A Néel-type antiferromagnetic order in the spin 1/2 rare-earth honeycomb YbCl${}_3$

Jie Xing, Erxi Feng, Yaohua Liu +8

Most of the searches for Kitaev materials deal with $4d/5d$ magnets with spin-orbit-coupled $J=1/2$ local moments such as iridates and $\alpha$-RuCl${}_3$. Here we propose the monoclini…
