Article Synopsis
  • Pyrochlore iridates are notable for studying complex phenomena due to their strong spin-orbit coupling, electronic interactions, and geometrically frustrated lattice structures.
  • In thin films of (111) YIrO with thicknesses ≤30 nm, researchers found a unique quantum disordered state at temperatures as low as 5 K, which was characterized by dispersionless magnetic excitations.
  • Below approximately 125 K, an anomalous Hall effect suggests the existence of chiral spin configurations, attributed to magnetic frustration in the lower-dimensional structure that leads to spin-liquid behavior without long-range order.

Iron-based superconductors provide a rich platform to investigate the interplay between unconventional superconductivity, nematicity, and magnetism. The electronic structure and the magnetic properties of iron-based superconductors are highly sensitive to the pnictogen height. Coherent excitation of the phonon by femtosecond laser directly modulates the pnictogen height, which has been used to control the physical properties of iron-based superconductors.
