Giant anisotropic magnetoresistance in few-layer α-RuCl3 tunnel junctions

Mathieu Massicotte, Sam Dehlavi, Xiaoyu Liu +12

The spin-orbit assisted Mott insulator $\alpha$-RuCl3 is proximate to the coveted quantum spin liquid (QSL) predicted by the Kitaev model. In the search for the pure Kitaev QSL, reducin…
