The Evident of Coupled Spin and Electron-phonon Interactions in Cd2Os2O7 Pyrochlore

Spin-orbit-driven magnetic structure and excitation in the 5d pyrochlore Cd2Os2O7

Much consideration has been given to the role of spin-orbit coupling (SOC) in 5d oxides, particularly on the formation of novel electronic states and manifested metal-insulator transitions (MITs). SOC plays a dominant role in 5d(5) iridates (Ir(4+)), undergoing MITs both concurrent (pyrochlores) and separated (perovskites) from the onset of magnetic order. However, the role of SOC for other 5d ...

Spectral signatures of spin–phonon and electron–phonon interactions in multiferroic iron borates

High-resolution far-infrared reflection and polarized ellipsometry, as well as Raman scattering temperature-dependent measurements are used to study spin-phonon and electron-phonon interactions in rare-earth (RE) iron borates with the R32 structure of a natural mineral huntite, namely, in RFe3(BO3)4 with R1⁄4Pr, Nd, and Sm. Pronounced peculiarities in the ω(T) dependences at the Néel temperatur...

Phase transition and magnetic structure of pyrochlore oxide Cd2Os2O7

The 5d transition metal oxide Cd2Os2O7 having a pyrochlore lattice of Os atoms exhibits a metal-insulator transition with a magnetic ordering at 227 K, but the magnetic structure in the ordered state and the origin of the transition have not yet been specified. The commensurate magnetic reflection with the propagation vector k = (0, 0, 0) was first observed in the resonant X-ray scattering usin...

Electron-phonon interactions and superconductivity.

Electron-Phonon and Electron-Electron Interactions in Quantum Transport

The objective of this work is t o shed light on electron transport through sub-micron semiconductor structures, where electronic state quantization, electron-electron interactions and electron-phonon interactions are important. We concentrate here on the most developed vertical quantum device, the double barrier resonant tunneling diode. In this work we analyze particle interactions in two stru...
