Structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of nearly ideal J eff = 1/2 iridium halides
Heavy transition metal magnets with J e f f = 1 2 electronic ground states have attracted recent interest due to their penchant for hosting new classes of quantum spin liquids and superconductors. Unfortunately, model systems with ideal J e f f = 1 2 states are scarce due to the importance of noncubic local distortions in most candidate materials. In this work, we identify a family of iridium halide systems [i.e., K 2 Ir Cl 6 , K 2 Ir Br 6 , ( NH 4 ) 2 Ir Cl 6 , and Na 2 Ir Cl 6 · 6 ( H 2 O ) ] with Ir 4 + electronic ground states exhibiting extremely small deviations from the ideal J e f f = 1 2 limit. We also find ordered magnetic ground states for the three anhydrous systems, with single-crystal neutron diffraction on K 2 Ir Br 6 revealing type-I antiferromagnetism. This spin configuration is consistent with expectations for significant Kitaev exchange in a face-centered-cubic magnet. This work establishes that incorporating isolated Ir X 6 octahedra in materials, where X is a halogen ion with a low electronegativity, is an effective design principle for realizing unprecedented proximity to the pure J e f f = 1 2 state. However, at the same time, we highlight undeniable deviations from this ideal state, even in clean materials with ideal Ir X 6 octahedra as inferred from the global cubic crystal structures.

Enhanced Electron-Phonon Coupling for Charge-Density-Wave Formation in La 1.8-$x$ Eu 0.2 Sr $x$ CuO 4+$δ$
Charge density wave (CDW) correlations are prevalent in all copper-oxide superconductors. While CDWs in conventional metals are driven by coupling between lattice vibrations and electrons, the role of the electron-phonon coupling (EPC) in cuprate CDWs is strongly debated. Using Cu L 3 edge resonant inelastic x-ray scattering, we study the CDW and Cu-O bond-stretching phonons in the stripe-ordered cuprate La 1.8-x Eu 0.2 Sr x CuO 4+δ . In this work, we investigate the interplay between charge order and EPC as a function of doping and temperature and find that the EPC is enhanced in a narrow momentum region around the CDW ordering vector. By detuning the incident photon energy from the absorption resonance, we extract an EPC matrix element at the CDW ordering vector of M ≃ 0.36 eV , which decreases to M ≃ 0.30 eV at high temperature in the absence of the CDW. Our results suggest a feedback mechanism in which the CDW enhances the EPC which, in turn, further stabilizes the CDW.
