Electron Doping a Kagome Spin Liquid

Herbertsmithite, ZnCu_{3}(OH)_{6}Cl_{2}, is a two-dimensional kagome lattice realization of a spin liquid, with evidence for fractionalized excitations and a gapped ground state. Such a quantum spin liquid has been proposed to underlie high-temperature superconductivity and is predicted to produce a...
