High‐Entropy Magnetism of Murunskite

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Ivica Zivkovic, Thomas La Grange, Davor Tolj, Rongrong Cai

Murunskite (K 2 FeCu 3 S 4 ) bridges the two known families of high‐temperature superconductors, cuprates and iron‐pnictides, structurally and electronically. Like these families, murunskite exhibits an antiferromagnetic (AF)‐like response with an ordered ...

Magnetic Field Induced Quantum Spin Liquid in the Two Coupled Trillium Lattices of K2Ni2(SO4)(3)

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Arnaud Magrez, Ivica Zivkovic, Peter Babkevich, Luc Testa, Virgile Yves Favre, Nagabhushan Ganesh Hegde

Quantum spin liquids are exotic states of matter that form when strongly frustrated magnetic interactions induce a highly entangled quantum paramagnet far below the energy scale of the magnetic interactions. Three-dimensional cases are especially challengi ...
