We review the recent advances and current challenges in the field of strong spin-orbit
coupled Kitaev materials, with a particular emphasis on the physics beyond the exactly …

The Kitaev model, a honeycomb network of spins with bond-dependent anisotropic
interactions, is a rare example of a system with a quantum spin liquid ground state. Although …

λ-RhO2, a prototype 4d transition metal oxide, has been prepared by the oxidative
delithiation of spinel LiRh2O4 using ceric ammonium nitrate. Average-structure studies of …

The physics of spin-orbit entangled magnetic moments of 4d and 5d transition metal ions on
a honeycomb lattice has been much explored in the search for unconventional magnetic …

The Kitaev model, which hosts a quantum spin liquid (QSL) in the ground state, was
originally defined on a two-dimensional (2D) honeycomb lattice, but can be straightforwardly …

Candidate materials for the Kitaev spin liquid generically have residual interactions beyond
the Kitaev coupling. It therefore becomes necessary to understand how signatures of the …

In this study, we propose that the signatures of spin fractionalization in quantum magnets
can be identified through a detailed analysis of the temperature dependence of the …

${\lambda} $-RhO $ _2 $, a prototype 4d transition metal oxide, has been prepared by
oxidative delithiation of spinel LiRh $ _2 $ O $ _4 $ using ceric ammonium nitrate. Average …

Inelastic neutron scattering (INS) measurements of powder D $ _3 (^{7} $ Li)($^{193} $ Ir) $
_2 $ O $ _6 $ reveal low energy magnetic excitations with a scattering cross section that is …

In materials with significant interactions between magnetic spins, the reduction of
temperature below the scale of the magnetic interaction of the spins $ J\approx k_BT …
