Experimental Studies on Single Crystal Samples of Spin Liquid Materials

ORAL

Abstract

Frustrated antiferromagnetism on spin lattices with triangular geometries receives increasing attention due to the promise of RVB spin liquids. I will discuss about recent thermodynamic and scattering studies on highly frustrated magnets, such as triangular kappa-(ET)$_{2}$Cu$_{2}$(CN)$_{3}$ and kagome ZnCu$_{3}$(OH)$_{6}$Cl$_{2}$. It was only until recent years that large crystal samples have been successfully grown for leading spin liquid candidates. Latest experimental studies will be introduced.
