Probing spin correlations using angle-resolved photoemission in a coupled metallic/Mott insulator system

Abstract: T.O.), Andy.Mackenzie@cpfs.mpg.de (A.P.M.), philip.king@st-andrews.ac.uk (P.D.C.K.) † These authors contributed equally to this work.Abstract: A nearly free electron metal and a Mott insulating state can be thought of as opposite ends of possibilities for the motion of electrons in a solid. In the magnetic oxide metal PdCrO 2 , these two coexist as alternating layers. Using angle resolved photoemission, we surprisingly find sharp band-like features in the one-electron removal spectral function of the correlate… Show more

“…Previous DFT calculation of exchange parameters reported in Ref. [31] unfortunately did not take into account strong Coulomb correlations, which were recently shown to be important for PdCrO 2 [9,10]. Also, only two in-plane isotropic exchange parameters were calculated there, namely, between the nearest and next-nearest neighbors.…”

“…According to Ref. [9], weak binding energy dependence and the Cr character of the reconstructed weight indicate that the spectroscopic properties of PdCrO 2 are essentially determined by a Kondo coupling of nearly free electrons in metallic layers, with localized electrons in a Mott insulating state in adjacent layers. Thus, the system can be described by the Anderson lattice model (or s − d exchange model, which corresponds to the case where d states are not close to the Fermi level).…”

“…The coherence length is substantially larger than the spin precession length, making this a promising system for spintronic applications. On a broader perspective, atomic-scale studies of the transition metal oxide terminations of other delafossites provide an opportunity to study the interplay between ISB, SOC, electronic correlations, and magnetic order ( 32 ).…”

“…We subsequently employed the FT-HI method ( 38 ) to evaluate all SEIs between the 3 2 quadruplet for several first Np–Np coordination shells. Previously, the FT-HI method was applied to systems with conventional magnetic primary order ( 52 , 57 ). Within this method, matrix elements of intersite coupling for the Np–Np bond read where is the corresponding element of the 3 2 density matrix on site , is the derivative of atomic (HI) self-energy over a fluctuation of the element, and is the intersite Green’s function for the Np–Np bond evaluated within the DFT + HI.…”
