Title: Strain-induced topological transition in SrRu2O6 and CaOs2O6

Abstract

The topological property of SrRu$$_2$$O$$_6$$ and isostructural CaOs$$_2$$O$$_6$$ under various strain conditions is investigated using density functional theory. Based on an analysis of parity eigenvalues, we anticipate that a three-dimensional strong topological insulating state should be realized when band inversion is induced at the A point in the hexagonal Brillouin zone. For SrRu$$_2$$O$$_6$$, such a transition requires rather unrealistic tuning, where only the $$c$$ axis is reduced while other structural parameters are unchanged. However, given the larger spin-orbit coupling and smaller lattice constants in CaOs$$_2$$O$$_6$$, the desired topological transition does occur under uniform compressive strain. Our study paves a way to realize a topological insulating state in a complex oxide, which has not been experimentally demonstrated so far.
