For example, electrons with a Dirac dispersion have been intensively studied in electronic systems such as graphene and topological insulators. However, charge is not a prerequisite for Dirac fermions, and the emergence of Dirac fermions without a charge degree of freedom has been theoretically predicted to be realized in Dirac quantum spin liquids. These quasiparticles carry a spin of 1/2 but are charge-neutral and so are called spinons. Here we show that the spin excitations of a kagome antiferromagnet, YCu

], are conical with a spin continuum inside, which is consistent with the convolution of two Dirac spinons. The predictions of a Dirac spin liquid model with a spinon velocity obtained from spectral measurements are in agreement with the low-temperature specific heat of the sample. Our results, thus, provide spectral evidence for a Dirac quantum spin liquid state emerging in this kagome lattice antiferromagnet. However, the locations of the conical spin excitations differ from those calculated by the nearest-neighbor Heisenberg model, suggesting the Dirac spinons have an unexpected origin.

粘土鉱物は身近な鉱物の一つであり、環境中の元素挙動に大きな影響を及ぼすにも関わらず、未解明な点が多い。粘土鉱物の重要な特性の一つに、同程度の大きさのイオンによる置換反応(同形置換)があり、粘土鉱物の強い吸着力の要因の一つと考えられているが、実際にどの程度影響を及ぼすか評価されたことはない。本発表では、系統的なモデル作成と第一原理計算を用いることで、同形置換が剥離強度に与える影響を数値的に評価した結果を報告する。

被引用回数:15 パーセンタイル:42.05(Engineering, Environmental)The effective and efficient removal of radioactive Cs from contaminated soil is highly urgent for the nuclear post-accident remediation. In present study, we achieved rapid Cs desorption from both a typical micaceous clay (i.e., vermiculitized biotite, VB) and actually contaminated soil by high-speed ion exchange through temperature-controlled continuous leaching with Mg-solutions in a column reactor. Cs-sorbed VB was firstly employed as a soil surrogate to explore the macro-Cs desorption process and micro-mechanism in detail.
