The commercial availability of the Physical Property Measurement System (PPMS) by
Quantum Design has significantly increased access to heat capacity measurements on a …

Abstract The Gd3Ru4Al12 structure type compounds, where the rare-earth magnetic ions
form a breathing kagome lattice present a promising material landscape for exploring the …

The magnetic and thermodynamic properties of metallic single-crystalline Gd 3 Ru 4 Al 12,
wherein magnetic Gd-Al layers with a distorted kagome lattice structure and nonmagnetic …

The magnetic behavior of the compound, Gd 3 Ru 4 Al 12, which was reported about two
decades ago to crystallize in a hexagonal structure (space group P6 3/mmc), has not been …

Despite its deceptive simplicity, few concepts have more fundamental implications than
chirality, from the therapeutic activity of drugs to the fundamental forces of nature. In …

The kagome lattice is a paragon of geometrical frustration, long-studied for its association
with novel ground states including spin liquids. Many recently synthesized kagome materials …

In Ho 3 Ru 4 Al 12, the Ho atoms form a distorted kagome lattice. We performed
magnetization, magnetic-susceptibility, specific-heat, and ultrasound measurements on a …

There has been a growing interest in realizing topologically nontrivial states of matter in
band insulators, where a quantum Hall effect can appear as an intrinsic property of the band …

This paper addresses the electronic properties of N d 3 R u 4 A l 12 (hexagonal crystal
structure) with focus on its magnetic anisotropy that allows a comparison between single-ion …

Successive magnetic phase transitions at T 1= 17.5 K and T 2= 18.5 K in Gd3Ru4Al12, with
a distorted kagome lattice of Gd ions, is studied using resonant X-ray diffraction with …
