Square ice Coulomb phase as a percolated vertex lattice
Johann Coraux, Nicodème Rougier, Benjamin Canals +1
The square ice is a canonical example of a Coulomb phase in two dimensions: Its ground state is extensively degenerate and satisfies a local constraint on the spin arrangement (the…

Unusual Coulomb phase physics in the arctic square ice
Johann Coraux, Nicolas Rougemaille
The square ice is a two-dimensional spin liquid hosting a Coulomb phase physics. When constrained under specific boundary conditions, the so-called domain-wall boundary conditions,…
