We address the concomitant metal-insulator transition (MIT) and antiferromagnetic ordering
in the novel pyrochlore iridate Eu 2 Ir 2 O 7 by combining x-ray absorption spectroscopy, x …

Abstract The A 2 Ir 2 O 7 pyrochlores with A= rare-earth element have been the subject of
intense scientific interest for their complex magnetic and conductive properties. The previous …

Antiferromagnetic (AFM) pyrochlore iridates are a fertile ground to hunt for a Weyl
semimetallic state characterized by a linear crossing of two nondegenerate bands near the …

Here, we present magnetotransport properties of Sm 2 Ir 2 O 7 (111) single-crystalline
epitaxial thin films grown with different strengths of compressive strain. A long-range …

Exploration of low temperature phase transitions associated with quantum critical point is
one of the most mystifying fields of research which is under intensive focus in recent times. In …

We study the pyrochlore series (Eu 1− x Bi x) 2 Ir 2 O 7 for 0≤ x≤ 1. We show that for small
x, the lattice undergoes an anomalous contraction but the time reversal symmetry breaking …

Spin-orbit coupling (SOC) plays a crucial role in magnetic and electronic properties of 5 d
iridates. In this paper we have experimentally investigated the structural and physical …

The pyrochlore oxides O 7 exhibit a complex interplay between geometrical frustration,
electronic correlations, and spin–orbit coupling (SOC), due to the lattice structure and active …

All-In-All-Out/All-Out-All-In (AIAO/AOAI) ordering in pyrochlore iridates provides an intriguing
platform for investigating exotic phenomena such as the topological Hall effect, Berry …

We report the stoichiometric epitaxial growth of the Eu 2 Ir 2 O 7 (111) thin film on YSZ
substrate by a two-step solid phase epitaxy (SPE) method. An optimized post-annealing …
