Scattering Continuum and Possible Fractionalized Excitations in -RuCl

Luke J. Sandilands, Yao Tian, Kemp W. Plumb +2

The combination of electronic correlation and spin-orbit coupling is thought to precipitate a variety of highly unusual electronic phases in solids, including topological and quant…

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…

Fourier analysis of the IR response of van der Waals materials

Anjan A. Reijnders, L. J. Sandilands, G. Pohl +6

In this letter, we report on an analytical technique for optical investigations of semitransparent samples. By Fourier transforming optical spectra with Fabry-Perot resonances we e…

Optical evidence of surface state suppression in Bi based topological insulators

Anjan A. Reijnders, Y. Tian, L. J. Sandilands +13

A key challenge in condensed matter research is the optimization of topological insulator (TI) compounds for the study and future application of their unique surface states. Truly…

-RuCl3: a Spin-Orbit Assisted Mott Insulator on a Honeycomb Lattice

K. W. Plumb, J. P. Clancy, L. Sandilands +5

We examine the role of spin-orbit coupling in the electronic structure of -RuCl3, in which Ru ions in 4d5 configuration form a honeycomb lattice. The measured optical spectra ex…

Fabrication and Characterization of Topological Insulator BiSe Nanocrystals

S. Y. F. Zhao, C. Beekman, L. J. Sandilands +6

In the recently discovered class of materials known as topological insulators, the presence of strong spin-orbit coupling causes certain topological invariants in the bulk to diffe…
