Emergent odd-parity multipoles and magnetoelectric effects on a diamond structure: Implication for the 5d transition metal oxides AOsO4(A=

Abstract: We report our theoretical predictions on the linear magnetoelectric (ME) effects originating from odd-parity multipoles associated with spontaneous spin and orbital ordering on a diamond structure. We derive a twoorbital model for d electrons in eg orbitals by including the effective spin-orbit coupling which arises from the mixing between eg and t2g orbitals. We show that the model acquires a net antisymmetric spin-orbit coupling once staggered spin and orbital orders occur spontaneously. The staggered orders… Show more

“…Once the systems undergo phase transitions causing inversion symmetry breaking, order parameters are represented by unconventional odd-parity multipoles, such as magnetic toroidal dipole [5][6][7][8][9], magnetic quadrupole [10][11][12], electric toroidal quadrupole [13,14], and electric octupole [15][16][17]. In previous studies, such odd-parity multipoles have often been described by the staggered (antiferroic) alignment of even-parity multipoles on a crystal structure without local inversion symmetry at an atomic site; prototypes are the zigzag chain [7,18], honeycomb structure [6,8], and diamond structure [19,20]. Such odd-parity multipoles formed by an antiferroic alignment of the even-parity multipoles like magnetic dipole and electric quadrupole are denoted as cluster odd-parity multipoles.…”

“…Experiments have indeed discovered an oddparity nematic metal in Cd 2 Re 2 O 7 below T c ∼ 200 K via optical second-harmonic generation [16]. Other proposed materials for hosting multipolar orders include A 2 OsO 4 (with A = K,Rb,Cs) [17].However, to the best of our knowledge, there have been no clear d-orbital candidates for hosting octupolar or-ders. Indeed, there appears to be no microscopic understanding of what are the key ingredients to potentially stabilize such octupolar phases.…”

“…Multipolar orders have been extensively studied in f -electron compounds [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16] where spin-orbit coupling and interactions dominate over weaker crystal field effects. However, there is growing evidence for such exotic "higher multipoles" in a wide range of heavy d-orbital metals such as LiOsO 3 and Cd 2 Re 2 O 7 which may exhibit odd-parity nematic orders [17,18], or quadrupolar orders as proposed in A 2 OsO 4 (with A = K,Rb,Cs) [19].…”
