    Evidence for a spinon Kondo effect in cobalt atoms on single-layer 1T-TaSe2

    Quantum spin liquids are highly entangled, disordered magnetic states that are expected to arise in frustrated Mott insulators and to exhibit exotic fractional excitations such as spinons and chargons. Despite...

    Evidence for quantum spin liquid behaviour in single-layer 1T-TaSe2 from scanning tunnelling microscopy

    Two-dimensional triangular-lattice antiferromagnets are predicted under some conditions to exhibit a quantum spin liquid ground state with no energy barrier to create emergent, fractionalized spinon excitation...

    Dynamic fingerprint of fractionalized excitations in single-crystalline Cu3Zn(OH)6FBr

    Beyond the absence of long-range magnetic orders, the most prominent feature of the elusive quantum spin liquid (QSL) state is the existence of fractionalized spin excitations, i.e., spinons. When the system o...

    A continuous metal-insulator transition driven by spin correlations

    While Mott insulators induced by Coulomb interactions are a well-recognized class of metal-insulator transitions, insulators purely driven by spin correlations are much less common, as the reduced energy scale...

    Antisymmetric linear magnetoresistance and the planar Hall effect

    The phenomena of antisymmetric magnetoresistance and the planar Hall effect are deeply entwined with ferromagnetism. The intrinsic magnetization of the ordered state permits these unusual and rarely observed m...

    Three-dimensional quantum Hall effect and metal–insulator transition in ZrTe5

    The discovery of the quantum Hall effect (QHE)1,2 in two-dimensional electronic systems has given topology a central role in condensed matter physics. Although the possibility of generalizing the QHE to three-dim...

    Scaling and data collapse from local moments in frustrated disordered quantum spin systems

    Recently measurements on various spin–1/2 quantum magnets such as H3LiIr2O6, LiZn2Mo3O8, ZnCu3(OH)6Cl2 and 1T-TaS2—all described by magnetic frustration and quenched disorder but with no other common relation—nev...

    Direct optical detection of Weyl fermion chirality in a topological semimetal

    Measuring the photocurrent response to circularly polarized mid-infrared light provides direct access to the chirality of Weyl fermions in Weyl semimetals — the property responsible for a range of exotic pheno...
