Second order Zeeman interaction and ferroquadrupolar order in TmVO4

Abstract TmVO4 exhibits ferroquadrupolar order of the Tm 4f electronic orbitals at low temperatures, and is a model system for Ising nematicity. A magnetic field oriented along the c-axis constitutes a transverse effective field for the quadrupolar order parameter, continuously tuning the system to...
