X-ray absorption near edge spectra (XANES) and magnetization of Zn doped MnV2O4 have been measured and from the magnetic measurement the critical exponents and magnetocaloric effect have been estimated. The XANES study indicates that Zn doping does not change the valence states in Mn and V. It has been shown that the obtained values of critical exponents b{eta}, {gamma} and {delta} do not belong to universal class and the values are in between the 3D Heisenberg model and the mean field interaction model. The magnetization data follow the scaling equation and collapse into two branches indicating that the calculated critical exponents and critical temperature are unambiguous and intrinsic to the system. All the samples show large magneto-caloric effect. The second peak in magneto-caloric curve of Mn0.95Zn0.05V2O4 is due to the strong coupling between orbital and spin degrees of freedom. But 10% Zn doping reduces the residual spins on the V-V pairs resulting the decrease of coupling between orbital and spin degrees of freedom.

Our magnetic, electrical, and thermal measurements on single-crystals of the novel Mott insulator, Sr2IrO4, reveal a novel giant magneto-electric effect (GME) arising from a frustrated magnetic/ferroelectric state whose signatures are: (1) a strongly enhanced electric permittivity that peaks near a newly observed magnetic anomaly at 100 K, (2) a large (~100%) magneto-dielectric shift that occurs near a metamagnetic transition, and (3) magnetic and electric polarization hysteresis. The GME and electric polarization hinge on a spin-orbit gapping of 5d-bands, rather than the magnitude and spatial dependence of magnetization, as traditionally accepted.

The chemical pressure effect on the structural, transport, magnetic and electronic properties (by measuring X-ray photoemission spectroscopy) of ZnV2O4 has been investigated by doping Mn and Co on the Zinc site of ZnV2O4. With Mn doping the V-V dista nce increases and with Co doping it decreases. The resistivity and thermoelectric power data indicate that as the V-V distance decreases the system moves towards Quantum Phase Transition. The transport data also indicate that the conduction is due to the small polaron hopping. The chemical pressure shows the non-monotonous behaviour of charge gap and activation energy. The XPS study also supports the observation that with decrease of the V-V separation the system moves towards Quantum Phase Transition. On the other hand when Ti is doped on the V-site of ZnV2O4 the metal-metal distance decreases and at the same time the TN also increases.

High temperature superconductivity in cuprates arises from doping a parent Mott insulator by electrons or holes. A central issue is how the Mott gap evolves and the low-energy states emerge with doping. Here we report angle-resolved photoemission spe ctroscopy measurements on a cuprate parent compound by sequential in situ electron doping. The chemical potential jumps to the bottom of the upper Hubbard band upon a slight electron doping, making it possible to directly visualize the charge transfer band and the full Mott gap region. With increasing doping, the Mott gap rapidly collapses due to the spectral weight transfer from the charge transfer band to the gapped region and the induced low-energy states emerge in a wide energy range inside the Mott gap. These results provide key information on the electronic evolution in doping a Mott insulator and establish a basis for developing microscopic theories for cuprate superconductivity.
$^{13}$C nuclear magnetic resonance measurements were performed for a single-component molecular material Zn(tmdt)$_{2}$, in which tmdts form an arrangement similar to the so-called ${kappa}$-type molecular packing in quasi-two-dimensional Mott insul ators and superconductors. Detailed analysis of the powder spectra uncovered local spin susceptibility in the tmdt ${pi}$ orbitals. The obtained shift and relaxation rate revealed the singlet-triplet excitations of the ${pi}$ spins, indicating that Zn(tmdt)$_{2}$ is a spin-gapped Mott insulator with exceptionally large electron correlations compared to conventional molecular Mott systems.

Correlated oxides can exhibit complex magnetic patterns, characterized by domains with vastly different size, shape and magnetic moment spanning the material. Understanding how magnetic domains form in the presence of chemical disorder and their robu stness to temperature variations has been of particular interest, but atomic-scale insight into this problem has been limited. We use spin-polarized scanning tunneling microscopy to image the evolution of spin-resolved modulations originating from antiferromagnetic (AF) ordering in a spin-orbit Mott insulator Sr3Ir2O7 as a function of chemical composition and temperature. We find that replacing only several percent of La for Sr leaves behind nanometer-scale AF puddles clustering away from La substitutions preferentially located in the middle SrO layer within the unit cell. Thermal erasure and re-entry into the low-temperature ground state leads to a spatial reorganization of the AF modulations, indicating multiple stable AF configurations at low temperature. Interestingly, regardless of this rearrangement, the AF puddles maintain scale-invariant fractal geometry in each configuration. Our experiments reveal spatial fluctuations of the AF order in electron doped Sr3Ir2O7, and shed light on its sensitivity to different types of atomic-scale disorder.
