Stacking-induced magnetic frustration and spiral spin liquid

Jianqiao Liu, Xu-Ping Yao, Gang Chen

Like the twisting control in magic angle twisted bilayer graphenes, the stacking control is another mechanical approach to manipulate the fundamental properties of solids, especial…

Intertwining SU() symmetry and frustration on a honeycomb lattice

Xu-Ping Yao, Rui Leonard Luo, Gang Chen

Large symmetry groups in quantum many-body systems could strongly enhance quantum fluctuations and thereby stabilize exotic quantum phases. Frustrated interactions were long known…

Fractionalization on the Surface: Is Type-II Terminated -TaS Surface an Anomalously Realized Spin Liquid?

Chao-Kai Li, Xu-Ping Yao, Jianpeng Liu +1

The type-II terminated -TaS surface of a three-dimensional -TaS bulk material realizes the effective spin- degree of freedom on each David star cluster with ${…

Twisted magnetic topological insulators

Chao-Kai Li, Xu-Ping Yao, Gang Chen

Motivated by the discovery of the quantum anomalous Hall effect in Cr-doped \ce{(Bi,Sb)2Te3} thin films, we study the generic states for magnetic topological insulators and explore…

Writing and deleting skyrmions with electric fields in a multiferroic heterostructure

Chao-Kai Li, Xu-Ping Yao, Gang Chen

Magnetic skyrmions are topological spin textures that can be used as information carriers for the next-generation information storage and processing. The electric-field controlling…

Topological chiral spin liquids and competing states in triangular lattice SU() Mott insulators

Xu-Ping Yao, Yonghao Gao, Gang Chen

SU() Mott insulators have been proposed and/or realized in solid-state materials and with ultracold atoms on optical lattices. We study the two-dimensional SU() antiferromagn…

Clusterization transition between cluster Mott insulators on a breathing Kagomé lattice

Xu-Ping Yao, Xiao-Tian Zhang, Yong Baek Kim +2

Motivated by recent experimental progress on various cluster Mott insulators, we study an extended Hubbard model on a breathing Kagomé lattice with a single electron orbital and $1…

Generic Spiral Spin Liquids

Xu-Ping Yao, Jian Qiao Liu, Chun-Jiong Huang +2

Spiral spin liquids are unique classical spin liquids that occur in many frustrated spin systems, but do not comprise a new phase of matter. Owing to extensive classical ground-sta…

Topological phase transition and nontrivial thermal Hall signatures in honeycomb lattice magnets

Yong Hao Gao, Xu Ping Yao, Gang Chen

We investigate spinon band topology and engineering from the interplay between long-ranged magnetic order and fractionalized spinons, as well as Zeeman coupling under external magn…

Pyrochlore U(1) spin liquid of mixed symmetry enrichments in magnetic fields

Xu-Ping Yao, Yao Dong Li, Gang Chen

We point out the experimental relevance and the detection scheme of symmetry enriched U(1) quantum spin liquids (QSLs) outside the perturbative spin-ice regime. Recent experiments…
