摘要:

表现出磁阻挫的量子材料与包括高Tc超导性、拓扑有序性和量子自旋液体(QSL)在内的多种现象有关。QSL是与物质的量子纠缠类流体状态相关的量子相位(QP)。以前的实验QSL候选材料通常被解释为一个单一的QP,虽然理论表明,许多不同的QP是密切竞争的典型挫折自旋模型。在这里,我们报告的三角晶格QSL候选材料1 T-TaS 2的温度相关的μ子自旋弛豫和比热测量相结合,提供竞争的量子点的证据。所测得的属性被分配到1 T-TaS 2的分层电荷密度波结构内的单个QSL层的阵列,并且它们的特征参数可以被解释为不同的Z2 QSL相。目前的结果表明,QSL描述可以扩展到最低温度之外,为寻找新型量子材料提供了新的视角。

英文摘要:

Quantum materials exhibiting magnetic frustration are connected to diverse phenomena including high-Tc superconductivity, topological order and quantum spin liquids (QSLs). A QSL is a quantum phase (QP) related to a quantum-entangled fluid-like state of matter. Previous experiments on QSL candidate materials are usually interpreted in terms of a single QP, although theories indicate that many distinct QPs are closely competing in typical frustrated spin models. Here we report on combined temperature-dependent muon spin relaxation and specific heat measurements for the triangular-lattice QSL candidate material 1T-TaS2 that provide evidence for competing QPs. The measured properties are assigned to arrays of individual QSL layers within the layered charge density wave structure of 1T-TaS2 and their characteristic parameters can be interpreted as those of distinct Z2 QSL phases. The present results reveal that a QSL description can extend beyond the lowest temperatures, offering a new perspective in the search for novel quantum materials.
