报告内容:

A Mott insulator, characterized by the localization of electron due to strong electron-electron interactions, is typically accompanied by magnetic ordering. Charge carrier doping can suppress the insulating phase, but despite the decades study, how the coexistent magnetic order melts with doping is still unrevealed. We use Spin-polarized tunneling microscopy (SP-STM) to visualize the antiferromagnetic order in a strongly spin-orbit coupled Mott Insulator Sr2IrO4. We find that near Insulator- to-metal transition, the long-range AF order melts into a fragmented state with short-range correlations. Crucially, the static short-range AF order is locally uncorrelated with the spectral gap magnitude, reigniting the discussion of origin of electronic inhomogeneity in doped iridates.­­ Our work establishes SP-STM as a powerful tool for revealing atomic-scale magnetic information in complex oxides.
