Topological crystalline semimetals in non-symmorphic lattices

Yige Chen, Heung-Sik Kim, Hae-Young Kee

Numerous efforts have been devoted to reveal exotic semimetallic phases with topologically non-trivial bulk and/or surface states in materials with strong spin-orbit coupling. In p…

Crystal structure and magnetism in -RuCl3: an ab-initio study

Heung-Sik Kim, Hae-Young Kee

-RuCl has been proposed recently as an excellent playground for exploring Kitaev physics on a two-dimensional (2D) honeycomb lattice. However, structural clarification of th…

Molecular orbital polarization in Na2Ti2Sb2O: microscopic route to metal-metal transition without spontaneous symmetry breaking

Heung-Sik Kim, Hae-Young Kee

Ordered phases such as charge- and spin-density wave state accompany either full or partial gapping of Fermi surface (FS) leading a metal-insulator or metal-metal transition (MMT).…

Magnetic Orders Proximal to the Kitaev Limit in Frustrated Triangular Systems: Application to BaIrTiO

Andrei Catuneanu, Jeffrey G. Rau, Heung-Sik Kim +1

Frustrated transition metal compounds in which spin-orbit coupling (SOC) and electron correlation work together have attracted much attention recently. In the case of 5 transiti…

Spin-orbit excitations and electronic structure of the putative Kitaev magnet -RuCl

Luke J. Sandilands, Yao Tian, Anjan A. Reijnders +5

Mott insulators with strong spin-orbit coupling have been proposed to host unconventional magnetic states, including the Kitaev quantum spin liquid. The 4 system -RuCl ha…

Predominance of the Kitaev interaction in a three-dimensional honeycomb iridate: from ab-initio to spin model

Heung-Sik Kim, Eric Kin-Ho Lee, Yong Baek Kim

The recently discovered three-dimensional hyperhoneycomb iridate, -LiIrO, has raised hopes for the realization of dominant Kitaev interaction between spin-orbit entangle…
