In the conventional spin noise spectroscopy, the probe laser light monitors fluctuations of the spin orientation of a paramagnet revealed as fluctuations of its gyrotropy, i.e., circular birefringence. For spins larger than 1/2, there…
Quantum spin liquid (QSL), a state characterized by exotic low energy fractionalized excitations and statistics is still elusive experimentally and may be gauged via indirect experimental signatures. Remnant of QSL phase may reflect in the…
Not all noise in experimental measurements is unwelcome. Certain fundamental noise sources contain valuable information about the system itself -- a notable example being the inherent voltage fluctuations that exist across any resistor…
Quantum spin liquid is an exotic quantum state of matter in magnets. This state is a spin analogue of the liquid helium which does not solidify down to the lowest temperature due to strong quantum fluctuations. In conventional fluids,…

The quantum spin liquid (QSL) is an exotic phase of magnetic materials where the spins continue to fluctuate without any symmetry breaking down to zero temperature. Among the handful reports of QSL with spin $S\ge$1, examples with magnetic…
An ensemble of spins oriented along the $z$ direction exhibits nonzero fluctuation in the transverse ($x$- and $y$-) components of the spin angular momentum in accordance with the uncertainty principle. When the spins obey a spin…
