Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Double perovskites with the formula A 2 BB ′O 6 , such as Sr 2 FeIrO 6 , are being explored as unique platforms for unveiling diverse structural, electronic and magnetic properties. Inclusion of 3 d and 5 d transition metals in the B and B ′ sites, as in Sr 2 FeIrO 6 , enables the study of electron correlation and spin–orbit coupling effects to tailor promising properties. The structure of Sr 2 FeIrO 6 under ambient conditions has been widely debated, with theoretical and experimental studies suggesting several potential structures. This uncertainty complicates the understanding of its magnetic and electronic behaviours. High-pressure X-ray diffraction measurements, complemented by high-resolution powder X-ray diffraction studies under ambient conditions, have provided a definitive structural characterization of Sr 2 FeIrO 6 , crucial for interpreting its properties and guiding future research.
