using soft-X-ray angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (SX-ARPES). Our results provide direct evidence of an insulator-to-metal transition that occurs upon increasing the dimensionality of the IrO
-plane structure. This transition occurs when the spin-orbit-coupled 
= 1/2 band changes its behavior in the dispersion relation and moves across the Fermi energy. By scanning the photon energy over 350 eV, we reveal the 3D Fermi surface in SrIrO and 
-dependent oscillations of photoelectron intensity in SrIrO
. To corroborate the physics deduced using low-energy ARPES studies, we propose to utilize SX-ARPES as a powerful complementary technique, as this method surveys more than one whole Brillouin zone and provides a panoramic view of electronic structures.

Times Cited Count：59 Percentile：88.48(Physics, Multidisciplinary)We investigate LiVS and LiVSe with a triangular lattice as itinerant analogues of LiVO known for the formation of a valence-bond solid (VBS) state out of an S = 1 frustrated magnet. LiVS, which is located at the border between a metal and a correlated insulator, shows a first order transition from a paramagnetic metal to a VBS insulator at T
305 K upon cooling. The presence of a VBS state in the close vicinity of insulator-metal transition may suggest the importance of itinerancy in the formation of a VBS state. We argue that the high temperature metallic phase of LiVS has a pseudogap, likely originating from the VBS fluctuation. LiVSe was found to be a paramagnetic metal down to 2 K.

Times Cited Count：45 Percentile：82.5(Physics, Applied)Local structure analysis of Cu and Ge atoms in the negative thermal expansion material MnCuGeN was conducted using X-ray absorption fine structure measurements. The temperature dependence of the interatomic distance was found to reflect the macroscopic negative thermal expansion both for Cu-Mn and Ge-Mn shells, although the magnitude of the relative change was much larger for Ge-Mn than Cu-Mn. An enhanced anomaly of the Debye-Waller factor was observed for the Ge-Mn shell in the temperature region of the negative expansion, indicating the presence of static local disorder around Ge impurities. These local structure anomalies strongly suggest that the local and inhomogeneous strain around Ge is essential in broadening the discontinuous volume contraction.

In this Letter, we address the unique role of the "magic" element, Ge, for such broadening in MnCuGeN. We present evidence for a local lattice distortion well described by the low-temperature tetragonal (
) structure of MnGeN for a range of 
, where the overall structure remains cubic. This structural instability shows a strong correlation with the broadness of the growth of the ordered magnetic moment and, hence, is considered to trigger the broadening of the volume change.

The present neutron study revealed that not only a cubic crystal structure, but also a antiperovskite spin structure, is a key ingredient of the large magneto-volume effect in this itinerant electron system. The large magneto-volume effect is possibly ascribed to the geometrical frustration originating from the corner-shared octahedra of the antiperovskite sturucture.

The so-called checkerboard local-density-of-state modulation manifests in the spectroscopic map of the optimally-doped sample. In addition, spatially-inhomogeneous energy gap is observed. The gap tends to be buried at elevated temperatures and correlates with the checkerboard modulation. These results suggest that the gap is related to superconductivity which coexists with the checkerboard modulation.

The magnetic field dependence suggests existence of magnetic anisotropy in the Nel state, which is consistent with our previous inelastic studies.

CdCrO has the spinel structure, in which geometrical frustration exists between the Cr
moments located at the corners of the tetrahedron. It shows an incommensurate antiferromagnetic ordering below 
=7.8K with a characteristic wave vector of 
(
). We first performed a 1D polarized neutron analysis and determined that the Cr moments has a planer anisotropy in the plane, indicating that the magnetic structure is spiral. Finally, the 3D polarized neutron analysis using a CRYOPAD on TAS-1 at JRR-3 determined that the magnetic structure is elliptical spiral in the plane with ellipsoid slightly elongated along the axis. The origin of the structure will be discussed.
