Bobkingite, a new coupled sawtooth chain platform
P. Peter Stavropoulos, Aleksandar Razpopov, Harrison LaBollita +3
We investigate the mineral bobkingite, \ce{Cu5(OH)8Cl2(H2O)2}, as a potential realization of the sawtooth chain. Using \textit{ab initio} methods, we estimate the magnetic exchange…

Lattice-charge coupling in a trilayer nickelate with intertwined density wave order
Xun Jia, Yao Shen, Harrison LaBollita +16
Intertwined charge and spin correlations are ubiquitous in a wide range of transition metal oxides and are often perceived as intimately related to unconventional superconductivity…
