resolved band dispersions. The solution relies on treating the interplay among Coulomb repulsion, magnetic ordering, spin-orbit interactions, and the RuO$_6$ octahedral degrees-of-freedom on equal footing. For temperatures $30<T < 48$ K, we propose weak electron-electron interactions produce a symmetry-preserving metal-semimetal transition with Weyl nodes in proximity to the Fermi level, whereas a new orthorhombic $Pn2_1a$ structure emerges for $T<30$ K, exhibiting charge and spin density waves from enhanced Coulombic interactions.
