Quantum critical dynamics in the presence of disorder
Quantum phase transitions are abrupt qualitative changes of a system's groundstate occurring only at exactly zero temperature. Such critical points - although never reachable... -
Determining Microscopic Origins of the Thermal Hall Effect in Tb2Ti2O7
Studies of thermal Hall effects in insulating materials ascribe its microscopic origins to charge-neutral bosonic carriers generated by non-zero Berry curvature in the... -
Investigating the spin-nematic phase in the 1D quantum spin chain, Linarite
Linarite is a natural mineral which displays a rich and complex phase diagram in applied fields up to 10 T for temperatures below 2.8 K. As a frustrated J1-J2 chain material,... -
Magnetic excitations in a rare earth Kitaev material
Among the intense research on quantum spin liquid states, the Kitaev model has attracted great attention. Compounds consist of honeycomb layers with strong spin-orbit coupling,...
