We discuss Mott insulating and metallic phases of a model with $e_g$ orbital degeneracy to understand physics of Mn perovskite compounds. Quantum Monte Carlo and Lanczos diagonalization results are discussed in this model. To reproduce experimental results on charge gap and Jahn-Teller distortions, we show that a synergy between the strong correlation effects and the Jahn-Teller coupling is important. The incoherent charge dynamics and strong charge fluctuations are characteristic of the metallic phase accompanied with critical enhancement of short-ranged orbital correlation near the insulator.

We present a temperature-dependent resonant elastic soft x-ray scattering (REXS) study of the metal-insulator transition in Sr3(Ru1-xMnx)2O7, performed at both Ru and Mn L-edges. Resonant magnetic superstructure reflections, which indicate an incipie
nt instability of the parent compound, are detected below the transition. Based on modelling of the REXS intensity from randomly distributed Mn impurities, we establish the inhomogeneous nature of the metal-insulator transition, with an effective percolation threshold corresponding to an anomalously low x<0.05 Mn substitution.
We investigated the nature of transport and magnetic properties in SrIr0.5Ru0.5O3, (SIRO) which has characteristics intermediate between a correlated non-Fermi liquid state and an itinerant Fermi liquid state, by growing perovskite thin films on vari
ous substrates (SrTiO3 (001), (LaAlO3)0.3(Sr2TaAlO6)0.7 (001) and LaAlO3 (001)). We observed systematic variation of underlying substrate dependent metal-to-insulator transition temperatures at 80 K on SrTiO3, 90 K on (LaAlO3)0.3(Sr2TaAlO6)0.7 and 100 K on LaAlO3) in resistivity. Resistivity in the metallic region follows a T3/2 power law; whereas insulating nature at low T is due to the localization effect. Magnetoresistance (MR) measurement of SIRO on SrTiO3 (001) shows negative MR upto 25 K and positive MR above 25 K, with negative MR proportional to B1/2 and positive MR proportional to B2; consistent with the localized-to-normal transport crossover dynamics. Furthermore, observed spin glass like behavior of SIRO on SrTiO3 (001) in the localized regime, validates the hypothesis that (Anderson) localization favors glassy ordering. These remarkable features provide a promising approach for future applications and of fundamental interest in oxide thin films.
We present a temperature-dependent x-ray absorption (XAS) and resonant elastic x-ray scattering (REXS) study of the metal-insulator transition (MIT) in Sr3(Ru1-xMnx)2O7. The XAS results reveal that the MIT drives the onset of local antiferromagnetic
correlations around the Mn impurities, a precursor of the long-range antiferromagnetism detected by REXS at T_order<T_MIT. This establishes that the MIT is of the Mott-type (electronic correlations) as opposed to Slater-type (magnetic order). While this behavior is induced by Mn impurities, the (1/4,1/4,0) order exists for a wide range of Mn concentrations, and points to an inherent instability of the parent compound.
We report on a combined measurement of high-resolution x-ray diffraction on powder and Raman scattering on single crystalline NiS2-xSex samples that exhibit the insulator-metal transition with Se doping. Via x-rays, an abrupt change in the bond lengt
h between Ni and S (Se) ions was observed at the transition temperature, in sharp contrast to the almost constant bond length between chalcogen ions. Raman scattering, a complementary technique with the unique sensitivity to the vibrations of chalcogen bonds, revealed no anomalies in the phonon spectrum, consistent with the x-ray diffraction results. This indicates the important role of the interaction between Ni and S (Se) in the insulator-metal transition. The potential implication of this interpretation is discussed in terms of current theoretical models.
We study the exchange interactions and resulting magnetic phases in the honeycomb cobaltates. For a broad range of trigonal crystal fields acting on Co2+ ions, the low-energy pseudospin-1/2 Hamiltonian is dominated by bond-dependent Ising couplings t
hat constitute the Kitaev model. The non-Kitaev terms nearly vanish at small values of trigonal field Delta, resulting in spin liquid ground state. Considering Na3Co2SbO6 as an example, we find that this compound is proximate to a Kitaev spin liquid phase, and can be driven into it by slightly reducing Delta by sim 20 meV, e.g., via strain or pressure control. We argue that due to the more localized nature of the magnetic electrons in 3d compounds, cobaltates offer the most promising search area for Kitaev model physics.
