Unlocking Flat-Band Physics in a Disordered Lattice: A Study of Spin-Orbit Interplay
Flat-band quantum materials and the combined effects of intrinsic spin-orbit coupling and nonmagnetic disorder on the extended Lieb-5 lattice are governed by strongly localized electronic states that generate unconventional thermodynamic and magnetic responses, according to recent research. Understanding Flat-Band Systems and the Extended Lieb-5 Lattice Flat-band systems feature strongly localized electronic states that can exhibit … Read more
