Spin ice state in frustrated magnetic pyrochlore materials

ST Bramwell, MJP Gingras - Science, 2001 - science.org
A frustrated system is one whose symmetry precludes the possibility that every pairwise
interaction (“bond”) in the system can be satisfied at the same time. Such systems are …

Magnetic pyrochlore oxides

JS Gardner, MJP Gingras, JE Greedan - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2010 - APS
Within the past 20 years or so, there has occurred an explosion of interest in the magnetic
behavior of pyrochlore oxides of the type A 2 3+ B 2 4+ O 7, where A is a rare-earth ion and …

Three-dimensional flat bands in pyrochlore metal CaNi2

JP Wakefield, M Kang, PM Neves, D Oh, S Fang… - Nature, 2023 - nature.com
Electronic flat-band materials host quantum states characterized by a quenched kinetic
energy. These flat bands are often conducive to enhanced electron correlation effects and …

Low-temperature activation of methane on the IrO2(110) surface

Z Liang, T Li, M Kim, A Asthagiri, JF Weaver - Science, 2017 - science.org
Methane undergoes highly facile C–H bond cleavage on the stoichiometric IrO2 (110)
surface. From temperature-programmed reaction spectroscopy experiments, we found that …

Superconducting phases of -electron compounds

C Pfleiderer - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2009 - APS
Intermetallic compounds containing f-electron elements display a wealth of superconducting
phases, which are prime candidates for unconventional pairing with complex order …

Group-theoretical classification of multipole order: Emergent responses and candidate materials

H Watanabe, Y Yanase - Physical Review B, 2018 - APS
The multipole moment is an established concept of electrons in solids. Entanglement of spin,
orbital, and sublattice degrees of freedom is described by the multipole moment, and …

Experimental Insights into Quantum Spin Ice Physics in Dipole–Octupole Pyrochlore Magnets

EM Smith, E Lhotel, S Petit… - Annual Review of …, 2024 - annualreviews.org
We review a key subset of the experimental studies that have recently focused on cubic
pyrochlore magnets whose pseudospin-1 2 degrees of freedom have mixed dipolar and …

A parity-breaking electronic nematic phase transition in the spin-orbit coupled metal Cd2Re2O7

JW Harter, ZY Zhao, JQ Yan, DG Mandrus, D Hsieh - Science, 2017 - science.org
Strong electron interactions can drive metallic systems toward a variety of well-known
symmetry-broken phases, but the instabilities of correlated metals with strong spin-orbit …

Odd-parity superconductivity in the vicinity of inversion symmetry breaking in spin-orbit-coupled systems

V Kozii, L Fu - Physical review letters, 2015 - APS
We study superconductivity in spin-orbit-coupled systems in the vicinity of inversion
symmetry breaking. We find that, because of the presence of spin-orbit coupling, fluctuations …

Non-Abelian braiding of Weyl nodes via symmetry-constrained phase transitions

S Chen, A Bouhon, RJ Slager, B Monserrat - Physical Review B, 2022 - APS
Weyl semimetals are arguably the most paradigmatic form of a gapless topological phase.
While the stability of Weyl nodes, as quantified by their topological charge, has been …
