Hidden Density-Wave Instability in the Trimer Ruthenate BaRuO

Gang Cao, Hengdi Zhao, Adrienne Bond +9

We report a hidden density-wave instability in the trimer-based ruthenate Ba4Ru3O10, previously regarded as a pure antiferromagnet with a phase transition at TA=100 K. This transit…

Emergent Inductance from Chiral Orbital Currents in a Bulk Ferrimagnet

Gang Cao, Hengdi Zhao, Yu Zhang +10

We report the discovery of a new form of inductance in the bulk ferrimagnet Mn3Si2Te6, which features strong spin-orbit coupling, large magnetic anisotropy, and pronounced magnetoe…

Interaction of Magnetic Fields with Spinons in a Fractionalized State

Yu Zhang, Hengdi Zhao, Tristan R. Cao +4

The 4d-electron trimer lattice exhibits either a quantum spin liquid (QSL) or a heavy-fermion strange metal (HFSM) phase, depending on Nb content. In the QSL state, itinerant spino…

Current-sensitive Hall effect in a chiral-orbital-current state

Yu Zhang, Yifei Ni, Pedro Schlottmann +3

Chiral orbital currents (COC) underpin a novel colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) in ferrimagnetic Mn3Si2Te6 [1]. Here we report the Hall effect in the COC state which exhibits the f…

Transition between heavy-fermion strange metal and quantum spin liquid in a 4d-electron trimer lattice

Hengdi Zhao, Yu Zhang, Pedro Schlottmann +2

We present experimental evidence that a heavy Fermi surface consisting of itinerant, charge-neutral spinons underpins both heavy-fermion-strange-metal (without f electrons) and qua…

Structural changes induced by electric currents in a single crystal of PrCuO

Susmita Roy, Feng Ye, Zachary Morgan +7

We demonstrate a novel approach to the structural and electronic property modification of perovskites, focusing on PrCuO, an undoped parent compound of a class of electron-…

Control of chiral orbital currents in a colossal magnetoresistance material

Yu Zhang, Yifei Ni, Hengdi Zhao +5

Colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) is an extraordinary enhancement of the electric conductivity in the presence of a magnetic field. It is conventionally associated with a field-indu…
