Event description
ABSTRACT: Frustrated lattices, such as kagome structures, host unique quantum states, including spin liquids and unconventional superconductivity. Geometric frustration and Fermi surface nesting drive diverse SC pairing symmetries, such as -wave and s+. This seminar𝑑− highlights Re-based distorted kagome systems, Re₂Hf and Re₂Zr, where frustration stabilises novel superconducting states. I will present detailed experimental observations of these sAbstract Frustrated lattices, such as kagome structures, host unique quantum states, including spin liquids and unconventional superconductivity. Geometric frustration and Fermi surface nesting drive diverse SC pairing symmetries, such as -wave and s+. This seminar𝑑− highlights Re-based distorted kagome systems, Re₂Hf and Re₂Zr, where frustration stabilises novel superconducting states. I will present detailed experimental observations of these systems using microscopic techniques, including muon-spin spectroscopy.
