Abstract

We report magnetoresistance oscillations in high magnetic fields, B, up to 45 T and over a wide range of temperature in the Mott-like system Ca3Ru2O7. For B rotating within the ac-plane, slow and strong Shubnikov-de Haas (SdH) oscillations periodic in 1/B are observed for T≤1.5 K in the presence of metamagnetism. These oscillations are highly angular dependent and intimately correlated with the spin-polarization of the ferromagnetic state. For B||[110], oscillations are also observed but periodic in B (rather than 1/B) which persist up to 15 K. While the SdH oscillations are a manifestation of the presence of small Fermi surface (FS) pockets in the Mott-like system, the B-periodic oscillations, an exotic quantum phenomenon, may be a result of anomalous coupling of the magnetic field to the t2g-orbitals that makes the extremal cross-section of the FS field-dependent.
