| contents | We study 2D spin and orbital systems, in a classical limit, in a regime where their coupling is so strong that orbital fluctuations are able to change sign of spin-exchange. Our aim is to understand how different phases in the orbital sector determine the ordering in the spin sector. The existence of intermediate vortex crystal (VC) phases, beside the canonical Kosterlitz and Thouless (KT) phases is now a well-established fact. Recently, we found [Phys. Rev. Research 6, 043154] that such a phase can explain phase diagram of FeSe. Motivated by this, here we develop a Renormalization Group (RG) method which can capture the formation of the VC phase. We achieve it by incorporating orbital vortex-vortex interactions through space-dependent incommensurability. Simultaneously, we incorporate the coupling with the spin sector for both short- and long-range interactions. We then derive a phase diagram including the effects of long-range interactions and spin-orbit coupling. The presence of the intermediate VC phase in the orbital sector changes the scaling of long-range spin-spin interactions, making them relevant under specific conditions. We thus find that the regular arrangement of orbital vortices can induce a long-range order in the 2D spin system. |
