We use time-domain terahertz spectroscopy to measure the low energy conductivity and magnons in RuCl$_3$ under external magnetic field. At zero field, an oscillation with a frequency of 0.62 THz is clearly observed in time-domain spectrum…
In the search for experimental realizations of bond-anisotropic Kitaev interactions and resulting spin-liquid phases, the layered magnet $\alpha$-RuCl$_3$ is a prime candidate. Its modelling typically involves Heisenberg, Kitaev, and…
Honeycomb lattice Kitaev magnets exhibit exotic magnetic properties governed by the Kitaev interaction. This study delves into $\alpha$-RuCl$_3$, a prototypical example described by effective Hamiltonians encompassing bond-dependent Kitaev…
We investigated the spin excitations of magnetoelectric $\text{LiFePO}_4$ by THz absorption spectroscopy in magnetic fields up to 33$\,$T. By studying their selection rules, we found not only magnetic-dipole, but also electric-dipole active…
Three kinds of magnetic resonance signals were detected in crystals of the spin-gap magnet TlCuCl_3. First, we have observed the microwave absorption due to the excitation of the transitions between the singlet ground state and the excited…
Low-energy magnon excitations in magnetoelectric LiFePO$_4$ have been investigated by high-frequency high-field electron spin resonance spectroscopy in magnetic fields up to B = 58 T and frequencies up to f = 745 GHz. For magnetic fields…
Topologically ordered states of matter are generically characterized by excitations with quantum number fractionalization. A prime example is the spin liquid realized in Kitaev's honeycomb-lattice compass model where spin-flip excitations…
We study the spin-wave excitations in $\alpha$-RuCl$_3$ by the spin-wave theory. Starting from the five-orbital Hubbard model and the perturbation theory, we derive an effective isospin-$1/2$ model in the large Hubbard ($U$) limit. Based on…
Low-energy magnetic excitations in the spin-1/2 chain compound (C$_6$H$_9$N$_2$)CuCl$_3$ [known as (6MAP)CuCl$_3$] are probed by means of tunable-frequency electron spin resonance. Two modes with asymmetric (with respect to the $h\nu=g\mu_B…
We study the field-induced magnetization processes of extended Heisenberg-Kitaev models on the honeycomb lattice, taking into account off-diagonal and longer-range exchange interactions, using a combination of Monte-Carlo simulations,…
In RuCl$_3$, inelastic neutron scattering and Raman spectroscopy reveal a continuum of non-spin-wave excitations that persists to high temperature, suggesting the presence of a spin liquid state on a honeycomb lattice. In the context of the…
Layered {\alpha}-RuCl3 is a promising material to potentially realize the long-sought Kitaev quantum spin liquid with fractionalized excitations. While evidence of this exotic state has been reported under a modest in-plane magnetic field,…
We compute the rotational anisotropy of the free energy of $\alpha$-RuCl$_3$ in an external magnetic field. This quantity, known as the magnetotropic susceptibility, $k$, relates to the second derivative of the free energy with respect to…
An external magnetic field can induce a transition in $\alpha$-RuCl$_3$ from an ordered zigzag state to a disordered state that is possibly related to the Kitaev quantum spin liquid. Here we present new field dependent inelastic neutron…
Thermodynamics of the Kitaev honeycomb magnet $\alpha$-RuCl$_3$ is studied for different directions of in-plane magnetic field using measurements of the magnetic Gr\"uneisen parameter $\Gamma_B$ and specific heat $C$. We identify two…
We argue that several empirical constraints strongly restrict parameters of the effective microscopic spin model describing $\alpha$-RuCl$_3$. In particular, such constraints dictate a substantial \emph{positive} off-diagonal anisotropic…
Recent studies have brought $\alpha$-RuCl$_3$ to the forefront of experimental searches for materials realizing Kitaev spin-liquid physics. This material exhibits strongly anisotropic exchange interactions afforded by the spin-orbit…
We present comprehensive electron spin resonance (ESR) studies of in-plane oriented single crystals of $\alpha$-RuCl$_3$, a quasi-two-dimensional material with honeycomb structure, focusing on its high-field spin dynamics. The measurements…
We report on a study of the electronic and magnetic properties of the triangular antiferromagnetic $\{Cu_3\}$ single-molecule magnet, based on spin density functional theory. Our calculations show that the low-energy magnetic properties are…
We report high-field electron spin resonance studies of the altermagnetic material $\alpha$-MnTe. In magnetic fields applied parallel to the triangular Mn$^{2+}$ layers we observed a single resonance line, corresponding to an…
