Prior to 2010, most research on the physics and chemistry of transition metal oxides was dominated by compounds of the 3d-transition elements such as Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, and Cu. These materials exhibited novel, important phenomena that include giant magnetoresistance in manganites, as well as high-temperature superconductivity in doped La2CuO4 and related cuprates. The discovery in 1994 of an exotic superconducting state in Sr2RuO4 shifted some interest toward ruthenates. Moreover, the realization in 2008 that a novel variant of the classic Mott metal-insulator transition was at play in Sr2IrO4 provided the impetus for a burgeoning group of studies of the influence of strong spin-orbit interactions in “heavy” (4d- and 5d-) transition-element oxides. This book reviews recent experimental and theoretical evidence that the physical and structural properties of 4d- and 5d-oxides are decisively influenced by strong spin-orbit interactions that compete or collaborate with comparable Coulomb, magnetic exchange, and crystalline electric field interactions. The combined effect leads to unusual ground states and magnetic frustration that are unique to this class of materials. Novel couplings between the orbital/lattice and spin degrees of freedom, which lead to unusual types of magnetic order and other exotic phenomena, challenge current theoretical models. Of particular interest are recent investigations of iridates and ruthenates focusing on strong spin-orbit interactions that couple the lattice and spin degrees of freedom.

Abstract The influence of ethylhalogenes on the polarization of the phosphorescence of naphthalene was studied by means of the photoselection technique. It is shown that with increasing concentration and with increasing nuclear charge of the heavy atom the phosphorescence of naphthalene becomes increasingly depolarized. The influence of the external heavy atom on the Tx- and Tz- substate is stronger than on the Ty-substate. From the concentration dependence of the depolarizatign conclusions concerning the mechanism of the external spin-orbit-coupling are drawn. The dirept spin-orbit-coupling mechanism is ruled out. In the model discussed the variation of the external heavy atom effect with the intermolecular distance is related to overlap integrals.

The nonlinear optical susceptibility with inter-subband transitions between conduction band and valence band is theoretically calculated for CdSe/ZnS core-shell quantum dot (QD). Under the effective-mass approximation, the eigenenergy and wavefunction of electrons and holes have been calculated by solving stationary Schrödinger equation. The third-order nonlinear optical susceptibilities χ(3) of quadratic electro-optic effects (QEOE) have been also calculated in the case that spin-orbit splitting is considered.
