Quantum transitions of nematic phases in a spin-1 bilinear-biquadratic model and their implications for FeSe

Since its discovery, iron-based superconductivity has been known to develop near an antiferromagnetic order, but this paradigm fails in the iron chalcogenide FeSe, whose single-layer version holds the record for the highest superconducting transition temperature in the iron-based superconductors. Th...
