Anisotropic magnetism and Kondo-lattice behavior in the frustrated antiferromagnet Ce3MgBi5

Karolina Gornicka, Brenden R. Ortiz, Matthew S. Cook +3

We report the synthesis and physical characterization of single-crystalline Ce3MgBi5, a previously unexplored member of the Ce3MPn5 family. This compound crystallizes in the hexago…

Observation of the Magnus Nonlinear Hall effect from Chiral Weyl Monopoles

Heda Zhang, Nikolai Peshcherenko, Ning Mao +4

The nonlinear Hall effect (NLHE) connects crystalline symmetry to quantum geometry, offering a probe of band topology beyond linear transport. While most studies have focused on th…

Isolated spin ladders in LnTiSb (Ln:La-Nd) metals

Brenden R. Ortiz, Heda Zhang, Karolina Gornicka +4

Here we present the discovery and characterization of a series of antimonides LnTiSb (Ln: La--Nd) which exhibit well-isolated, rare-earth spin ladders. We disc…

Evidence of chiral fermion edge modes through geometric engineering of thermal Hall in -RuCl

Heda Zhang, Gabor B. Halasz, Sujoy Ghosh +5

The experimental observation of half-integer-quantized thermal Hall conductivity in the Kitaev candidate material -RuCl has served as smoking-gun signature of non-Abelian an…

Stability frontiers in the AMX kagome metals: The LnNbSn (Ln:Ce-Lu,Y) family and density-wave transition in LuNbSn

Brenden R. Ortiz, William R. Meier, Ganesh Pokharel +16

The kagome motif is a versatile platform for condensed matter physics, hosting rich interactions between magnetic, electronic, and structural degrees of freedom. In recent years, t…

Anisotropy of thermal conductivity oscillations in relation to the Kitaev spin liquid phase

Heda Zhang, Hu Miao, Thomas Z Ward +4

In the presence of external magnetic field, the Kitaev model could either hosts gapped topological anyon or gapless Majorana fermions. In -RuCl, the gapped and gapless cases…

The sample-dependent and sample-independent thermal transport properties of -RuCl

Heda Zhang, Andrew May, Hu Miao +5

We investigated the thermal transport properties of two -RuCl crystals with different degrees of stacking disorder to understand the origin of the previously reported oscill…
