Research Progress on 5d Strong SOC Oxide SrIrO₃ Low-Dimensional Systems
As one of the typical representatives of 5d transition metal oxides, the perovskite-structured SrIrO3 (SIO) exhibits comparable spin-orbit coupling (SOC) and electron correlation energy (U). The competition between these two factors leads to a variety of novel quantum effects in SIO, such as metal-insulator transitions, paramagnetic-antiferromagnetic transitions, and Mott insulator-Slater insulator intermediate states. At the … Read more
