In correlated electron systems such as cuprate superconductors and colossal magnetoresistive (CMR) oxides there is often a tendency for a nanoscale self-organization of electrons that can give rise to exotic properties and to extreme non-linear responses. The driving mechanisms for this self-organization are highly debated, especially in the CMR oxides in which two types of self-organized stripes of charge and orbital order coexist with each other. By utilizing angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy measurements over a wide doping range, we show that one type of stripe is exclusively linked to long flat portions of nested Fermi surface, while the other type prefers to be commensurate with the real space lattice but also may be driven away from this by the Fermi surface. Complementarily, the Fermi surface also appears to be driven away from its non-interacting value at certain doping levels, giving rise to a host of unusual electronic properties.

We present angle-resolved photoemission studies of (La1-zPrz)2-2xSr1+2xMn2O7 with x=0.4 and z=0.1,0.2 and 0.4 along with density functional theory calculations and x-ray scattering data. Our results show that the bilayer splitting in the ferromagneti c metallic phase of these materials is small, if not completely absent. The charge carriers are therefore confined to a single MnO2-layer, which in turn results in a strongly nested Fermi surface. In addition to this, the spectral function also displays clear signatures of an electronic ordering instability well below the Fermi level. The increase of the corresponding interaction strength with z and its magnitude of ~400 meV make the coupling to a bare phonon highly unlikely. Instead we conclude that fluctuating order, involving electronic and lattice degrees of freedom, cause the observed renormalisation of the spectral features.
A detailed study of the electronic structure and magnetic configurations of the 50 % hole-doped double layered manganite LaSr$_2$Mn$_2$O$_7$ is presented. We demonstrate that the on-site Coulomb correlation (U) of Mn d electrons {it (i)} significantl y modifies the electronic structure, magnetic ordering (from FM to AFM), and interlayer exchange interactions, and {it (ii)} promotes strong anisotropy in electrical transport, reducing the effective hopping parameter along the {it c} axis for electrically active $e_g$ electrons. This findng is consistent with observations of anisotropic transport -- a property which sets this manganite apart from conventional 3D systems. A half-metallic band structure is predicted with both the LSDA and LSDA+U methods. The experimentally observed A-type AFM ordering in LaSr$_2$Mn$_2$O$_7$ is found to be energetically more favorable with U $geq$ 7 eV. A simple interpretation of interlayer exchange coupling is given within double and super-exchange mechanisms based on the dependencies on U of the effective exchange parameters and $e_g$ state sub-band widths.

Sr$_2$RuO$_4$, an unconventional superconductor, is known to possess an incommensurate spin density wave instability driven by Fermi surface nesting. Here we report a static spin density wave ordering with a commensurate propagation vector $q_c$ = (0 .25 0.25 0) in Fe-doped Sr$_2$RuO$_4$, despite the magnetic fluctuations persisting at the incommensurate wave vectors $q_{ic}$ = (0.3 0.3 L) as in the parent compound. The latter feature is corroborated by the first principles calculations, which show that Fe substitution barely changes the nesting vector of the Fermi surface. These results suggest that in addition to the known incommensurate magnetic instability, Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ is also in proximity to a commensurate magnetic tendency that can be stabilized via Fe doping.

The nature of the phase transitions in La$_{1-x}$Ca$_x$MnO$_3$ and Pr$_{0.48}$Ca$_{0.52}$MnO$_3$ has been probed using heat capacity and magnetisation measurements. The phase transition associated with the onset of the stripe phase has been identifie d as second order. The model of a Peierls transition in a disordered system (a `dirty Peierls transition) is shown to provide an extremely good fit to this transition. In addition, an unexpected magnetic phase has been revealed in low temperature Pr$_{0.48}$Ca$_{0.52}$MnO$_3$, associated with an excess heat capacity over a wide temperature range compared to La$_{1-x}$Ca$_x$MnO$_3$.

By performing angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy of the bilayer colossal magnetoresistive (CMR) manganite, $La_{2-2x}Sr_{1+2x}Mn_{2}O_{7}$, we provide the complete mapping of the Fermi level spectral weight topology. Clear and unambiguous bila yer splitting of the in-plane 3d$_{x^2-y^2}$ band, mapped throughout the Brillouin zone, and the full mapping of the 3d$_{3z^2-r^2}$ band are reported. Peculiar doping and temperature dependencies of these bands imply that as transition from the ferromagnetic metallic phase approaches, either as a function of doping or temperature, coherence along the c-axis between planes within the bilayer is lost, resulting in reduced interplane coupling. These results suggest that interplane coupling plays a large role in the CMR transition.
