In this work we study the complex entanglement between spin interactions, electron correlation and Janh-Teller structural instabilities in the 5d$^1$ $J_{eff}=frac{3}{2}$ spin-orbit coupled double perovskite $rm Ba_2NaOsO_6$ using first principles approaches. By combining non-collinear magnetic calculations with multipolar pseudospin Hamiltonian analysis and many-body techniques we elucidate the origin of the observed quadrupolar canted antifferomagnetic. We show that the non-collinear magnetic order originates from Jahn-Teller distortions due to the cooperation of Heisenberg exchange, quadrupolar spin-spin terms and both dipolar and multipolar Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions. We find a strong competition between ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic canted and collinear quadrupolar magnetic phases: the transition from one magnetic order to another can be controlled by the strength of the electronic correlation ($U$) and by the degree of Jahn-Teller distortions.

The consequences of the Jahn-Teller (JT) orbital-lattice coupling for magnetism of pseudospin J_{eff}=1/2 and J_{eff}=0 compounds are addressed. In the former case, represented by Sr_2IrO_4, this coupling generates, through the so-called pseudo-JT ef fect, orthorhombic deformations of a crystal concomitant with magnetic ordering. The orthorhombicity axis is tied to the magnetization and rotates with it under magnetic field. The theory resolves a number of puzzles in Sr_2IrO_4 such as the origin of in-plane magnetic anisotropy and magnon gaps, metamagnetic transition, etc. In J_{eff}=0 systems, the pseudo-JT effect leads to spin-nematic transition well above magnetic ordering, which may explain the origin of `orbital order in Ca_2RuO_4
Heavy transition metal magnets with $J_{rm eff}$ $=$ 1/2 electronic ground states have attracted recent interest due to their penchant for hosting new classes of quantum spin liquids and superconductors. Unfortunately, model systems with ideal $J_{rm eff}$ $=$ 1/2 states are scarce due to the importance of non-cubic local distortions in most candidate materials. In this work, we identify a family of iridium halide systems [i.e. K$_2$IrCl$_6$, K$_2$IrBr$_6$, (NH$_4$)$_2$IrCl$_6$, and Na$_2$IrCl$_6 cdotp $ 6(H$_2$O)] with Ir$^{4+}$ electronic ground states in extremely close proximity to the ideal $J_{rm eff}$ $=$ 1/2 limit, despite a variation in the low-temperature global crystal structures. We also find ordered magnetic ground states for the three anhydrous systems, with single crystal neutron diffraction on K$_2$IrBr$_6$ revealing Type-I antiferromagnetism. This spin configuration is consistent with expectations for significant Kitaev exchange in a face-centered-cubic magnet.
By means of density functional theory plus dynamical mean-field theory (DFT+DMFT) calculations and resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) experiments, we investigate the high-pressure phases of the spin-orbit-coupled $J_{rm{eff}}=3/2$ insulator G aTa$_4$Se$_8$. Its metallic phase, derived from the Mott state by applying pressure, is found to carry $J_{rm{eff}}=3/2$ moments. The characteristic excitation peak in the RIXS spectrum maintains its destructive quantum interference of $J_{rm{eff}}$ at the Ta $L_2$-edge up to 10.4 GPa. Our exact diagonalization based DFT+DMFT calculations including spin-orbit coupling also reveal that the $J_{rm{eff}}=3/2$ character can be clearly identified under high pressure. These results establish the intriguing nature of the correlated metallic magnetic phase, which represents the first confirmed example of $J_{rm{eff}}$=3/2 moments residing in a metal. They also indicate that the pressure-induced superconductivity is likely unconventional and influenced by these $J_{rm{eff}}=3/2$ moments. Based on a self-energy analysis, we furthermore propose the possibility of doping-induced superconductivity related to a spin-freezing crossover.
Ca3CoMnO6 is composed of CoMnO6 chains made up of face-sharing CoO6 trigonal prisms and MnO6 octahedra. The structural, magnetic, and ferroelectric properties of this compound were investigated on the basis of density functional theory calculations. Ca3CoMnO6 is found to undergo a Jahn-Teller distortion associated with the CoO6 trigonal prisms containing high-spin Co2+ (d7) ions, which removes the C3 rotational symmetry and hence uniaxial magnetism. However, the Jahn-Teller distortion is not strong enough to fully quench the orbital moment of the high-spin Co2+ ions thereby leading to an electronic state with substantial magnetic anisotropy. The Jahn-Teller distorted Ca3CoMnO6 in the magnetic ground state with up-up-down-down spin arrangement is predicted to have electric polarizations much greater than experimentally observed. Implications of the discrepancy between theory and experiment were discussed.
Polycrystalline samples of NaYbO$_2$ are investigated by bulk magnetization and specific-heat measurements, as well as by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and electron spin resonance (ESR) as local probes. No signatures of long-range magnetic order a re found down to 0.3~K, evidencing a highly frustrated spin-liquid-like ground state in zero field. Above 2,T, signatures of magnetic order are observed in thermodynamic measurements, suggesting the possibility of a field-induced quantum phase transition. The $^{23}$Na NMR relaxation rates reveal the absence of magnetic order and persistent fluctuations down to 0.3~K at very low fields and confirm the bulk magnetic order above 2~T. The $H$-$T$ phase diagram is obtained and discussed along with the existing theoretical concepts for layered spin-$frac{1}{2}$ triangular-lattice antiferromagnets
