Title

Spin-density distribution in Ca2RuO4: Searching for magnetic oxygen moments

Abstract

The Mott insulator Ca2RuO4 represents a challenging system to test theoretical models with strong spin-orbit coupling while the complete description of the Mott state has not yet been found. Measurements of the magnon dispersion indicate an extra low-energy branch that was attributed to magnetic moments on the O sites. This interpretation was supported by DFT calculations indeed finding sizeable O moments. Here we propose to directly study the spin-density distribution with the flipping ratio methods by applying the magnetic field along the direction of weak ferromagnetism. This study will unambiguously clarify the impact of magnetic moments on O in Ca2RuO4.
