Interaction-driven spin polaron in itinerant flat-band ferromagnetism
Wei-Tao Zhou, Zhao-Yang Dong, Jian-Xin Li
Interaction effects are dramatically enhanced in flat-band systems due to quenched kinetics, facilitating the binding of single excitations into composite quasiparticles. In this w…

Ligand-SOC enhanced Kitaev antiferromagnet: Application to
Li-Hao Xia, Yi-Peng Gao, Zhao-Yang Dong +1
The search for Kitaev quantum spin liquids (Kitaev-QSLs) in real materials has mainly focused on - and -electron honeycomb systems. A recent experimental study on the $4f^5…

Itinerant topological magnons and spin excitons in twisted transition metal dichalcogenides: Mapping electron topology to spin counterpart
Wei-Tao Zhou, Zhao-Yang Dong, Zhao-Long Gu +1
Twisted transition metal dichalcogenides (tTMDs) provide a highly tunable platform to explore the interplay between strong correlation and topology. Among them, the properties invo…
