Hyperhoneycomb Iridate β−Li2IrO3 as a Platform for Kitaev Magnetism

A complex iridium oxide $\ensuremath{\beta}\text{\ensuremath{-}}{\mathrm{Li}}_{2}{\mathrm{IrO}}_{3}$ crystallizes in a hyperhoneycomb structure, a three-dimensional analogue of honeycomb lattice, and is found to be a spin-orbital Mott insulator with ${J}_{\text{eff}}=1/2$ moment. Ir ions are connect... View More
