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.

We review the magnetic and orbital ordered states in cro{} by performing Resonant Elastic X-ray Scattering (REXS) at the Ru L$_{2,3}$-edges. In principle, the point symmetry at Ru sites does not constrain the direction of the magnetic moment below $T
_N$. However early measurements reported the ordered moment entirely along the $vec{b}$ orthorhombic axis. Taking advantage of the large resonant enhancement of the magnetic scattering close to the Ru L$_2$ and L$_3$ absorption edges, we monitored the azimuthal, thermal and energy dependence of the REXS intensity and find that a canting ($m_c simeq 0.1 m_b$) along the $vec{c}$-orthorhombic axis is present. No signal was found for $m_a$ despite this component also being allowed by symmetry. Such findings are interpreted by a microscopic model Hamiltonian, and pose new constraints on the parameters describing the model. Using the same technique we reviewed the accepted orbital ordering picture. We detected no symmetry breaking associated with the signal increase at the so-called orbital ordering temperature ($simeq 260$ K). We did not find any changes of the orbital pattern even through the antiferromagnetic transition, suggesting that, if any, only a complex rearrangement of the orbitals, not directly measurable using linearly polarized light, can take place.
The strange metal is an enigmatic phase whose properties are irreconcilable with the established Fermi liquid theory of conductors. A fundamental question is whether a strange metal and a Fermi liquid are distinct phases of matter, or whether a mater
ial can be intermediate between or in a superposition of the two. We studied the collective density response of the correlated metal Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ by momentum-resolved electron energy-loss spectroscopy (M-EELS). We discovered that a broad continuum of non-propagating charge fluctuations (a characteristic of strange metals) and also a dispersing Fermi liquid-like collective mode at low energies and long wavelengths coexist in the same material at the same temperature. These features exhibit a spectral weight redistribution and velocity renormalization when we cool the material through the quasiparticle coherence temperature. Our results show not only that strange metal and Fermi liquid phenomena can coexist but also that Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ serves as an ideal test case for studying the interaction between the two.
We have studied the influence of a magnetic field on the thermodynamic properties of Ca$_{2-x}$Sr$_{x}$RuO$_4$ in the intermediate metallic region with tilt and rotational distortions ($0.2leq x leq 0.5$). We find strong and anisotropic thermal expan
sion anomalies at low temperatures, which are suppressed and even reversed by a magnetic field. The metamagnetic transition of Ca$_{1.8}$Sr$_{0.2}$RuO$_4$ is accompanied by a large magnetostriction. Furthermore, we observe a strong magnetic-field dependence of $c_p/T$, that can be explained by magnetic fluctuations.
We report a polarization-resolved Raman spectroscopy study of the orbital dependence of the quasiparticles properties in the prototypical multi-band Fermi liquid Srtextsubscript{2}RuOtextsubscript{4}. We show that the quasiparticle scattering rate di
splays $omega^{2}$ dependence as expected for a Fermi liquid. Besides, we observe a clear polarization-dependence in the energy and temperature dependence of the quasiparticle scattering rate and mass, with the $d_{xz/yz}$ orbital derived quasiparticles showing significantly more robust Fermi liquid properties than the $d_{xy}$ orbital derived ones. The observed orbital dichotomy of the quasiparticles is consistent with the picture of Srtextsubscript{2}RuOtextsubscript{4} as a Hunds metal. Our study establishes Raman scattering as a powerful probe of Fermi liquid properties in correlated metals.
Motivated by recent experimental progress in transition metal oxides with the K$_2$NiF$_4$ structure, we investigate the magnetic and orbital ordering in $alpha$-Sr$_2$CrO$_4$. Using first principles calculations, first we derive a three-orbital Hubb
ard model, which reproduces the {it ab initio} band structure near the Fermi level. The unique reverse splitting of $t_{2g}$ orbitals in $alpha$-Sr$_2$CrO$_4$, with the $3d^2$ electronic configuration for the Cr$^{4+}$ oxidation state, opens up the possibility of orbital ordering in this material. Using real-space Hartree-Fock for multi-orbital systems, we constructed the ground-state phase diagram for the two-dimensional compound $alpha$-Sr$_2$CrO$_4$. We found stable ferromagnetic, antiferromagnetic, antiferro-orbital, and staggered orbital stripe ordering in robust regions of the phase diagram. Furthermore, using the density matrix renormalization group method for two-leg ladders with the realistic hopping parameters of $alpha$-Sr$_2$CrO$_4$, we explore magnetic and orbital ordering for experimentally relevant interaction parameters. Again, we find a clear signature of antiferromagnetic spin ordering along with antiferro-orbital ordering at moderate to large Hubbard interaction strength. We also explore the orbital-resolved density of states with Lanczos, predicting insulating behavior for the compound $alpha$-Sr$_2$CrO$_4$, in agreement with experiments. Finally, an intuitive understanding of the results is provided based on a hierarchy between orbitals, with $d_{xy}$ driving the spin order, while electronic repulsion and the effective one dimensionality of the movement within the $d_{xz}$ and $d_{yz}$ orbitals driving the orbital order.
