Spin nematic liquid crystal and scalar spin chirality in tetragonal lattice YbMnBi

Yaofeng Xie, Sijie Xu, Yu Pan +22

A spin nematic order, analogous to the nematic liquid crystal, characterizes the spontaneous breaking of spin-space rotational symmetry while preserving time-reversal () symmetr…

Stacking-dependent anisotropic altermagnetism in VNbS

Chris J. Lygouras, Nathan Prouse, Jack H. Drouin +14

We report profound impacts of the stacking sequence of triangular lattices of magnetic transition metal ions intercalated between the layers of the van der Waals material NbS.…

Field-rigid Ising antiferromagnetism with giant spin-flip fields in Van der Waals UOTe

Zackary Rehfuss, Shannon Gould, Joanna Blawat +9

Van der Waals antiferromagnets provide a route to thickness-controlled magnetic order, but few combine high-temperature Ising order with conducting, correlated, and topological ele…

KCo(TeO) 2.5 HO : A mineral-inspired pseudo-honeycomb cobalt dimer antiferromagnet

Austin M. Ferrenti, Maxime A. Siegler, Yiqing Hao +9

In recent years, magnetically-frustrated triangular and honeycomb lattice cobaltates have seen extensive study in the pursuit of a quantum spin liquid (QSL) state in a real materia…

Kondo driven suppression of charge density wave in Van der Waals material UTe

Justin Shotton, Jiahui Zhu, David Martinez +22

Competing electronic instabilities lie at the heart of emergent phenomena in quantum materials. In low-dimensional metals, Fermi-surface nesting can drive charge density wave (CDW)…

Phase Diagram and Spectroscopic Signatures of a Supersolid in Quantum Ising Magnet KCo(SeO)

Tong Chen, Alireza Ghasemi, Junyi Zhang +17

A supersolid is a quantum-entangled state of matter exhibiting the dual characteristics of superfluidity and solidity. Theory predicts that hard-core bosons with repulsive interact…
