In condensed matter physics there is a novel phase termed 'quantum spin liquid', in which
strong quantum fluctuations prevent long-range magnetic order from being estab lished, and …

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

We report magnetometry data obtained on twin-free single crystals of Na 3 Co 2 SbO 6,
which is considered a candidate material for realizing the Kitaev honeycomb model for …

In the pursuit of developing routes to enhance magnetic Kitaev interactions in α-RuCl 3, as
well as probing doping effects, we investigate the electronic properties of α-RuCl 3 in …

The magnetism of Kitaev materials has been widely studied, but their charge properties and
the coupling to other degrees of freedom are less known. Here we investigate the charge …

The layered material α-RuCl3 is a promising candidate to realize the Kitaev quantum spin
liquid (QSL) state. However, at ambient pressure, deviations from the perfect Kitaev …

The Mott transition is one of the fundamental issues in condensed matter physics, especially
in the system with antiferromagnetic long-range order. However, such a transition is rare in …

A range of honeycomb-lattice compounds has been proposed and investigated in the
search for a topological Kitaev spin liquid. However, sizable Heisenberg interactions and …

Motivated by the recent experimental observation of the half-quantized thermal Hall
conductivity for the candidate material of the Kitaev spin liquid, α-RuCl 3 [Y. Kasahara …

We perform Raman spectroscopy studies on α-RuCl 3 at room temperature to investigate its
phase transitions of magnetism and structure under pressure. The Raman measurements …
