Through a combination of crystal symmetry analysis and density functional theory calculations we unveil a possible microscopic origin of the unexpected insulating behavior reported in the honeycomb Kitaev material Cu$_2$IrO$_3$. Our study…

The double-perovskite A$_2$BB'O$_6$ with heavy transition metal ions on the ordered B' sites is an important family of compounds to study the interplay between electron correlation and spin-orbit coupling (SOC). Here we prepared…

A hallmark of strongly correlated quantum materials is the rich phase diagram resulting from competing and intertwined phases with nearly degenerate ground state energies. A well-known example is the copper oxides, where a charge density…

Due to the low dimensionality in the quantization of the electronic states and degree of freedom for device modulation, two-dimensional (2D) ferromagnetism plays a critical role in lots of fields. In this study, we perform first-principles…

We report an electron spin resonance investigation of the geometrically frustrated spin-1/2 kagome antiferromagnet vesignieite, BaCu$_3$V$_2$O$_8$(OH)$_2$. Analysis of the line widths and line shifts indicates the dominance of in-plane…

We have studied the magnetic properties of clinoatacamite Cu$_2$Cl(OH)$_3$, the parent compound of the quantum spin liquid candidate herbertsmithite and a longstanding puzzle among frustrated quantum magnets. As we reveal using…

We synthesized single crystals of the new hexagonal compounds A$_2$Cu$_3$SnF$_{12}$ with A=Cs and Rb, and investigated their magnetic properties. These compounds are composed of Kagom\'{e} layers of corner-sharing CuF$_6$-octahedra.…

Ni3V2O8 and Co3V2O8 have spin-1 and spin-3/2 magnetic lattices that are a new anisotropic variant of the Kagome net, wherein edge-sharing MO6 octahedra form the rises and rungs of a "Kagome staircase". The anisotropy largely relieves the…

$\require{mhchem}$The square-kagome lattice Heisenberg antiferromagnet is a highly frustrated Hamiltonian whose material realizations have been scarce. We theoretically investigate the recently synthesized $\ce{Na6Cu7BiO4(PO4)4Cl3}$ where a…

The vanadium oxyfluoride [NH4]2[C7H14N][V7O6F18] (DQVOF) is a geometrically frustrated magnetic bilayer material. The structure consists of S=1/2 kagome planes of V4+ d1 ions with S=1 V3+ d2 ions located between the kagome layers. Muon spin…

The spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ kagome antiferromagnet is an archetypal frustrated system predicted to host a variety of exotic magnetic states. We show using neutron scattering measurements that deuterated vesignieite…

Over the last few years, significant attention has been devoted to studying the kagome materials AV$_3$Sb$_5$ (A = K, Rb, Cs) due to their unconventional superconductivity and charge density wave (CDW) ordering. Recently ScV$_6$Sn$_6$ was…

The GdFeO$_{3}$-type perovskite CaCoO$_{3}$ has been successfully synthesized by high-pressure oxygen annealing for the oxygen deficient perovskite. A detailed structural analysis based on synchrotron X-ray diffraction data and a…

An oxygen hyperstoichiometric ferrite CaBaFe4O7+\delta (\delta \approx 0.14) has been synthesized using "soft" reduction of CaBaFe4O8. Like the oxygen stoichiometric ferrimagnet CaBaFe4O7, this oxide also keeps the hexagonal symmetry (space…

Transition metal oxides with 4d or 5d metals are of great interest due to the competing interactions, of the Coulomb repulsion and the itineracy of the d-electrons, opening a possibility of building new quantum ground states. Particularly…

Corkite, PbFe3(PO4)(SO4)(OH)6, an understudied relative of the jarosite family of Heisenberg antiferromagnets, has been synthesized and its magnetic properties characterized for the first time. Relative to natural samples, synthetic corkite…

Transition metal compounds with kagome structure have been found to exhibit a variety of exotic structural, electronic, and magnetic orders. These orders are competing with energies very close to each other, resulting in complex phase…

Recently, competing electronic instabilities, including superconductivity and density-wave-like order, have been discovered in vanadium-based kagome metals AV3Sb5 (A = K, Rb, Cs) with a nontrivial band topology. This finding stimulates wide…

Cu(1,3-benzenedicarboxylate) [Cu(1,3-bdc)] contains structurally perfect kagom\'{e} planes formed by Cu$^{2+}$ ions without the presence of diamagnetic defects. This organometallic compound should have served as a precious platform to…

Unconventional superconductivity (USC) in a highly correlated kagome system has been theoretically proposed for years, yet the experimental realization is hard to achieve. The recently discovered vanadium-based kagome materials, which…
