Probing Multipolar Quantum Spin Liquids in non-Kramers Pyrochlore Materials with Magnetostriction.
ORAL
Abstract
Quantum spin liquids (QSLs) and Multipolar ordered states (MPOs) both share the property of being notoriously difficult to detect with conventional probes. Recently, lattice-based techniques are proposed as novel probes to detect MPOs. Motivated by this success, we investigate the possibility of detecting QSL when it arises from interacting multipolar moments. In this talk, we theoretically propose that spin-lattice coupling can be used as a powerful tool to probe such multipolar QSL phases.
