*****************************************************************

Date: Thursday 7^th March

Time: 10:00am-11:00am

Venue: Meeting Room A613, Level A, Lab 2

Seminar: “Spin-Orbit Coupling in Mott Insulators: Unusual Interactions and Possible Exotic Phases”

Speaker: Dr. George Jackeli, Max-Planck Institute for Solid State Research, Germany

Abstract:

Over the last few years, there has been an upsurge of interest in materials in which exotic states may emerge as the result of relativistic spin-orbit interactions. We will discuss insulating iridium oxides from this perspective.
