We report the observation of a linear magnetoresistance in single crystals and epitaxial thin films of the pyrochlore iridate Bi$_2$Ir$_2$O$_7$. The linear magnetoresistance is positive and isotropic at low temperatures, without any sign of saturation up to 35 Tesla. As temperature increases, the linear field dependence gradually evolves to a quadratic field dependence. The temperature and field dependence of magnetoresistance of Bi$_2$Ir$_2$O$_7$ bears strikingly resemblance to the scale invariant magnetoresistance observed in the strange metal phase in high Tc cuprates. However, the residual resistivity of Bi$_2$Ir$_2$O$_7$ is more than two orders of magnitude higher than the curpates. Our results suggest that the correlation between linear magnetoresistance and quantum fluctuations may exist beyond high temperature superconductors.

The influence of a staggered molecular field in frustrated rare-earth pyrochlores, produced via the magnetic iridium occupying the transition metal site, can generate exotic ground states, such as the fragmentation of the magnetization in the Ho comp
ound. At variance with the Ising Ho$^{3+}$ moment, we focus on the behavior of the quasi isotropic magnetic moment of the Gd$^{3+}$ ion at the rare-earth site. By means of macroscopic measurements and neutron scattering, we find a complex situation where different components of the magnetic moment contribute to two antiferromagnetic non-collinear arrangements: a high temperature all in - all out order induced by the Ir molecular field, and Palmer and Chalker correlations that tend to order at much lower temperatures. This is enabled by the anisotropic nature of the Gd-Gd interactions and requires a weak easy-plane anisotropy of the Gd$^{3+}$ moment due to the mixing of the ground state with multiplets of higher spectral terms.
The oxide pyrochlore Bi$_2$Ti$_2$O$_7$ is in some ways analogous to perovskite PbTiO$_3$, in that Bi$_2$Ti$_2$O$_7$ has two cations, Bi$^{3+}$ and Ti$^{4+}$ in oxidation states that are normally associated with a propensity to off-center. However, un
like PbTiO$_3$, Bi$_2$Ti$_2$O$_7$ is experimentally observed to remain cubic down to 2 K, while the only observed ionic displacements are local and incoherent. Here we report first-principles calculations of the zone-center phonons of the ordered cubic pyrochlore which reveal several lattice instabilities. An analysis of the structural energetics suggest that the ordered cubic pyrochlore is unstable with respect to distortion towards a ferroelectric ground state with a large polarization. Our results suggest a key role of a frustrated soft polar mode in the dielectric properties of bismuth pyrochlores.
We study the pyrochlore series (Eu$_{1-x}$Bi$_x$)$_2$Ir$_2$O$_7$ for $ 0 leq x leq 1$. We show that for small $x$, the lattice undergoes an anomalous contraction but the all-in/all-out and metal-to-insulator transitions remain robust, and the resisti
vity approaches a $1/T$ dependence at low-T, suggesting proximity to the Weyl semimetallic phase, as previously predicted theoretically. At the boundary between Eu$_2$Ir$_2$O$_7$ and Bi$_2$Ir$_2$O$_7$ a qualitatively different ground state emerges, which is characterized by its unusual metallic behavior and absence of magnetic ordering at least down to $0.02$ K.
Critical phenomenon at the phase transition reveals the universal and long-distance properties of the criticality. We study the ferromagnetic criticality of the pyrochlore magnet Lu$_2$V$_2$O$_7$ at the ferromagnetic transition ${T_text{c}approx 70,
text{K}}$ from the isotherms of magnetization $M(H)$ via an iteration process and the Kouvel-Fisher method. The critical exponents associated with the transition are determined as ${beta = 0.32(1)}$, ${gamma = 1.41(1)}$, and ${delta = 5.38}$. The validity of these critical exponents is further verified by scaling all the $M(H)$ data in the vicinity of $T_text{c}$ onto two universal curves in the plot of $M/|varepsilon|^beta$ versus $H/|varepsilon|^{beta+gamma}$, where ${varepsilon = T/T_text{c} -1}$. The obtained $beta$ and $gamma$ values show asymmetric behaviors on the ${T < T_text{c}}$ and the ${T > T_text{c}}$ sides, and are consistent with the predicted values of 3D Ising and cubic universality classes, respectively. This makes Lu$_2$V$_2$O$_7$ a rare example in which the critical behaviors associated with a ferromagnetic transition belong to different universality classes. We describe the observed criticality from the Ginzburg-Landau theory with the quartic cubic anisotropy that microscopically originates from the anti-symmetric Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction as revealed by recent magnon thermal Hall effect and theoretical investigations.
Both amorphous and crystalline materials frequently exhibit low temperature specific heats in excess of what is predicted using the Debye model. The signature of this excess specific heat is a peak observed in $C/T^3$ textit{versus} $T$. To understan
d the curious absence of long-range ordering of local distortions in the crystal structure of pyrochlore Bi$_2$Ti$_2$O$_7$, we have measured the specific heat of crystalline Bi$_2$Ti$_2$O$_7$ and related compounds. We find that the peak in $C/T^3$ versus $T$ in Bi$_2$Ti$_2$O$_7$ falls at a substantially lower temperature than other similar compounds, consistent with the presence of disorder. This thermodynamic evidence for disorder in crystalline Bi$_2$Ti$_2$O$_7$ is consistent with quenched configurational disorder among Bi lone pairs produced by geometrical frustration, which could represent a possible realization of charge ice.
