Quantum states and intertwining phases in kagome materials

In solid materials, non-trivial topological states, electron correlations and magnetism are central ingredients for realizing quantum properties, including unconventional superconductivity, charge and spin density waves and quantum spin liquids. The kagome lattice, made up of corner-sharing triangles, can host these three ingredients...

Electronic Properties and Phase Transition in the Kagome Metal Yb_0.5Co₃Ge₃

The Kagome lattice is an important fundamental structure in condensed matter physics for investigating the interplay of electron correlation, topology, and frustrated magnetism. Recent work on Kagome metals in the AV3Sb5 (A = K, Rb, and Cs) family has shown a multitude of correlation-driven distortions, including symmetry breaking charge...
