Exchange interactions, Jahn-Teller coupling, and multipole orders in pseudospin one-half Mott insulators

Giniyat Khaliullin, Derek Churchill, P. Peter Stavropoulos +1

We develop a microscopic theory of multipole interactions and orderings in 5 transition metal ion compounds. In a cubic environment, the ground state of 5 ions is a non-K…

Optical magnons with dominant bond-directional exchange interactions in a honeycomb lattice iridate -LiIrO

Sae Hwan Chun, P. Peter Stavropoulos, Hae-Young Kee +6

We have used resonant inelastic x-ray scattering to reveal optical magnons in a honeycomb lattice iridate -LiIrO. The spectrum in the energy region 20-25 meV exhibit…

Spontaneous Chiral-Spin Ordering in Spin-Orbit Coupled Honeycomb Magnets

Qiang Luo, P. Peter Stavropoulos, Jacob S. Gordon +1

Frustrated magnets with highly degenerate ground states are at the heart of hunting exotic states of matter. Recent studies in spin-orbit coupled honeycomb magnets have generated i…

Magnetic Anisotropy in Spin-3/2 with Heavy Ligand in Honeycomb Mott Insulators: Application to CrI

P. Peter Stavropoulos, Xiaoyu Liu, Hae-Young Kee

Ferromagnetism in the two-dimensional CrI has generated a lot of excitement, and it was recently proposed that the spin-orbit coupling (SOC) in Iodine may generate bond-depende…

Field-Driven Gapless Spin Liquid in the Spin-1 Kitaev Honeycomb Model

Ciarán Hickey, Christoph Berke, Panagiotis Peter Stavropoulos +2

Recent proposals for spin-1 Kitaev materials, such as honeycomb Ni oxides with heavy elements of Bi and Sb, have shown that these compounds naturally give rise to antiferromagnetic…

Characterizing spin-one Kitaev quantum spin liquids

Ilia Khait, P. Peter Stavropoulos, Hae-Young Kee +1

Material realizations of the bond-dependent Kitaev interactions with =1/2 local moments have vitalized the research in quantum spin liquids. Recently, it has been proposed that…
