Magnetostriction of α-RuCl3 Flakes in the Zigzag Phase

Yun-Yi Pai et al.

Summary: The study found that exfoliated alpha-RuCl3 flakes lack R (3) symmetrical phase at low temperatures, and the Raman modes exhibit unexpected stochastic shifts in response to the applied magnetic field, possibly due to the emergence of magnetostrictive interactions.

Gapped magnetic ground state in quantum spin liquid candidate κ-(BEDT-TTF)2Cu2(CN)3

Bjorn Miksch et al.

Summary: The study investigated the κ-(BEDT-TTF)2Cu-2(CN)3 using multifrequency electron spin resonance (ESR) down to millikelvin temperatures, revealing a rapid decrease in spin susceptibility at 6 kelvin, suggesting the formation of a valence bond solid ground state. It also identified the dominant contribution of impurities to the ESR response when intrinsic spins form singlets, highlighting the pivotal role of defects in the low-energy properties of quantum spin systems without magnetic order.

Thickness and Spin Dependence of Raman Modes in Magnetic Layered Fe3GeTe2

Xiangru Kong et al.

Summary: In this study, phonon vibrations and Raman intensities of 2D layered Fe3GeTe2 were systematically investigated from bulk to monolayer structures through first-principles density functional theory calculations. It was found that the frequencies of Raman modes in Fe3GeTe2 depend significantly on the layer number and spin ordering, demonstrating notable spin-phonon interactions in the material. The results also suggest that Raman modes can be used to characterize sample thickness and interlayer spin ordering in this 2D magnet.

Systematic extraction of crystal electric-field effects and quantum magnetic model parameters in triangular rare-earth magnets

Christopher A. Pocs et al.

Summary: The primary goal at the intersection of theoretical and experimental quantum magnetism is to investigate exotic spin states, particularly quantum spin liquids (QSLs). Rare-earth ions introduce competitive energy scales beyond the traditional paradigms of geometrical frustration, resulting in anisotropic effective spin models with intrinsic frustration. By using experimental techniques, the extraction of Stevens operators determining the full CEF spectrum of Yb3+ was successfully achieved, leading to crucial insights for interpreting anisotropic magnetic susceptibility measurements.

Temperature evolution of the phonon dynamics in the Kitaev spin liquid

Kexin Feng et al.

Summary: In this study, the phonon dynamics in the honeycomb Kitaev spin model at finite temperatures is explored. It is shown that the fractionalized spin excitations, itinerant Majorana fermions, and static Z(2) fluxes have distinct effects on the phonon dynamics, making it a promising tool for investigating Kitaev spin liquid candidate materials. The signature of the fractionalized excitations in the thermodynamic behavior of sound attenuation and phonon Hall viscosity is focused on, revealing the influence of emergent disorder on the Majorana fermions introduced by the Z(2) fluxes.

Crystalline electric field excitations in the quantum spin liquid candidate NaYbSe2

Zheng Zhang et al.

Summary: Through experiments and calculations, we investigated the crystalline electric field excitations in NaYbSe2 and found that with increasing temperatures, the CEF levels shift to higher energies, which is in contrast to the nonmagnetic NaLuSe2 where this phenomenon was not observed.
