Abstract

The interplay of spin-orbit coupling and electronic correlation in multiorbital crystalline systems has a profound impact on their magnetic and electronic properties. Unfortunately, these energy scales are similar in 5$d$ systems and are difficult to disentangle even with knowledge of the electronic energy levels. Here, the authors remove this ambiguity by comparing $L$2 and $L$3 edge resonant inelastic x-ray scattering measurements of 5${d}2$ double perovskites and using dipole selection rules to determine the energy scales of spin-orbit and Hund's coupling.
