DOI: 10.1103/physrevlett.126.097201
Abstract: The quasi-two-dimensional Mott insulator α-RuCl_{3} is proximate to the sought-after Kitaev quantum spin liquid (QSL). In a layer of α-RuCl_{3} on graphene, the dominant Kitaev exchange is further enhanced by strain. Recently, quantum oscillation (QO)… read more here.
