Thermally melted quadrupolar order and intrinsically quantum phases in 5$d^1$ double perovskites
Spin-orbit-coupled $d^1$ double perovskites exhibit a rich interplay of spin, orbital, and quadrupolar degrees of freedom (DOF), giving rise to competing magnetic and multipolar phases. Although quantum mean-field theories predict many exotic phases, their stability against thermal fluctuations and reproducibility with...
