Article Synopsis
- Recent research shows that cobaltites may serve as a valuable avenue for studying Kitaev physics in honeycomb structures and the Ising model in weakly linked chains.
- The study investigates the magnetic properties of SrCoGeO using neutron scattering, ab initio methods, and linear spin-wave theory to propose a modified Kitaev model for the interactions in this material.
- Findings indicate that external magnetic fields can shift the material's magnetic ordering and suggest modified pyroxenes could offer new insights into Kitaev physics.
The description of quantized collective excitations stands as a landmark in the quantum theory of condensed matter. A prominent example occurs in conventional magnets, which support bosonic magnons-quantized harmonic fluctuations of the ordered spins. In striking contrast is the recent discovery that strongly spin-orbital-coupled magnets, such as α-RuCl, may display a broad excitation continuum inconsistent with conventional magnons.
