The effects of spin-orbit coupling and electron correlations on the Fermi surface of Sr2RuO4 — •Guoren Zhang1, Evgeny Gorelov1, and Eva Pavarini1,2 — 1Institute for Advanced Simulation, Forschungszentrum Jülich, D-52425, Jülich, Germany — 2JARA High-Performance Computing
In this work we investigate the effects of spin-orbit coupling (SOC) and electron correlations on the Fermi surface (FS) of Sr2RuO4. We first study the spin-orbit coupling effects by comparing the FSs obtained by local-density approximation (LDA) and LDA+SOC calculations. Then, to study the effects of electron correlations, we perform LDA + dynamical mean field theory method (DMFT) and LDA+SOC+DMFT calculations. Our LDA and LDA+SOC results are consistent with previous theoretical works [1, 2]. Our LDA+SOC+DMFT results show that, in order to reproduce the experimental FS [3], it is key to include both effects.
