Incommensurate counterrotating magnetic order stabilized by Kitaev interactions in the layered honeycomb $α$-Li$_2$IrO$_3$

Show other versions (1)

The layered honeycomb magnet α-Li2IrO3 has been theoretically proposed as a candidate to display unconventional magnetic behaviour associated with Kitaev interactions between spin-orbit entangled jeff = 1=2 magnetic moments on a honeycomb lattice. Here we report single crystal magnetic resonant x-ra...
