Possible Realization of Kitaev Spin Liquids in van der Waals Heterostructures of $\hat{I}\pm$-RuCl${}_3$ and Cr$X_3$ ($X$=Cl and I)

Lingzhi Zhang, Yukitoshi Motome

Despite the presence of the exact solution and well-established recipe for its realization, the quest for the Kitaev spin liquid in real materials remains exceptionally challenging…
