Novel Strongly Spin-Orbit Coupled Quantum Dimer Magnet: Yb${}_2$Si${}_2$O${}_7$

Gavin Hester, H. S. Nair, T. Reeder +9

The quantum dimer magnet (QDM) is the canonical example of quantum magnetism. The QDM state consists of entangled nearest-neighbor spin dimers and often exhibits a field-induced tr…
