摘要:

二维化合物Sr 2 IrO 4中强的自旋-轨道相互作用导致了Jeff=1/2等自旋的形成,其动力学性质是前所未有的。在拉曼散射中,观察到归因于双自旋散射的连续谱。随着入射激光的较高激发能,该信号跨越到非相干背景。这种交叉的特征能量尺度与声子散射中强度共振效应的特征能量尺度相同。它与在共振X射线散射中也很明显的类激子轨道激发有关。非相干激发的交叉和演化被认为是由于它们与自旋激发的耦合。这表明Sr 2 IrO 4中自旋、晶格和电荷自由度的自旋-轨道诱导纠缠。

英文摘要:

Strong spin-orbit interaction in the two dimensional compound Sr2IrO4 leads to the formation of Jeff=1/2 isospins with unprecedented dynamics. In Raman scattering a continuum attributed to double spin scattering is observed. With higher excitation energy of the incident Laser this signal crosses over to an incoherent background. The characteristic energy scale of this cross over is identical to that of intensity resonance effects in phonon scattering. It is related to exciton-like orbital excitations that are also evident in resonant X-Ray scattering. The crossover and evolution of incoherent excitations are proposed to be due to their coupling to spin excitations. This signals a spin-orbit induced entanglement of spin, lattice and charge degrees of freedoms in Sr2IrO4.
