Site-Specific Structure at Multiple Length Scales in Kagome Quantum Spin Liquid Candidates

Rebecca W. Smaha, Idris Boukahil, Charles J. Titus +11

Realizing a quantum spin liquid (QSL) ground state in a real material is a leading issue in condensed matter physics research. In this pursuit, it is crucial to fully characterize…

Anomalous thickness-dependent electrical conductivity in van der Waals layered transition metal halide, Nb_3Cl_8

Jiho Yoon, Edouard Lesne, Kornelia Sklarek +5

Understanding the electronic transport properties of layered, van der Waals transition metal halides (TMHs) and chalcogenides is a highly active research topic today. Of particular…

Evidence for a Parity Broken Monoclinic Ground State in the S = 1/2 Kagomé Antiferromagnet Herbertsmithite

N. J. Laurita, A. Ron, J. W. Han +9

Nearest-neighbor interacting S = 1/2 spins on the ideal Kagomé lattice are predicted to form a variety of novel quantum entangled states, including quantum spin-liquid (SL) and val…

Materializing Rival Ground States in the Barlowite Family of Kagome Magnets: Quantum Spin Liquid, Spin Ordered, and Valence Bond Crystal States

Rebecca W. Smaha, Wei He, Jack Mingde Jiang +13

The spin- kagome antiferromagnet is considered an ideal host for a quantum spin liquid ground state. We find that when the bonds of the kagome lattice are modulated wi…

Synthesis-Dependent Properties of Barlowite and Zn-Substituted Barlowite

Rebecca W. Smaha, Wei He, John P. Sheckelton +2

The mineral barlowite, Cu(OH)FBr, has been the focus of recent attention due to the possibility of substituting the interlayer Cu site with non-magnetic ions to deve…

NiMoO: zig-zag antiferromagnetic order an integer spin non-centrosymmetric honeycomb lattice

Jennifer R. Morey, Allen Scheie, John P. Sheckelton +2

Theoretical studies have predicted the existence of topological magnons in honeycomb compounds with zig-zag antiferromagnetic (AFM) order. Here we report the discovery of zig-zag A…
