A large swath of strongly correlated electron systems can be associated with the phenomena of preserved entropy and fragile magnetism. In this overview we present our thoughts and plans for the discovery and development of lanthanide and transition metal based, strongly correlated systems that are revealed by suppressed, fragile magnetism or grow out of preserved entropy. We will present and discuss current examples such as YbBiPt, YbAgGe, YbFe2Zn20, PrAg2In, BaFe2As2, CaFe2As2, LaCrSb3 and LaCrGe3 as part of our motivation and to provide illustrative examples.

Kondo-based semimetals and semiconductors are of extensive current interest as a viable platform for strongly correlated states. It is thus important to understand the routes towards such dilute-carrier correlated states. One established pathway is t
hrough Kondo effect in metallic non-magnetic analogues. Here we advance a new mechanism, through which Kondo-based semimetals develop out of conduction electrons with a low carrier-density in the presence of an even number of rare-earth sites. We demonstrate this effect by studying the Kondo material Yb3Ir4Ge13 along with its closed-f-shell counterpart, Lu3Ir4Ge13. Through magnetotransport, optical conductivity and thermodynamic measurements, we establish that the correlated semimetallic state of Yb3Ir4Ge13 below its Kondo temperature originates from the Kondo effect of a low carrier conduction-electron background. In addition, it displays fragile magnetism at very low temperatures, which, in turn, can be tuned to a non Fermi liquid regime through Lu-for-Yb substitution. These findings are connected with recent theoretical studies in simplified models. Our results open an entirely new venue to explore the strong correlation physics in a semimetallic environment.
Disorder can have a dominating influence on correlated and quantum materials leading to novel behaviors which have no clean limit counterparts. In magnetic systems, spin and exchange disorder can provide access to quantum criticality, frustration, an
d spin dynamics, but broad tunability of these responses and a deeper understanding of strong limit disorder is lacking. In this work, we demonstrate that high entropy oxides present an unexplored route to designing quantum materials in which the presence of strong local compositional disorder hosted on a positionally ordered lattice can be used to generate highly tunable emergent magnetic behavior--from macroscopically ordered states to frustration-driven dynamic spin interactions. Single crystal La(Cr0.2Mn0.2Fe0.2Co0.2Ni0.2)O3 films are used as a structurally uniform model system hosting a magnetic sublattice with massive microstate disorder in the form of site-to-site spin and exchange type inhomogeneity. A classical Heisenberg model is found to be sufficient to describe how compositionally disordered systems can paradoxically host long-range magnetic uniformity and demonstrates that balancing the populating elements based on their discrete quantum parameters can be used to give continuous control over ordering types and critical temperatures. Theory-guided experiments show that composite exchange values derived from the complex mix of microstate interactions can be used to design the required compositional parameters for a desired response. These predicted materials are synthesized and found to possess an incipient quantum critical point when magnetic ordering types are designed to be in direct competition; this leads to highly controllable exchange bias sensitivity in the monolithic single crystal films previously accessible only in intentionally designed bilayer heterojunctions.
Magnetic Compton scattering, x-ray magnetic circular dichroism spectroscopy and bulk magnetometry measurements are performed on a set of medium (NiFeCo and NiFeCoCr) and high (NiFeCoCrPd and NiFeCoCrMn) entropy Cantor-Wu alloys. The bulk spin momentu
m densities determined by magnetic Compton scattering are remarkably isotropic, and this is a consequence of the smearing of the electronic structure by disorder scattering of the electron quasiparticles. Non-zero x-ray magnetic circular dichroism signals are observed for every element in every alloy indicating differences in the populations of the majority and minority spin states implying finite magnetic moments. When Cr is included in the solid solution, the Cr spin moment is unambiguously antiparallel to the total magnetic moment, while a vanishingly small magnetic moment is observed for Mn, despite calculations indicating a large moment. Some significant discrepancies are observed between the experimental bulk and surface magnetic moments. Despite the lack of quantitative agreement, the element specific surface magnetic moments seem to be qualitatively reasonable.
We consider the stability of fragile topological bands protected by space-time inversion symmetry in the presence of strong electron-electron interactions. At the single-particle level, the topological nature of the bands prevents the opening of a ga
p between them. In contrast, we show that when the fragile bands are half filled, interactions can open a gap in the many-body spectrum without breaking any symmetry or mixing degrees of freedom from remote bands. Furthermore, the resulting ground state is not topologically ordered. Thus, a fragile topological band structure does not present an obstruction to forming a featureless insulator ground state. Our construction relies on the formation of fermionic bound states of two electrons and one hole, known as trions. The trions form a band whose coupling to the electronic band enables the gap opening. This result may be relevant to the gapped state indicated by recent experiments in magic angle twisted bilayer graphene at charge neutrality.
Strongly correlated quantum matter exhibits a rich variety of remarkable properties, but the organizing principles that underlie the behavior remain to be established. Graphene heterostructures, which can host narrow moire electron bands that amplify
the correlation effect, represent a new setting to make progress on this overarching issue. In such correlated moire systems, an insulating state is a prominent feature of the phase diagram and may hold the key to understanding the basic physics. Here we advance the notion of a fragile insulator, a correlation-driven insulating state that is on the verge of a delocalization transition into a bad metal. Using a realistic multiorbital Hubbard model as a prototype for narrow band moire systems, we realize such a fragile insulator and demonstrate a nematic order in this state as well as in the nearby bad metal regime. Our results are consistent with the observed electronic anisotropy in the graphene moire systems and provide a natural understanding of what happens when the insulator is tuned into a bad metal. We propose the fragile insulator and the accompanying bad metal as competing states at integer fillings that analogously anchor the overall phase diagram of the correlated moire systems and beyond.
