Magnetic excitations in a 5d-based double perovskite Ba$_2$FeReO$_6$

ORAL

Abstract

There is great interest in double perovskite materials, from a fundamental viewpoint of studying correlated electron magnetism as well as spintronics applications. We report theoretical calculations and experimental powder inelastic neutron scattering data on magnetic excitations in the 5d-based double perovskite Ba$_2$FeReO$_6$. We find evidence of multiple spin wave branches consistent with local moment magnetism on Fe sublattice coexisting with highly correlated and spin-orbit coupled local moments on Re.
