Hidden Density-Wave Instability in the Trimer Ruthenate BaRuO
Gang Cao, Hengdi Zhao, Adrienne Bond +9
We report a hidden density-wave instability in the trimer-based ruthenate Ba4Ru3O10, previously regarded as a pure antiferromagnet with a phase transition at TA=100 K. This transit…
CsCrTe: Interwoven Reconstructed Archimedean and Kagome Lattices with a Possible Phase Transition near 130 K
Zhen Zhao, Ruwen Wang, Hua Zhang +12
Chromium-based materials with complex lattice geometries provide an important platform for investigating correlated electronic and magnetic states. However, Cr-based compounds with…
Field-Tailoring Quantum Materials via Magneto-Synthesis: Metastable Metallic and Magnetically Suppressed Phases in a Trimer Iridate
Tristan R. Cao, Hengdi Zhao, Xudong Huai +4
We demonstrate that applying modest magnetic fields during high-temperature crystal growth can profoundly alter the structure and ground state of a spin-orbit-coupled, antiferromag…
Emergent Inductance from Chiral Orbital Currents in a Bulk Ferrimagnet
Gang Cao, Hengdi Zhao, Yu Zhang +10
We report the discovery of a new form of inductance in the bulk ferrimagnet Mn3Si2Te6, which features strong spin-orbit coupling, large magnetic anisotropy, and pronounced magnetoe…
Dynamical crossover between stretched- and compressed-exponential relaxation in a photoexcited crystal
Tyler Carbin, Joel Herman, Xinshu Zhang +6
Anomalous relaxation is one of the hallmarks of disordered systems. Following perturbation by an external source, many glassy, jammed and amorphous systems relax as a stretched or…
Interaction of Magnetic Fields with Spinons in a Fractionalized State
Yu Zhang, Hengdi Zhao, Tristan R. Cao +4
The 4d-electron trimer lattice exhibits either a quantum spin liquid (QSL) or a heavy-fermion strange metal (HFSM) phase, depending on Nb content. In the QSL state, itinerant spino…
