Neutron scattering signatures of the 3D hyper-honeycomb Kitaev quantum spin-liquid

A. Smith, J. Knolle, D. L. Kovrizhin +2

Motivated by recent synthesis of the hyper-honeycomb material $\beta$-$\mathrm{L}{\mathrm{i}}_2\mathrm{Ir}{\mathrm{O}}_3$, we study the dynamical structure factor (DSF) of the corresponding 3D Kitaev quantum spin-…
