Query: La-doping effect on spin-orbit coupled Sr2IrO4 probed by x-ray
  absorption spectroscopy   Sr2IrO4 was predicted to be an unconventional superconductor upon carrier
doping since it highly resembles the high-temperature cuprates. Here, to
understand carrier doping effect on spin-orbit coupled Mott insulator Sr2IrO4,
the electronic structure and local structure distortion for Sr2-xLaxIrO4 system
have been investigated by x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS). By comparing the
intensity of white-line features at the Ir L2,3 absorption edges, we observe
remarkably large branching ratios in La-doped compounds, greater than that of
the parent material Sr2IrO4, suggesting a strong spin-orbit interaction (SOI)
for Sr2IrO4-based system. Moreover, extended x-ray absorption fine structure
(EXAFS) spectra demonstrate more regular IrO6 octahedra, i.e. the weakened
crystal electric field (CEF) versus La-doping. By theoretical calculations, the
synergistic effect of regular IrO6 octahedra and electron doping is
established, which accounts for the transition from a Mott insulator to a
conductive state in Sr2-xLaxIrO4-based system.
