Abstract
Subject headings
Close
- In Ca2RuO4, the competition of spin-orbit coupling ζ and tetragonal crystal-field splitting ΔCF has been discussed controversially for many years. The orbital occupation depends on ΔCF/ζ, which allows us to address this ratio via the optical spectral weights of the lowest intersite Mott-Hubbard excitations. We study the optical conductivity of Ca2Ru0.99Ti0.01O4 in the range of 0.75-5 eV by ellipsometry, using the large single crystals that can be grown for small Ti concentrations. Based on a local multiplet calculation, our analysis results in 2.4≤ΔCF/ζ≲4 at 15 K. The dominant crystal field yields a ground state close to xy orbital order but spin-orbit coupling is essential for a quantitative description of the properties. Furthermore, we observe a pronounced decrease of ΔCF with increasing temperature, as expected based on the reduction of octahedral distortions.
