Artificial out-of-plane Ising antiferromagnet on the kagome lattice with very small farther-neighbor couplings

J Colbois, K Hofhuis, Z Luo, X Wang, A Hrabec… - Physical Review B, 2021 - APS
Despite their simple formulation, short-range classical antiferromagnetic Ising models on
frustrated lattices give rise to exotic phases of matter, in particular, due to their macroscopic …

[PDF][PDF] Spin-liquid behaviour and the interplay between Pokrovsky-Talapov and Ising criticality in the distorted, triangular-lattice, dipolar Ising antiferromagnet

A Smerald, F Mila - SciPost Physics, 2018 - scipost.org
We study the triangular-lattice Ising model with dipolar interactions, inspired by its realisation
in artificial arrays of nanomagnets. We show that a classical spin-liquid forms at intermediate …
