Observation of a metal-to-insulator transition with both Mott-Hubbard and Slater characteristics in Sr2IrO4 from time-resolved photocarrier dynamics

We perform a time-resolved optical study of Sr[subscript 2]IrO[subscript 4] to understand the influence of magnetic ordering on the low energy electronic structure of a strongly spin-orbit coupled J[subscript eff] = 1/2 Mott insulator. By studying the recovery dynamics of photoexcited carriers, we f...
