We discuss phenomena arising from the combined influence of electron correlation and spin-
orbit coupling (SOC), with an emphasis on emergent quantum phases and transitions in …

Motivated by the report of superconductivity in bilayer La 3 Ni 2 O 7 at high pressure, we
examine the interacting electrons in this system. First-principles many-body theory is utilized …

We employ reactive molecular-beam epitaxy to synthesize the metastable perovskite SrIrO 3
and utilize in situ angle-resolved photoemission to reveal its electronic structure as an exotic …

Strong spin–orbit coupling fosters exotic electronic states such as topological insulators and
superconductors, but the combination of strong spin–orbit and strong electron–electron …

In condensed matter systems, out of a large number of interacting degrees of freedom
emerge weakly coupled quasiparticles (QPs), in terms of which most physical properties are …

Using ab initio methods for correlated electrons in solids, we investigate the metal-insulator
transition across the Ruddlesden-Popper (RP) series of iridates and explore the robustness …

We present an angle-resolved photoemission study of the electronic structure of the three-
dimensional pyrochlore iridate Nd 2 Ir 2 O 7 through its magnetic metal-insulator transition …

Excitonic insulators are usually considered to form via the condensation of a soft charge
mode of bound electron-hole pairs. This, however, presumes that the soft exciton is of spin …

Understanding the role of electron correlations in strong spin-orbit transition-metal oxides is
key to the realization of numerous exotic phases including spin-orbit–assisted Mott …

Perovskite SrIrO3 has long been proposed as an exotic semimetal induced by the interplay
between the spin-orbit coupling and electron correlations. However, its low-lying electronic …
