Disorder in a quantum spin liquid: flux binding and local moment formation.
We study the consequences of disorder in the Kitaev honeycomb model, considering both site dilution and exchange randomness. We show that a single vacancy binds a flux and induces a local moment. This moment is polarized by an applied field h: in the gapless phase, for small h the local susceptibili...
