Kitaev Quantum Spin Liquids

Y Matsuda, T Shibauchi, HY Kee - arxiv preprint arxiv:2501.05608, 2025 - arxiv.org
Quantum spin liquids (QSLs) represent exotic states of matter where quantum spins interact
strongly yet evade long-range magnetic order down to absolute zero. Characterized by non …

Thermal Hall response of an abelian chiral spin liquid at finite temperatures

A Maity, H Guo, S Sachdev, V Tripathi - arxiv preprint arxiv:2411.15304, 2024 - arxiv.org
Thermal Hall transport has emerged as a valuable tool for probing the fractionalized
excitations in chiral quantum spin liquids. Observing quantized thermal Hall response …

Valence Bond Crystal Ground State of the 1/9 Magnetization Plateau in the Spin-1/2 Kagome Lattice

K Morita - Journal of the Physical Society of Japan, 2024 - journals.jps.jp
We investigate the ground state of a spin-1/2 kagome antiferromagnet at the 1/9
magnetization plateau, focusing primarily on six types of valence bond crystal (VBC) …

Spin excitations arising from anisotropic Dirac spinons in YCu(OD)Br[Br(OD)]

L Han, Z Zeng, B Liu, M Kofu, K Nakajima… - arxiv preprint arxiv …, 2024 - arxiv.org
A Dirac quantum spin liquid hosts Dirac spinons, which are low-energy fractionalized neutral
quasiparticles with spin 1/2 that obey the Dirac equation. Recent studies have revealed …
