Altermagnets with Topological Order in Kitaev Bilayers
Author(s): Aayush Vijayvargia, Ezra Day-Roberts, Antia S. Botana, and Onur Erten
Building on recent advancements in altermagnetism, we develop a highly frustrated magnetic model with Kitaev-like interactions that integrates key aspects of both quantum spin liquids and altermagnets. While the ground state is a gapless quantum spin liquid, our analysis indicates that an altermagne… [Phys. Rev. Lett. 135, 166701] Published Tue Oct 14, 2025
