We investigated the electronic structures of the two-dimensional layered perovskite Sr$_{2}$textit{M}O$_{4}$ (textit{M}=4textit{d} Ru, 4textit{d} Rh, and 5textit{d} Ir) using optical spectroscopy and polarization-dependent O 1textit{s} x-ray absorption spectroscopy. While the ground states of the series of compounds are rather different, their optical conductivity spectra $sigma(omega)$ exhibit similar interband transitions, indicative of the common electronic structures of the 4textit{d} and 5textit{d} layered oxides. The energy splittings between the two $e_{g}$ orbitals, $i.e.$, $d_{3z^{2}-r^{2}}$ and $d_{x^{2}-y^{2}}$, are about 2 eV, which is much larger than those in the pseudocubic and 3textit{d} layered perovskite oxides. The electronic properties of the Sr$_{2}$textit{M}O$_{4}$ compounds are discussed in terms of the crystal structure and the extended character of the 4textit{d} and 5textit{d} orbitals.

Layered van~der~Waals materials of the family TaTMTe$_4$ (TM=Ir, Rh, Ru) are showing very interesting electronic properties. Here we report the synthesis, crystal growth and structural characterization of TaIrTe$_4$, TaRhTe$_4$, TaIr$_{1-x}$Rh$_{x}$T e$_4$ ($x = 0.06$; 0.14; 0.78; 0.92) and Ta$_{1+x}$Ru$_{1-x}$Te$_4$ single crystals. For Ta$_{1+x}$Ru$_{1-x}$Te$_4$ off-stoichiometry is shown. X-ray powder diffraction confirms that TaRhTe4 is isostructural to TaIrTe4. We show that all these compounds are metallic with diamagnetic behavior. Ta$_{1.26(2)}$Ru$_{0.75(2)}$Te$_{4.000(8)}$ exhibits an upturn in the resistivity at low temperatures which is strongly field dependent. Below $T approx 4$K we observed signatures of the superconductivity in the TaIr$_{1-x}$Rh$_{x}$Te$_4$ compounds for $x = 0.92$. Magnetotransport measurements on all samples show weak magnetoresistance (MR) field dependence that is typically quadratic-in-field. However, for TaIr$_{1-x}$Rh$_{x}$Te$_4$ with $xapprox 0.78$, the MR has a linear term dominating in low fields that indicates the presence of Dirac cones in the vicinity of the Fermi energy. For TaRhTe$_4$ series the MR is almost isotropic. We have performed electronic structure calculations for isostructural TaIrTe$_4$ and TaRhTe$_4$ together with the projected total density of states. The main difference is appearance of the Rh-band close to the Fermi level.

The solid solution between the ferromagnetic metal SrRuO$_3$ and the enhanced paramagnetic metal SrRhO$_3$ was recently reported [K. Yamaura et al., Phys. Rev. B 69 (2004) 024410], and an unexpected feature was found in the specific heat data at $x$= 0.9 of SrRu$_{1-x}$Rh$_x$O$_3$. The feature was reinvestigated further by characterizing additional samples with various Ru concentrations in the vicinity of $x$=0.9. Specific heat and magnetic susceptibility data indicate that the feature reflects a peculiar magnetism of the doped perovskite, which appears only in the very narrow composition range 0.85$<$$x$$le$0.95.
One way to induce insulator to metal transitions in the spin-orbit Mott insulator Sr2IrO4 is to substitute iridium with transition metals (Ru, Rh). However, this creates intriguing inhomogeneous metallic states, which cannot be described by a simple doping effect. We detail the electronic structure of the Ru-doped case with angle-resolved photoemission and show that, contrary to Rh, it cannot be connected to the undoped case by a rigid shift. We further identify bands below $E_F$ coexisting with the metallic ones that we assign to non-bonding Ir sites. We rationalize the differences between Rh and Ru by a different hybridization with oxygen, which mediates the coupling to Ir and sensitively affects the effective doping. We argue that the spin-orbit coupling does not control neither the charge transfer nor the transition threshold.
The intermediate valence compounds Yb2M3Ga9 (M = Rh, Ir) exhibit an anisotropic magnetic susceptibility. We report measurements of the temperature dependence of the 4f occupation number, nf(T), for Yb2M3Ga9 as well as the magnetic inelastic neutron s cattering spectrum Smag at 12 and 300 K for Yb2Rh3Ga9. Both nf(T) and Smag were calculated for the Anderson impurity model with crystal field terms within an approach based on the non-crossing approximation. These results corroborate the importance of crystal field effects in these materials; they also suggest that Anderson lattice effects are important to the physics of Yb2M3Ga9.

We investigated the electronic structures of the perovskite-type 4$d$ transition metal oxides Sr$M$O$_3$ ($M$ = Zr, Mo, Ru, and Rh) using their optical conductivity spectra $sigma (omega)$. The interband transitions in $sigma (omega)$ are assigned, a nd some important physical parameters, such as on-site Coulomb repulsion energy $U$, charge transfer energy $Delta_{pd}$, and crystal field splitting $10Dq$, are estimated. It is observed that $Delta _{pd}$ and 10$Dq$ decrease systematically with the increase in the atomic number of the 4$d$ transition metal. Compared to the case of 3$d$ transition metal oxides, the magnitudes of $Delta_{pd}$ and 10$Dq$ are larger, but those of $U$ are smaller. These behaviors can be explained by the more extended nature of the orbitals in the 4$d$ transition metal oxides.
