Quantum spin liquids form a novel class of matter where, despite the existence of strong
exchange interactions, spins do not order down to the lowest measured temperature …

Quantum spin liquids are unique quantum states of matter predicted to arise in low-
dimensional, frustrated, and quantum magnetic systems. Compared with conventional …

We investigate the magnetism of a previously unexplored distorted spin-1/2 kagome model
consisting of three symmetry-inequivalent nearest-neighbor antiferromagnetic Heisenberg …

Herbertsmithite, ZnCu 3 (OH) 6 Cl 2, is a two-dimensional kagome lattice realization of a
spin liquid, with evidence for fractionalized excitations and a gapped ground state. Such a …

Flat bands that do not merely arise from weak interactions can produce exotic physical
properties, such as superconductivity or correlated many-body effects. The quantum metric …

For the first time, a set of regular 2D sp 2/sp 3 hybrid superlattices of nanodiamond islands
confined between two graphene sheets (NDI-c2G) were proposed and explored using …

We present the crystal structure and magnetic properties of Y3Cu9 (OH) 19Cl8, a
stoichiometric frustrated quantum spin system with slightly distorted kagome layers. Single …

Employing complementary torque magnetometry and electron spin resonance on single
crystals of herbertsmithite, the closest realization to date of a quantum kagome …

Abstract Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) monolayers have
currently been of immense interest in materials research because of their versatility, and …

The topological Haldane model on a honeycomb lattice is a prototype of systems hosting
topological phases of matter without external fields. It is the simplest model exhibiting the …
