Vacancy-induced low-energy density of states in the Kitaev spin liquid

WH Kao, J Knolle, GB Halász, R Moessner, NB Perkins - Physical Review X, 2021 - APS
The Kitaev honeycomb model has attracted significant attention due to its exactly solvable
spin-liquid ground state with fractionalized Majorana excitations and its possible …

Disorder-induced quantum spin liquid in spin ice pyrochlores

L Savary, L Balents - Physical review letters, 2017 - APS
We propose that in a certain class of magnetic materials, known as non-Kramers “spin ice,”
disorder induces quantum entanglement. Instead of driving glassy behavior, disorder …
