The interplay of nearly degenerate orders in quantum materials can lead to a myriad of emergent phases. A prominent case is that of the high-Tc cuprates for which the relationship between superconductivity and a short-ranged, incommensurate charge density wave in the CuO2 planes involving the dx2-y2 orbitals (Cu-CDW) is a subject of great current interest. Strong modifications of the strength and coherence of this Cu-CDW have been achieved by applying large magnetic fields, uniaxial pressure, or via the interfacial coupling in cuprate/manganite multilayers. However, such modifications do not alter the dominant orbital character. Here we investigate cuprate/manganite multilayers with resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) and show that a new kind of Cu-based density wave order can be induced that has not been previously observed in the cuprates. This order has an unusually small wave vector of Q = 0.096 reciprocal lattice units (r.l.u.), a large correlation length of about 40 nm, and a predominant dz2 orbital character, instead of the typical dx2-y2 character. Its appearance is determined by the hole doping of the manganite which is a key parameter controlling the interfacial charge transfer and orbital reconstruction. We anticipate that the observation of a previously unknown type of density wave order at the YBCO interface will allow for fresh perspectives on the enigmatic relation between superconductivity and charge order (CO) in the cuprates.

Heterostructures of mixed-valence manganites are still under intense scrutiny, due to the occurrence of exotic quantum phenomena linked to electronic correlation and interfacial composition. For instance, if two anti-ferromagnetic insulators as LaMnO
$_3$ and SrMnO$_3$ are grown in a (001)-oriented superlattice, a half-metallic ferromagnet may form, provided that the thickness is sufficiently small to allow tunneling across interfaces. In this article, we employ electronic structure calculations to show that all the layers of a (111)-oriented LaMnO$_3$|SrMnO$_3$ superlattice retain a half-metallic ferromagnetic character for a much larger thickness than in its (001) counterpart. This behavior is shown to be linked to the charge transfer across the interface, favored by the octahedral connectivity between the layers. This also results in a symmetry-induced quenching of the Jahn-Teller distortions, which are replaced by breathing modes. The latter are coupled to charge and spin oscillations, whose components have a pure e g character. Most interestingly, the magnetization reaches its maximum value inside the LaMnO$_3$ region and not at the interface, which is fundamentally different from what observed for the (001) orientation. The analysis of the inter-atomic exchange coupling shows that the magnetic order arises from the double-exchange mechanism, despite competing interactions inside the SrMnO$_3$ region. Finally, the van Vleck distortions and the spin oscillations are found to be crucially affected by the variation of Hunds exchange and charge doping, which allows us to speculate that our system behaves as a Hunds metal, creating an interesting connection between manganites and nickelates.
We present low-temperature and high-field magnetotransport data on SrTiO3-LaAlO3 interfaces. The resistance shows hysteresis in magnetic field and a logarithmic relaxation as a function of time. Oscillations in the magnetoresistance are observed, sho
wing a square root periodicity in the applied magnetic field, both in large-area unstructured samples as well as in a structured sample. An explanation in terms of a commensurability condition of edge states in a highly mobile two-dimensional electron gas between substrate step edges is suggested.
We report on temperature dependent measurements of the Longitudinal Spin Seebeck Effect (LSSE) in the mixed valent manganite La$_{0.7}$Ca$_{0.3}$MnO$_3$. By disentangling the contribution arising due to the Anisotropic Nernst effect, we observe that
these two thermally driven phenomena vary disparately with temperature. In a narrow low temperature regime, the LSSE exhibits a $T^{0.55}$ dependence, which matches well with that predicted by the magnon-driven spin current model. Across the double exchange driven paramagnetic-ferromagnetic transition, the LSSE exponent is significantly higher than the magnetization one. These observations highlights the importance of individually ascertaining the temperature evolution of different mechanisms which contribute to the measured spin Seebeck signal.
We demonstrate that delta-doping can be used to create a dimensionally confined region of metallic ferromagnetism in an antiferromagnetic (AF) manganite host, without introducing any explicit disorder due to dopants or frustration of spins. Delta-dop
ed carriers are inserted into a manganite superlattice (SL) by a digital-synthesis technique. Theoretical consideration of these additional carriers show that they cause a local enhancement of ferromagnetic (F) double-exchange with respect to AF superexchange, resulting in local canting of the AF spins. This leads to a highly modulated magnetization, as measured by polarized neutron reflectometry. The spatial modulation of the canting is related to the spreading of charge from the doped layer, and establishes a fundamental length scale for charge transfer, transformation of orbital occupancy and magnetic order in these manganites. Furthermore, we confirm the existence of the canted, AF state as was predicted by de Gennes [P.-G. de Gennes, Phys. Rev. 118, 141 (1960)], but had remained elusive.
Complex oxide systems have attracted considerable attention because of their fascinating properties, including the magnetic ordering at the conducting interface between two band insulators, such as LaAlO3 (LAO) and SrTiO3 (STO). However, the manipula
tion of the spin degree of freedom at the LAO/STO heterointerface has remained elusive. Here, we have fabricated hybrid magnetic tunnel junctions consisting of Co and LAO/STO ferromagnets with the insertion of a Ti layer in between, which clearly exhibit magnetic switching and the tunnelling magnetoresistance (TMR) effect below 10 K. The magnitude and the of the TMR are strongly dependent on the direction of the rotational magnetic field parallel to the LAO/STO plane, which is attributed to a strong Rashba-type spin orbit coupling in the LAO/STO heterostructure. Our study provides a further support for the existence of the macroscopic ferromagnetism at LAO/STO heterointerfaces and opens a novel route to realize interfacial spintronics devices.
