Supercooled Jahn-Teller ice

When the spins on the frustrated pyrochlore lattice obey the celebrated 2-in-2-out ice rule, they stay in a correlated disordered phase and break the third law of thermodynamics. Similarly, if the atomic ions on the pyrochlore lattice move in and outward of the tetrahedra, they may obey a constraint...
